Good location, close to subway line 4 and Myeongdong shopping area. Safe for solo travellers. Simple breakfast. Stuffy room. The AC remote was taken away and cannot be used. Bathroom facilities were mouldy and dusty and needs repair. Staff often cleans common area. Staff generally nice Online photos should be updated. Quiet time is between midnight and 7am. Not good if you sleep earlier as majority of other guests will come back around 11pm. I was right by the door and across the bathroom door and can hear everything. Ask for

Very bad experience during the recent stay Room filled with guests from China who talked so loudly at night and made inconsiderate request of switching OFF the air-conditioning in a room of EIGHT with NO WINDOWS, which means NIL ventilation, by reason of having flu I felt very sick of the people occupying the room who doesn't really know what is being considerate Will probably not choosing this to stay unless I have no option as I do not want to meet such users again

２度目の利用です。ひとりで３泊しました。 ミョンドン駅から近く、ゲストハウスの中ではとても綺麗で利用しやすいゲストハウスだと思います。 今回、飛行機の到着が遅れてチェックインが２４時を過ぎてしまったのですが、セルフチェックインをさせていただき、部屋の暗証番号など丁寧に書いてある紙も準備してくださり、何の不安もなく利用できました。 ひとりの時はまた利用したいと思います。

明洞駅付近でリーズナブルな宿を探していて、見つけました。 ゲストハウス、ユースホステル、バックパッカーズハウス等、色々と検索してみて、ここが1番オシャレで綺麗そうだったので選びました。 しかし写真だけでは分からないもので、実際に行ってみると、オシャレさも綺麗さもそれほどではありませんでしたヽ(￣д￣;)ノ ですが、オシャレでなくてもそれほど綺麗でなくても、必要な設備は全て揃っており、不便はないです。 また、寝室は少し暗めの照明になっており、とても落ち着き、良く眠れる空間でした。 軽食ですが、朝はトーストやオールブラン等が簡単に用意されています。 女性専用とは知らずに予約しましたが、施設内で男性は1人もいませんでした。 明洞へ行く際は、また泊まると思います！

私は足が悪いので、リクエストとして『下の段のベッドを希望』していたのですが…ホテルに到着すると『上の段』のベッドでした。 一人で宿泊している若い子が下の段を利用していました。 中国人の数名が3階の入り口にスーツケースや荷物を広げていました。私が通ろうとしても、スペースを空けようともしません。 中国人の宿泊客のマナーが気になります。 もう少し、他の宿泊客が快適に過ごせるように配慮してほしいです。 中国人の宿泊客は、泊めないで欲しいくらいです。 スタッフの男の子は、とても親切でした。 また、泊まりたいと思います。

Great hostel!

The beds were really comfortable and had a blind for privacy. The bathrooms and showers and were clean and there were a lot so I never had an issue with needing to wait to use one. There were blowdryers everywhere for me to use along with cotton pads and swabs. The location was super convenient since it was right across from the myeongdong shopping area. The staff were friendly and great people to converse with. Totally reccomend.

リーピーターになりました‼︎‼︎

前回利用してみて駅近、快適だったので今回もここに。ミョンドン駅4番出口からでてすぐです。ただ夜中に女の子1人だと明かりが少なくなるので、少し気をつけた方がいいかもしれません。ホテルは2階.3階ですが、エレベーターはないため自力で荷物を持って上がらなければなりませんが、帰りは心優しい受付の男の子が持って降りてくれました！部屋は8人部屋でしたが、騒音が気になることはなく、ただ空調が寒いなと感じましたが、羽毛布団がかなり暖かくて気持ちよく入眠することができました。受付の男の子は片言の日本語を一生懸命話してくれるので、韓国語がわからなくても安心できます。キャリーケースをベットの下の鍵付きのところに収納することもできるので、荷物も安心して置いておくこともできますが、ほとんどの方はキャリーケースをベッドの横に置いている感じでした。ミョンドン駅から近いので、ミョンドンで買い物をして荷物を置きに帰ることもでき、コストも安いので、次回もまたここに泊まろうと思います！あと受付の男の子は前回私が泊まったことを覚えていてくれて、とても嬉しかったです‼︎‼︎ 本当にありがとうございました‼︎‼︎

女の子１人でも大丈夫

明洞駅4番出口からでてすぐです！私が泊まったのは４人で一部屋のところでしたが、泊まるだけなら安く泊まれるしオススメです。二段ベッドの上だったので、乗り降りには気を使いましたが、ベッドの中は広さもあり快適でした。シャワー室は元々3つあるところに加え、トイレを2つ改造しシャワー室に変えてありました。元々あったシャワー室は扉がなくオープンな感じで、トイレを改造して造られたシャワーは扉もあり安心してシャワーができました。ただ水の出し方、温度の調節が今までにみたことのないタイプで数分格闘しました。結局自分では出せなかったので、近くにいた方にだしてもらいましたが、どうやってでたかよくわかりませんでした。何か表示があるとわかりやすいのになと思いました。シャワーは夜12時までと部屋に書いてあったので、夜遅くに帰ってくる方は注意してください。あとドライヤーも使えなくなります。 従業員の方は帰りスーツケースを階段下まで運んでくださり、とても親切でした。 できるだけ宿泊費は抑えた方にはぜひオススメです！

Bad customer service experience from hotels.com

I booked 3 nights with this hostel but unable to check in. Before i make the reservation, i saw the page from hotels.com shows that the room only for women, so i called directly to the hostel and ask. The staff told me that the hostel is open for everyone not only for women, so i booked. After that i went to check in, i was told by the staff that the hostel is strictly only for women. Since i unable to check in to the property, i asked for my refund, the staff told me that the money is goes to hotels.com not to them yet so they unable to refund me. Next, i call hotels.com customer service directly but the staff said they unable to accommodate because hotels.com had reserved for me for the hostel stay instead of selling it to others, and then i ask if they can refund me for another 2 nights since i booked 3 nights in total and they will have time to sell to other customer. The staff rejected directly and ask if i can find someone else to stay in that hostel. What kind of stupid question? I am on my vacation and i need to find a lady to stay in the hostel? So i ask the staff is it reasonable that i cannot check in to stay in the hostel yet i cannot have any refund? I was so upset and i will never use hotels.com again in the future.

ドミトリータイプのゲストハウスの中ではとても綺麗なゲストハウスです！

友達と旅行でしたが、宿泊日数が違ったので、ひとりでこちらに宿泊しました。 もともと３泊で予約していましたが、２泊延泊することになり、フロントに相談したら、同じ部屋で宿泊できるようすぐに対応してくださいました。 ２段ベットの４人部屋でしたが、カーテンもちゃんとあり、皆さんマナーを守っていらっしゃるので全く気になりませんでした。 シャワールームもシャワー６台が並んでいる共同タイプですが、仕切りもあり、清潔で使いやすかったです。混雑して使えないこともありませんでした。お湯もきちんと出ます。トイレは個室で、シャワーとは別です。 アメニティはありませんが、タオルは自分で好きなときに交換でき、ドライヤーも完備しています。共同の鏡台がすごく大きくて、朝の準備もパパっとできました。 部屋のごみ箱も毎日きちんと片付けられていました。 個人それぞれに、鍵のついた大きめの収納棚が割り振られていますので、貴重品も置けます。 朝食はシリアル、トースト、コーヒー、牛乳が食べ放題です。食器は自分で洗います。 wi-fiも不具合なく使用できました。 そもそもドミトリーが嫌いな方は無理だと思いますが、それさえＯＫであれば、かなり居心地良いゲストハウスだと思います。次の旅行でも是非宿泊したいと思います。
