Functional and good value
Great place for the price. I don't think I've found many hostels that include a private bathroom and shower plus AC for $25. I'd highly recommend if you just need a comfortable place to crash in the area.

Great location, so-so cleanliness, friendly staff
Hostel has no elevator and the owner may or may not be there to help you (I had to frantically pack my things the night before my check out as the owner informed me she would not be available the morning after unfortunately). However, the staff are very friendly and try their best to help given the circumstances. The location is very convenient which was the best part of my stay. Single rooms are quite cheap and have an individual wet room with toilet and showerhead, which was really great. Just be warned that if your luggage is heavy, the single rooms are on the third and fourth floors so expect to have to drag it up (although there is a metal ramp on the side to assist with this). Not sure if I'd want to stay here again but seems to be decent compared to other places in Korea, based on reviews by people online. If you're travelling alone and want to be within walking distance of Gwangjang market (a must-go), Dongdaemun, and Myeong-dong (about 20 minutes by foot), this has an ideal location with basic living quarters, so weigh the cost-benefit of it to suit your situation.

Recommend to people who like silent.
The hostel is near to the Gwangjang market and Cheonggyecheon stream. The overall was good. This hostel has plenty of bathrooms. One who wish to book this hostel need to take note that this area was less busy and all shops will be closed after 7-8pm.

very small, but convenient place
I had the last room at the 2nd floor, it was really hard to get to my room. I couldn't find the room at once. But the staff was very polite and kind. It was really quiet so I had to be really quiet also. And I think the wall were too thin? I guess. I could hear everyone move or go down stairs at night time.

Pleasant
It was a pleasant stay although a few things.... The check out time is too early (10 AM). There is also a $10 deposit fee upon entry. If you go past the 10am checkout time, they keep the $10 deposit fee. The shower is also unacceptably low. Barely any water comes out and the owner had declared it to be like that in all rooms. So this hostel is a pleasant place to stay if you cannot find another lodging anywhere else in Seoul.

You get what you paid
Located in business neighborhood with printing shops. Located in small alleys. 15 min walking distance to DongDaeMun. No lift so have to carry luggage up stairs to room. morning shift front desk doesn't speak English, some communication problem there. No nearby local restaurants or convenience shops. Not recommended to stay in Seoul.

深夜遅くのチェックインの際は要注意
今回夜遅くに仁川空港到着だったためどうしても宿に着くのが深夜0時を過ぎてしまうので、予約時にそれでも大丈夫か問い合わせました。その時には、ベルを押してくれれば対応するので心配無いとのことでしたが、出発前日午後にメールが届いていて、24時を過ぎてのチェックインはできないので、翌日7時以降にチェックインしてくれと連絡が来ていました。これに気づいたのが飛行機出発直前でした。メールのやりとりの履歴も残っていたので、予約時は対応するとのことだったのにこれでは困る!とメールを送っても返事はなく、じゃあ一泊キャンセルするから返金してくれとのメールには、すぐにNOの返事。Hotels.comに問い合わせても混み合っていてつながらず困ってしまい、韓国の知り合いに相談して電話で問い合わせてもらったところ、対応するとの連絡が来ました。結局深夜のチェックインは無事に対応してもらいましたが、韓国人が問い合わせなればどうなっていたのかわかりません。宿の周囲は夜中は車もあまり通らず、タクシーもすぐにはつかまえられなかったと思うので、宿無しになるところでした。最初から対応できないとの回答であれば、別の宿を探したのに。韓国の友人様々です。 こんなことがありましたが、このチェックイン前のトラブル以外は滞在中特に問題なく過ごせました。 現在はチェックインの欄に24時以降は対応できないとの記載がありますが、万が一飛行機が遅れたりして深夜24時を過ぎてのチェックインになる際には注意が必要です。
