Stayed here for 10 days in the family room. It was spotlessly clean, well located, right next to the stream, within walking distance of Insadong and generally a wonderful stay. A quiet haven in a beautiful city.

The shared bathroom was big and modern. I loved the fact that the beds had curtains for some privacy. It was modern and fresh and I'd highly recommend it for other travellers looking for a good place to stay at

Close to Cheonggyecheon Stream which is a very peaceful place in the bustling city. Many food options outside and close to transport. Property was clean and the fresh towels and bottled water were also very good. Staff are responsive to any enquires when you email them. Very happy with my stay.

It was a nice hostel and the room has great aircon, mine had a nice view and it’s pretty close to the river. The only draw back is they’re mostly staff-less so you have to do your own check in and email them your passport. They also don’t have secure luggage storage. You just leave it behind an unmanned desk which everyone has access to. There’s also stairs of you’re staying up on the 12th floor with no lift option.

Vishal

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
Property was in a great location, very close to jong bak station. It was also fairly close to the major tourist attractions of seoul. Unfortunately, i wasnt a fan of the self check in process. You need to enter sets of codes to get into the building, then the floor then the room. This meant having to remember the codes or pull them out everytime. Because of the format of the stay, i actually didn't meant any hotel staff besides the cleaner therefore that whole hospitality feeling went missing for me over here. I also stayed solo here and got a private room(single room.) I found it difficult to speak to other travellers, the social room could have been better, staggering across 2 floors i don't think works well, more social things at the stay would have been nicer. Looking back, i would've tried to find a more socialable hostel instead with actual people.

Disliked: Amenities
Das Zimmer ist klein und leider sehr hellhörig. Man hört sogar, wenn im Nebenzimmer der Toilettensitz heruntergeklappt wird. Das Bett ist sehr hart. In meinem Zimmer war ein Mini-Fenster unter der Decke, dass sich leider nicht verdunkeln ließ. Auch außerhalb des Hotels ist es oft sehr laut. Hierfür fand ich den Preis pro Nacht zu hoch.

快適でした

8人部屋に泊まりました。 部屋にシャワー室は2つ、トイレが1つ、洗面台が2つありました。清潔感がありとても良かったです。シャワーのタイミングが重ならないように私は夕方早めの時間にシャワーしていました。シャワーはずっと出しっぱなしだと冷たくなってしまったので、こまめに止めていました。トイレはホステル入り口の外にもビルのトイレがありましたので、誰かが使用中はそちらに行ったりしました。 共用スペースには電子レンジ、トースター、お湯も出るウォーターサーバー、自由に飲めるお茶などありました。お湯の出し方の説明を見ても分からなかったのでメールで問い合わせたらすぐに見にきてくれました。 8人部屋だと物音など気にされる人には向かないと思いますが、私は快適に過ごすことができました。 明洞や安国までは歩いて行けました。 駅は1号線にも2号線にも近かったです。バス停も近くにあったので助かりました。

Pied à terre

Voyageur solo, en chambre individuelle. La taille était largement suffisante, tout était bien agencé. L'emplacement très bien pour découvrir la ville. Facilement accessible depuis la gare et l'aéroport. Proche à pieds des lieux à voir, proche egalement des métros et bus. Chambre très propre, lit un peu dur. Quartier vivant, facile a vivre.
