Stayed here for around a week, since I extended my first booking. The hostel is located near Myeongdong station. It's a 5-10 minute walk to the shopping streets of Myeongdong. There are also nearby bus stations, and the airport bus station is near it as well. The staff at the reception were able to answer my questions and they explained everything when I arrived. You can leave your luggage when you arrive before check-in time. You can also leave your luggage when you check-out, as long as you retrieve them by 10PM. The hostel also allows you to leave your luggage for a few days with a fee. Laundry is also available for a small fee. Lockers are provided for each person, which can fit large luggages. Toiletries (body wash and shampoo), towels, and tissues are also provided. A simple breakfast is also served (bread, jam, kaya, peanut butter, butter, 2 kinds of cereals, juice, milk, and coffee). You can use the refrigerator and the microwaves as well. A water dispenser is also available. Beds are comfortable and the temperature in the room is just right.
The toilets and showers for the dorms are located outside the rooms. The hostel is also located in the "hilly" side of Myeongdong, so if you're bringing heavy luggages, please take note of this, as roads can be a bit slippery when it rains/snows. The property also does not have an elevator.

Near everthing. Few halal restaurants, convenience store nearby and subway just down the road. Love the rooftop with Namsan Tower view. Our room was spacious can fit 4 luggage and still have space for praying. No elevator but thereâs one specially for our luggage thatâs only for the staff. So donât worry about bringing your luggage up the stairs. We also came early at 10am and they had space near the entrance where we can leave our luggage. Staff were also very friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

The hotel is in a VERY good location. The people are the best ě 미ě°ě¨ always being kind and asking about your day â¤ď¸. Everyone makes you feel welcome, the guys are amazing and very helpful all the time.
As suggestion, just add some protein in the breakfast, maybe cheese or eggs. Improve the way that the laundry is delivered hehe. Maybe apply some linen change routine If the guest stay for over 5 days. It is a suggestion not criticism. đ

Location was superb, 10 minutes away from Myeongdong subway station and airport bus station. The staff are also nice, particularly Marco (sorry if I did not spell that right), he was always smiling and he helped me with my luggage. A very commendable employee, indeed! I was assigned a top bunk bed, it was comfortable and clean. I also like that the dorm room is spacious. There is an individual locker, slippers and towels provided. The free breakfast is a bonus! I will definitely come back again.
The bathroom is strangely located, as it was across the common area/lobby. Just manage your expectations with it, because the bathrooms seem old and there is sewer, which may be an issue for some people.

Location-wise, it's perfect. Situated near a train station, a convenient stores, cafes, and most importantly, halal restaurants. Additionally, it's close to MyeongDong shopping area, making it incredibly convenient. During my 10-day stay, I had a wonderful experience at this hotel and highly recommend it. The room was excellent - quiet, cozy, and clean. The staff can be easy to talk to and the facilities were also great, including a rooftop overlooking the Namsan Tower, which was a definite highlight for me. The common kitchen area is a real highlight for me too. Despite the menu being the same every day, I genuinely enjoy it because it provides everything I need for a satisfying breakfast. The basics are always there - coffee, bread, toaster, microwave, spreads, cornflakes, milk, and juice. While the menu might lack variety, its consistency and provision of essential items make it a dependable and convenient option. Plus, knowing that these staples will be available saves me time and effort in the mornings, allowing me to start my day on a positive note. Additionally, I also love coming to the kitchen at night after a long day outside. It's quiet and very homey! There's something comforting about the familiar setting and the sense of peace it brings. Whether it's reheating leftovers or just making a cup of tea, the kitchen becomes a sanctuary where I can unwind and relax. Overall, despite its simplicity, the common kitchen area offers a reliable and enjoyable breakfast experience, as well as a cozy retreat after a busy day.
While I understand the necessity of prompt check-out procedures, I'm disappointed by the aggressive behavior exhibited by some staff members. I recognize the importance of adhering to cleaning schedules, but there's no justification for rudeness or scolding guests. A more respectful approach would greatly enhance the overall guest experience.

The location was perfect since it gave me access to art galleries, street food, cinemas, malls, the subway, stores, etc. The staff were absolutely helpful and friendly. I loved that there was basic breakfast served every morning. The beds are big enough and had sockets accommodating international types of plugs. The lobby was brightly lit. I love that you could refill your water bottle with either cold or hot water any time of the day. I felt safe knowing that my locker, our room door and the main entrance were all password-encrypted for only guests to access. I also appreciated the fact that they already had shampoo, conditioner, bodywash and hair dryers for all guests to use. They offer laundry service for only 10,000 KRW per standard basket size. They said when you give your laundry before 11 AM, you'd get the clean ones back by evening. Buuut they finished doing my laundry in two hours or so! I love how efficient they are. The staff are also easy to talk to whether you be asking for help or just want a quick friendly chat.
Despite the overflow of clean towels to use, they were so small. They were more of face towels instead of bath towels that you could wrap around your whole body. Sometimes, there is this sweaty smell coming when you get inside a bathroom stall. One time, I think a staff member was getting impatient with me asking for specific directions and opinions on how to get to a number of destinations that he just told me to install the Naver map app. I already had that app on my phone but sometimes, directions are confusing for me when I read them off the app so I prefer asking local staff who may know shortcuts or hacks, etc.

Satisfied with the bed, breakfast, locker and all the facilities provided. Bed, pillow and blanket super comfy.
You need to passby the lobby in order to go to the washroom. A bit uncomfortable for ladies especially during the breakfast time when all the other men guests having breakfast at the lobby area

Although it's a sharing room, but still give you a privacy as each bed has the curtain. The living room is cozy and it is absolutely close to Myeongdong and Subway. Definitely love it! I'll choose this place again for my next visit in Seoul
