    I still love Seoul and will definitely come back

    Pros: This hostel is ideal for those traveling within a budget. It also has nice location which is accessible to restaurants, market and bus station/ subway.
    Cons: Weve already stayed here way back 2020 and the hostel then was really clean and maintained but 4 years after it became messy and the staff arent always available

    1/10

    Very Poor

    Worst experience during our entire world trip

    Pros: Nothing! This hostel is literally the worst we have ever been.
    Cons: The hostel is super run down. It is very dirty and has a very bad smell. The mattresses are old and saggy. The bed linen were full off sweat strains and other indefinable strains. We asked for new ones and the new ones they gave us were even worse and full with hair. The floor was full with hair, dusk and dirt. I dont want to describe how much dirt there was under the bed - just look at the pictures I uploaded. This rooms wasnt cleaned for a while! The bathroom was the worst. We didnt even take a shower here as there was mold everywhere and it had a very bad smell. Moreover everything was very dirty. The staff also seemed to be very unmotivated and not really friendly or helpful. Overall this was unfortunately the worst experience we had during our 10 months world trip. Even if this place is cheap, its still to expensive for what you get. The location is also not very good.

    Cons: I arrived at the hostel, my card to enter the room was not there as indicated in the online check in email. After two hours an attendant appeared and put me in another room for a night, the next day they changed the room. The day before I left, I was bothered several times by two attendants, saying that I hadn't paid for my accommodation, despite showing it on the booking and bank apps. Until 11pm they kept knocking on my room. And I was questioned several times.
