Worst accommodation I have never met in my life

Posted Oct. 9, 2017 on Expedia
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Nothing
Location: Hard to find
1. Lots of mosquito are dead on the wall with blood disgusting! 2. Beds are not beds. Like stones not comfortable 3. Bathroom, washing basin is terrible. Dirty water drop straight to floor also yakky smell is coming up. 4. If fire is up, no exit. Everybody will be dead. Window is blocked by steel bar and just one access to downstairs. So dangerous. 5. Environment beside building is no good as well. Messy spoooky

Close to subway station and convenience store. Some eateries nearby. Johnny is helpful. There is laundry service available and that is great.

Okay

The drain was very strange - everything from the sink drained in the opposite direction across the floor, so you basically had to step in it to get around the bathroom. The pillows had stains all over it, which was a bit unpleasant. Location was very convenient as it is close to the war memorial as well as the subway. Check in and out was a breeze.

Lean and Comfortable Great staff

Posted Jun. 2, 2017 on Hotels
I have lived in Korea for two years and usually when in the Itaewan area I stay here.But, if you want good wifi or TV with good English channels and a good shower, you might want to look elsewhere. Its all personal preference. One thing that does stand out here is the staff. ALWAYS friendly and helpful. There is a girl there, I think her name was Sandra, who went way out of her way to help me locate a place I wanted to see. Not too many would have done that. Another girl there, from Taiwan, who also speaks great English along with Sandra, is very friendly and helpful. So, it really is what you what at the time. I do stay elsewhere when I plan on relaxing and using the wifi a lot. Its very clean and quiet and I'm sure you will like it there even with the pitfalls.

very nice staff and good location

Posted Apr. 17, 2017 on Hotels
It was such a very nice vacation spent in this hostel. The following staff, johnny, hanna and angela were very friendly and accommodating. The place is equipped with microwave, refrigerator, stove, rice cooker - simply anything you can see in the kitchen, they have it and you can use it. The room is very clean. The place is very convenient and close to subway. It was AWESOME...We will come back to this place and I will recommend it to my fellow airline employees.

Great little budget spot

Posted Apr. 7, 2017 on Hotels
Stephanie and Mike were great. The place is a little older but fairly clean. There is a bit of mold here and there. But all in all it was very suitable. The single room was perfectly proportioned and had everything that I needed, though I think some hooks in the entrance of the room and a little stool would be nice additions. The 10 minute walk to Itaewon was refreshing and there is a direct bus if you are feeling a little lazy. Close to the subway with easy access to everywhere.

Nice host

Posted Mar. 23, 2017 on Expedia
Pros: Location
Cons: Wifi to my room not strong enough. I have to go to lobby to use the wifi.
Location: It's near to Samgakji station. Easy to travel anywhere.
Near to train station, very convenience to travel anywhere. I got free room upgraded by the host. They are friendly and very helpful. Good place with reasonable price.
