The flexibility of the place. The host is very friendly to us. I like it for the price also, it suit a budget plan and a place to crash at night.

I think the light source can be better for the place. It's a bit dark in the room since there is no window. Add more section light and warm tone light can raise the value of comfort sense

The hostel is located approx 05mins away from Gongdeok metro station, which connects non-stop to ICN Airport, as well as to other lines comprising the Seoul metro network. Lots of korean restaurants around the place. Free laundry service as well as lots of towels placed outside the room. The owner is very kind. Would love to stay there again! :)

Near the metro. Being able to have a room to myself. The amenities available to guests regardless of whether I used them or not.

lack of heating beyond the bed warmer. Showering wasn't the most pleasant but acceptable considering the cost

Great location, sometimes the shower had hot water, fridge in the room and there's laundry services

The whole place needs a good clean, the bed was so so hard, the shower was freezing most of the time, no communication or people about checking in when we got there and the hostel door is just wide open all the time with the keys for check in hanging there. We saw one person working once over our 5 day stay and we had run out of toilet roll. No towels provided except face towels that weren't changed in the 5 days. Very dark and dingy, the main light makes it feel like a prison. Has great potential but just misses the mark
