Incredible staff. The whole place felt very cozy and homey thanks to them. Even though technically only breakfast is included, whenever they cooked something, they offered it to guests (and it was delicious - thanks for the pasta Matteo! 🙌) Had a very social atmosphere, I met great people there. The bed was pretty comfortable. Everywhere, including the showers and toilets, were always clean. It was in a very central location. Close to the metro line, with street food right outside. There were plenty of cosmetic shops, hair salons and restaurants around. (Despite being central, the room was very quiet - no noise from outside.)

It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
