- Christian (9/5): -
- Luisa Hannelore (10/5): good place to stay! it’s next to a “central asia” area with Uzbekistan food. - It’s clean and quiet it is a bit small but okay for one person
- Zuzanna (10/5): I can really recommend, didn’t feel like hostel - It was very clean, stuff was very nice Bathroom, really uncomfortable to shower
- Kiara (10/5): -
- MJ (9/5): Good place to stay in Dongdaemun area - 1. The location was great as it was very near to Line 5 subway station, as well as Line 4 and Line 2 stations, and other bus stops. A lot of restaurants and convenience stores around too.
2. The double room was comfortable with good lighting, ventilation even without outside window, fast internet, toiletries, slippers, mirror, table, and small fridge.
3. The hostel had pantry with water dispenser.
4. The landlord was also nice and could speak English, but he is very strict with the noise. The rooms were totally not soundproof so it was difficult to talk or converse inside the room without disturbing other people with noise. Nonetheless, it was manageable.
- HUU PHUOC THANH (9/5): -
- Khalid (10/5): Great price-value hostel i recommend i would definitely come back - Good location next to the subway, and a lot of amenities such as the self laundry, the staff was really friendly and helpful and transparent.
They give out fresh towel and earbuds to avoid hearing the noise. The soundproofing is not good
- Simon (10/5): - Very nice and helpful guy at the desk. Very good location 80 metres from subway. Nothing really!
- Arnaud (9/5): -
- Assel (10/5): -
- Michela (9/5): Excellent place to stay in Seul - Really nice place to stay when you visit Seul. He hostel is really clean , confortable bed, quite atmosphere o sleep really important after you have been walking whole day.
- Meryem Büşra (10/5): - Location is great. So close to 3 different metro lines. Staff is so welcoming and helpful. We stayed 15 nights and it was comfortable. .
- 珮函 (10/5): CP值非常高,位置很好走路1分鐘有機場巴士,附近也有很多便利商店,走路20分鐘左右可以到東大門 - 位置
- Laura (8/5): -
- Cenelia del Rosio (10/5): - La limpieza y la atención del personal Todo me gustó
- FANG CHING (10/5): 舒適、乾淨、價格合理 - 這次入住雙人房,房間空間不大不過一個人住剛剛好。大行李箱可以攤平,只是走道不大行李箱完全攤平會稍微擋到走路空間。
老闆很和善,會幫忙把行李提到房間,每次遇到也都會打招呼問好。
房間很乾淨,熱水水壓足夠也快速,使用上很方便!(吹風機也都有)
房間都有小冰箱,每個樓層都有提供快煮壺可以自己拿到房間使用。1樓公用廚房也有大冰箱、冷熱飲水機、微波爐(有使用時間限制)、洗衣機(要付費)還有提供一些免洗餐具。
離捷運站走路大概5分鐘路程,離東大門Dun Dun、Olive young也算近,附近CU、GS25、7-Eleven都有也很方便。
整體來說很棒,價格也非常合理! 隔音可以再更好。
- Cindy Marie (10/5): I really loves my stay here. The reception ahjussi is so nice, helpful and very accommodationg. I loved also the locatio - The location None
- Kerstin (10/5): Great Place to stay - Very clean room, and friendly staff who supported me when I had problems
As a solo female traveler I felt very safe in the neighborhood even at night
The subway station is very close which makes it easy to explore the city
I got here from the airport with the 6001 bus, which is also just a short walk to the hostel
The kitchen was also pretty clean and there are a few convenience stores close to the hostel The walls aren't very soundproof so I suggest bringing earplugs
- NATALIA (8/5): -
- Anne Tran (10/5): Great for solo travellers! - Great location. You can walk to Cheonggyecheon Stream, DDP, Sulbing bingsu and heaps of shops & restaurants. Very clean room and everyone's quiet. The manager is very kind and helpful. As a solo traveller I felt safe staying there. Probably no lifts and limited washing machine. But this is a budget hostel so that's ok with me.
