Everything is just nice with this price, simple and clean, friendly staff,
near to bus station and subway station, can directly reach by bus from airport, just a minute walk to get food, short distance to some tourists spots. Will revisit if come to Daegu again.
The establishment is run under the ethos of promoting empathy especially for North Korean refugees.
It is very cheap yet everything is so clean and generally available, including washing machines, computers, study rooms, etc. They provide you with clean linen but you have to make your own bed with it.
They even give you complimentary coffee at the lobby. Breakfast is also free and consists of toast, jam, coffee and boiled eggs.
Only problem with the place is there is no hot water!
Empathy is one of the best places I have stayed. The staff are friendly, even on occasion inviting me to participate in the hotel BBQ and other events. The hostel is very close major shopping and eating areas and not far from anything in particular in Daegu. Staff are helpful always and there are many staff so someone is always around. Rooms are cleaned daily too
Great location, walking distance to Dongsung-ro(shopping & cuisine street) and subway station. I wouldn't say the room was very cozy, but it had everything an accommodation should have. The room charge is super cheap and overall I had a pleasant stay.
