Efficient and comfortable
Wonderful little place in middle of Gangnam. Neat and tidy room. Small but everything you need is there. Not facing street so look for sign. Must use elevator and limited check in time but they have a self check in computer set up. Quiet but still in center of Gangnam.

Self explanatory like an iPhone
Just roll with the digital era and things work themselves out . Comfortable enough . One gripe : the street noise shouldn't have got though the well insulated windows the way it did . Weird .

Great except for that light
The hostel was nice but there was a motion sensor light that went off every time my friend went to the bathroom at night and it was really annoying.

The location was very good. A convenient store really close by. Around that area late at night, taxis were very hard to catch. The location of the hostel was very convenient to hang out of just to wait till the rush was over.

Rude and unaccomodating staff
It's super hard to get in touch with a front desk person. There isn't a front desk; just a room designated for staff. Even simple requests lowers denied... maybe because of language...?