- Olwen (7/5): -
- Ruka (10/5): - ベッドが予想より大きかった
オーナーさんが優しかった
日本語しかできなくても大丈夫
- Mazen (8/5): -
- Foteini (10/5): Unexpectedly marvelous - I liked the location, was unexpectedtly good (I've never visited seoul before). Metro connection was excellent. The kind sir there was very helpful, but also extremely discreet, in a sense that you might not see him again in your whole stay, but I enjoyed that very much. The room was clean and adequate, for the price was perfect. Overall I don't think I had anything I didn't like, besides the free tiny towels, but I heard that's common in Korea (and I also think they offered bigger for a tiny price, we just didn't rent them, same as sheets). I liked everything.
- mookrawee (10/5): -
- Bagila Tajimukhanova (10/5): - Тихо, уютно, в краисом месте. Поблизости узбекские шиктаны, и наши любимые кафетерий Все отлично
- Nazlı (10/5): İyiydi - Temiz ve çalışanlar güleryüzlü ayrıca konumu harika metroya 1 dk yürüme mesafesinde kesinlikle fiyat performans 😊
- Joanna (10/5): Super - Egal was für Problem hätten wir. Sofort haben wir Hilfe bekommen. Super. Vielen Dank, 0
- ShiuanLe (10/5): -
- Siti Hajar (7/5): -
- Rommel (9/5): Definitely I will stay again. - The hotel us clean.The staff are helpful. I feel safe. I can hear talking from outside my room.But its a minor issue to me
- 艾珉 (10/5): 房間乾淨,老闆很有耐心,有任何問題也可以透過翻譯軟體跟老闆詢問或溝通,會給出一個很好的建議,也會關心你住的舒適與否。 - 房間乾淨,地理位置去哪裡都很方便,老闆待人親切。 無

- NA (10/5): - 位置很好,机场大巴6001到柏顿酒店下来就是,地铁站五分钟,东大门apm五分钟,多条公交线路,非常方便
- SHUCHING (9/5): 很棒 - 雖然不大,-個人住剛好。
非常乾淨的旅舘
蓮蓬頭水量大又夠熱,𣈱快
地點好,離捷運出口近且附近很多吃的。
鬧中取靜的旅館 有免治馬桶會更好。
- DingDing (10/5): -
- Ha (9/5): -
- Camilo (10/5): - Excelente atención muy buena ubicación muy limpio todo gracias
- YUKIE (9/5): - チェックイン時間前に到着してしまったのですが、快く迎えてくださりありがとうございました。お部屋は広くてスーツケースを広げるのも快適でしたし、物を置いておける棚があるのもありがたかったです。何度も韓国旅行に来ていますが、トイレとシャワーの間にシャワーカーテンがあるゲストハウスは初めてで感動しました。トイレが濡れずとても良かったです。7番出口からが確かに一番近いのですが、改札からの距離や階段のアップダウンを考えるとスーツケースを持っている時は12番出口から外を歩いて行く方が楽でした。徒歩7分くらいです。身軽な時は7番出口からでもいいと思います。 なし
- Cem (10/5): Value for Money! - Such a wonderful and pleasing experience during our stay here. Owner was very helpful and so kind to us by helping us throughout our stay. Will stay here again if we visit Seoul again. Nothing.
