Kimchee Sinchon Guesthouse - Hostel

the staff is nice and friendly, but somehow the room is smells bad and not clean as I experience another kimchee downtown guesthouse, the room has no key lock for the locker and also the bed room, and somehow I found out there's a man come into my room in the middle of the night kinda scary, and also the heater is not working properly so I do freezing at night

Pillow, blanket and bed smell awful and look dirty almost everywhere. Other guests often make some noise at the hallway in the midnight. They don't mind about manner. Maybe this place is not right for me.

when I'm arrived at 17:30 in the hostel I was waiting to someone come to cheek ine about 45min b'coz nobody is there then the oil it's so dirty room bed it's dirty cover bed all so dirty and the smell it's so bad actually they have no any housekeeper to clean room was have some backpacker come to clean in the morning when we are sleeping and so noisy then when I ask them why did you do like this they just laugh and say nothing anyway I never see before in my traveling memories any bad hostel like kimchee hostel it was is terrible,Hotel reception it's rude and in the hotel you can't charge your mobile or your computer b'coz they say you have to buy Adaptor and so many bad think I will never back in this hostel again and will tell to my friends all so don't go...

Valued for money. Near subway + big bus station and near night street (Hongdae). Many restaurants are near by. Don't be scare to starve 😂...

6 tháng 12 2019 · Du lịch bụi Valued for money. Near subway + big bus station and near night street (Hongdae). Many restaurants are near by. Don't be scare to starve 😂.... When I came, the man at night shift upgraded room without fee for me. Really thankful.... I will come back if I have chance to visit

Really suitable for a budget traveler like me. The facilities are okay but there isn't any elevator. Solo girls are safe when staying here, close to bus stops and subways, best location!

It's good hotel, cheap and comfortable Hotel staffs very cooperative Nearby hotel, easy find such kind food and drink open 24 hours all the time it's great

Position is quite good not really far from hongik university station exit 4, staffs are nice, this is the second time I stay here and I enjoyed it.

The only inconvenience here was staying in 4th floor while the bath room for women was in 3rd and 5th floor. Time for checking in is a little bit late but we could leave our stuff there until check-in time. Easy to check in and out, friendly receptionist 😊 The dorm is near by Hongdae, just need to walk about 15 mins and we could arrive there. Many store and small restaurant around this area, it's convenient to eat, play, shopping all day long.🤞

The place is rather difficult to find, exit 6 or 5 hongik st. Crossing and the place turns out behind the main road, check-in smoothly (6k won deposit for keys and towels) can go back when checking out, Dorm beds no lift suitable for backpackers and blankets less clean so my feet like being bitten by insects at bedtime .

I just don't like the vibe. The staff is nice but not being helpful. They don't explain the facilities well. I even found they have shared space on the basement on day 3. They were also busy joking and flirting with another guest or maybe their friends while I was waiting to check in -_- The bathrooms only 2 in my floor so I have to wait quite long to use it

The hotel is near Hongik univ exit 7, walking for about 5-7 minutes. The room smells a little bit (but it smells like oil) but I just rented it to sleep, the rest went all day so it was temporarily accepted. the welding party is very well aware, furniture is not to worry about losing, cctv everywhere, but it is still best to bring valuable items with you. Enthusiastic staff, now check in check out a bit strange @@

The place is comfortable clean too. The room is clean too. Very strategic location. Clean bathroom. Anyway, really recommended. Thanks Kimchee.

When I entered the hostel, I got shocked how dirty the hallway to reception is. The luggage room is not any better. The common area looks so dirty also. The room and bathroom is clean. But what really throw me off is the service. One of their staff are really rude, I believe the name is Martin, he's Korean. When you ask a question he looks so pissed off. He won't even make you feel welcome. But worse is he looks so mad even when you ask for necessary questions regarding your room and the hostel. Lol If you only care about the place to sleep and the bathroom you can stay here. But if you care about customer service, Kimchee Sinchon failed so bad in this. Don't stay here if you want to have good vibes stay in Seoul.

Looks good for people who do not matter much. Chill Near the train station

Worth the price, not far from the train station. If like to meet people from many countries Kimchi is right for you.

I was allowed to check in early (on top of last-minute booking). The location was relatively easy to find and near a bus stop (5 mins) and subway/metro (20-min walk). Clean and you have access to free hot water and coffee/tea pretty much anytime. My only nitpick was I hope the common bathroom downstairs has bigger area to put your stuff on and has better privacy on the shower area in case you’re not alone. Overall, good value for the price.

The location is really goood! close to the station an the bus stop so you can go anywhere with no worries~

Location is not good, the atmosphere is awkward. Sucking reception Ask anything, point to read, but the sign makes the page ready plus all the time. I didn't even think about seeing the room. Change hotels to other locations.

I stayed here in 2014 & 2015. This is my 3rd stay. The bathrooms were renovated. The basement remains a happening place. However the rooms are showing its age. The ventilation in room needs improvement in the summer. Suggest the guesthouse could at least provide 1 table fan in each dormitory. No hairdryer in the male toilets is a discrimination.
