The staff was excellent! They stayed an hour late for us to check in when we didn’t know what time check in ended. And the room was very clean and well decorated! We felt right at home. We will definitely be coming here again! (And will be there before check in ends! Sorry!)

Very friendly atmosphere. Nice kitchen with drinks available. I was originally booked into the larger mixed dorm but got upgraded to the 6-bed female dorm when I arrived, which was really good for me as a young solo female traveller. Really convenient, central location. Overall, a comfortable and easy stay!

I recommend this place for affordability and location. Much cheaper than a hotel, and the double bed-room was comfortable. Some of the finishes were a little worn, but for a hostel, I can't complain. I recommend for solo travelers.

The only good thing about this hostel is the location as it is a street away from the metro station. Aside from that, this is the filthiest hostel I have ever stayed in. I place looks like a hoarders live in the “kitchen area.” The refrigerator hasn’t been cleaned in over a year, food is shoved into every nook, extension cords are a bliss and the floor hasn’t not been mopped since installed.
When can be found, the staff is not at all helpful at providing simple information that they should know.
The rooms are less than halfway decent in comfort but look as though the walls will soon crumble from lack of construction and patching.
There was a girl who, for two nights slept in the kitchen and did not move, as to be passed out from a night of hard drinking. Another girl who must be living there would dry her hair at the dining tables and brush her teeth in the kitchen sink rather than use the bathroom in her assigned room.
Fortunately I wasn’t expecting much and slept there only for three hours and used the place as a luggage storage and location to charge my phone. I do not recommend this place to anyone no mater the price.

It is a pretty cool hostel. I had a private room. It was the perfect size for one. Hostel is super close to subway exit. During my time there, there was 2 different front desk guys. They were both friendly, respectful, & helpful.

The people and staff here open my eyes to Korea. I had no idea coming here and thinking I would sleep in all day. The LGBT friendly, Open minded, Caring Staff took great care of me and made a warm and very fun atmosphere! Naji was the best! look for her when you come, she is the cool american girl! The wi-fi also very good and fast!

This was my first time staying at a hostel. I had to stay here in a pinch because all other hotels were full during Seoul Fashion Week. This is a cheap, cheap no frills place. The building and the furnishings inside are kind of old and rundown but the staff were friendly. The bed was clean and comfortable and the room was well heated at night. Be prepared to share a bathroom. I got what I paid for. Not terrible but not great.

Greeting was good, however a cash key deposit was required in addition, which would be helpful to know.
Directed to 2nd floor, the whole floor absolutely stank like cigarette smoke. I asked for another room, no was the answer. He said he would find the source and fix the problem as this was no smoking accommodation.
Following night awoken by foul stench of cigarette smoke coming into my room at 3am. Some moron was smoking in the room next to me, who knew it was a no smoking room. I packed my luggage and contemplated leaving or sleeping in dining room foyer. However another manager was on duty and upgraded me instantly to another room thankfully.
The kitchen cupboards had insects running around inside, people leaving dishes with food half eaten, a discernable lack of utensils/bowls. Very difficult.
Overall, I couldn't wait to get out of there.

There's a smell in the bathroom I can best describe as faint sulfur, fruit flies everywhere even though temperature hovered around 0 degrees. Kitchen was very dirty. Good thing is there's food order delivery that the staff helped me with and there's almost always someone at the front desk. Very close to train station so very convenient.

Short distance from Cheongu station of Seoul Metro. Although some reviewers said it's tough to find, one just need to know it's behind Tous Les Jours and everything will be easy. Convenience store & a mini-market nearby, food & grocery shopping is a breeze. I once walked back from Doota, took about 15 mins. For this trip, I stayed at the 14-bedded dormitory, and it occupies the whole basement. Spacious enough but lack individual reading light for each bed. The hostel was filled with a friendly atmosphere overall.

Lone traveler stayed from the 9th to the 20th.
Staffs and other customers are all equally friendly. Staffs also conduct trips occasionally for travellers who does not know where to go. Feels more homely to say its just a hostel is underrated.
Thanks to Tommy, Leo and all the other staffs. I will visit the place again definitely.
