Best choice for guesthouse stay in Itaewon Seoul
Stayed here a few times in the distant past. Each time including current stay, it seems this hostel draws a certain group of like-minded guest who are cordial, respectful and friendly. This is a great meeting place to stay at in Itaewon/Seoul to forge a truly enjoyable experience while in Korea. The hosts are renown and greatly admired from a wide array of international guests who stay here.

The guesthouse itself served its purpose for my overnight stay in the area. The bed was clean, and the staff was helpful and informative. The bathroom in my dorm was interesting in that if the sink ran too long, the floor flooded. Also, our dorm room door stayed unlocked the entire night. It wasn't a problem, but it defeated the purpose of giving us room keys.

I've been to many hostels all over the world and this is one of the best ones I have stayed at. You are provided with a towel and a lock for your locker. They have "breakfast" included. It is mostly cereal, toast, juice and milk. I came during December and the room was warm. It is in a convenient location, close to a lot of shopping and food and the subway.

This is a so so hostel. The bathrooms are a little funky where they are both toilet stalls and showers. I think the bunkrooms could be better ventilated, and for some reason the hallways smelled like poo (not sure if this is typically the case). The location is great though and very close to a metro station. Also I thought the staff was very kind and accommodating.

I was a guest here nearly four years ago. Thankfully, nothing has changed: great staff, a safe and welcoming atmosphere, comfortable beds and linen, breakfast, coffee and juice. All for a fair price. This is how a guesthouse is supposed to be. Thank you, guys!

I, like a couple other folks, had a longer than usual stay. However, it was two weeks well spent. The staff always do a good job showing interest in the guests and their needs. In addition, there is plenty of food for the free breakfast (eggs toast. jam cereal, butter coffee) , and they are quite flexible when it comes to potential timing concerns. However, I do have one request...and that is make sure guests are not smoking in the room and try to convince the smokers that when they stand RIGHT BY THE OPEN DOOR and engge in their habit, the smell fills the entire place. I don't wish to be rude but non-smokers don't need have to endure that . That is it...I loved my stay and am grateful there was room.

I stayed there three times the past few months and each time was a nice experience. The rooms were clean, along with the bathrooms/showers. The guest lobby is very useful and pragmatic, if you like to stay in and cook four yourself. The free breakfast in the morning in plentiful, with eggs, toast (with plenty of butter and jam), cereal and coffee. There plenty of books to read, informative literature to guide your through Seoul and the staff are all ready to help and answer questions in a friendly manner.

The best part about the hostel is definitely the staff! They were very helpful in answering questions I had about planning my trip, and changed me to a different room as well to make me feel more comfortable. The showers could have been cleaner, but functioned well enough. It was great to have the laundry facilities right there and for a very reasonable price. It needs to be noted that the hostel has a lot of steps and stairs though, which could be a problem for some. Other than that, it is in a good location, with buses and the metro very close by. Lots of food places around and fairly easy access to airports and bus stations. The bed was very comfy and the sheets clean and the towel provided. The rooms had lockers too so that was great. I had a good time here :)

Better Hostel Than Expected
Was rather surprised by some of the stuff included in the room. Free shampoo, soap, a heated floor, free laundry facilities, etc. Perhaps I just haven't been to enough, but I didn't know there were hostels which included such things. The staff seemed close and friendly too, which was nice. That it was so close to a train station and street covered in restaurants is also a plus. Can't say I'm too fond of all the stairs though...
