😊: Without having a lot of experience with hostels in Seoul, his felt like you got more or less what you paid for. It was relatively inexpensive, for a single room, the area felt quite safe, it was easy to do self checkout and check-in, there is a kitchen with a microwave, fridge and sink you can use, and the contact with staff was via message in the booking app, and very friendly. The air conditioning was life saving!.
😢: It was inexpensive, and you really noticed that in some areas. Everything was very damp, which is of course to be expected in Seoul in summer, but it did feel like it was a bit of a problem in this building in particular. There was mold in the bathroom, and a musty smell in the room and in the common areas. That didn't really bother me for a short stay, but might be important for people to know. The bed linen, while clean, was polyester, which might not bother some, but it makes it quite sweaty with 35 ° C outside, just as a warning. None of these are reasons not to ever go here, though, IMO.