- Moto (8/5): 快適な旅になりました。もう少し配慮があれば言うことなしです! - 空港リムジン(6001)バス停のベイトンホテルから徒歩約2分。最寄駅からも近く、市場や繁華街へも徒歩圏内でアクセス良好でした。
部屋もベッドも広く、キャリーケースを広げたままでも快適に過ごせました。
日本と同じAタイプのコンセントがあり、変換プラグが不要だったのも助かりました。
また、4段ラックが備え付けられていて、細かい荷物やバッグの整理にとても便利でした。 大きな鏡があり便利ですが、スタンドライトなどの照明がなく暗いため、鏡の前で化粧をすることはできませんでした。
また、ドア側にあるシャワーカーテンの丈がやや短く、注意して浴びないとカーテンを引いていても水が室内に流れてしまう点が少し気になりました。壁に背を向け、水圧を弱めにして使うと快適にシャワーを浴びることができました。
- LIM (5/5): 寝るだけでしたらお手頃です - 最寄り駅から本当に近く、을지로方面までも散歩がてら十分歩いて行けます。
帰りも乗り換え無しで金浦空港まで行けるので非常に楽でした。
オーナーも穏やかな方で、丁寧に説明してくださいました。
一人旅で、寝るだけならベッドも広く最低限のものは有り、お風呂トイレも室内にあり、同じ価格で明洞方面だと確実にゲストハウスしか見つからないと思います。
周辺にはコンビニが数件有りますが、夜遅くまで営業してるような飲食店はあまり無く、歩いて7、8分くらいのところに23時まで営業してるロッテリアとスタバがありました。 私は1階でしたが、窓がないので電気を消したら真っ暗で浴室の換気もできないので空気はあまり良くありません。
ほぼ毎日、朝出て夜帰ってたので、寝るだけでしたが快適さを求めない方には向いてると思います。
箱ティッシュくらいは用意していただくと嬉しかったです。
私の見間違いか分からないのですが、予約時に洗濯機が無料だと思っていたのですが、実際行くと有料のようだったので一度もできずに帰ってきました。
夜遅く帰ると自分で鍵を入口のセンサーにかざして開けるのですが、なかなかうまく行かず看板などの灯りも全く無いのでちょっと入れるか焦りました。

- Lauren (10/5): -
- Sin Yu (10/5): -
- Raquel (10/5): Excelente lugar! -
- WeiChen (10/5): - 老闆人非常好。我的班機時間比較晚,有機率會卡在超過00點才能入住,但老闆都耐心與我溝通確認相關事宜,入住日23點到達旅館的時候,老闆也是笑臉迎接並幫忙拿行李到二樓。
住了四晚,環境都很安靜舒服。 無
- Selim (9/5): - Konumu gayet iyi, yatağın sert oluşu hariç gayet iyidi. Personel çok yardımcı oldu. İyi bir deneyimdi. Yatak belimi ağrıttı, gerçekten konforsuzdu
- Dasha (10/5): Amazing - Amazing!
It was a great location, nearby DDP plaza!
The person renting these room is really really kind!
You have a kettle that you can use, which was nice! Also umbrellas, when it was raining!
It was amazing
- MENG HSUAN (10/5): - 交通便利 機場巴士6001 站牌很近

- Génesis (9/5): - Fue una estadía muy cómoda, tiene todas las amenidades necesarias para pasar varias noches cómodamente, la limpieza excelente y el personal muy amable. La ubicación es excelente, queda cerca de todo lo que uno necesita, tiendas de conveniencia, mini-super, estación de bus y de metro. Igualmente, esta a unos 5 min caminando de Dongdaemun Design Plaza. Recomiendo mucho este hostal.
- SAAYA (10/5): -
- Thomas (7/5): Hôtel pratique à Seoul - L'hôtel est situé un peu en dehors de l'hyper-centre dans un quartier assez tranquille, à proximité du métro. Les chambres sont fonctionnelles, les lits confortables et la salle-de-bain OK. Les espaces communs (cuisines) sont encombrés d'objets divers: radiateurs, caisses vides etc. qui les rendent pratiquement inutilisables (sans compter que de nombreux électroménagers sont en panne). Les serviettes de bain (essuis de bain) sont minuscules: il en faudrait au moins une grande pour que les personnes aux cheveux longs puissent se les sécher. Enfin, la liste d'interdits affichée dès l'entrée, puis dans la chambre, est vraiment rébarbative: on ne peut pas fumer, on ne peut pas manger dans les chambres, on ne peut pas jeter de nouilles dans les toilettes, on ne peut pas se doucher sans tirer le rideau de douche etc. Cela en devient un peu ridicule.
- Davide (9/5): -
- Ling-Yu (9/5): - 整潔 床算舒適 住宿方好像不建議平時打開窗戶通風,所以關上一整天回來會有點悶的味道
浴室排水有點慢
- Tomasz (9/5): -
- HIROMI (10/5): - 安いのにコンビニ、駅も徒歩1分で
何より管理人の男性がとても優しい。
日中は常にいて、数分離れる際は
ちゃんと離れる札が置かれており
とても安心します。部屋も安いのに
充分綺麗でした。何かあればすぐに
ラインでやりとりしてくださります。
また韓国は行くのでその際はここに泊まりたいです。
- Kuan Ting (9/5): -
- Charles (7/5): Agréable - Très bien placé, bon rapport qualité prix. Simple et confortable tout en restant assez spartiate.
- hiroko (9/5): 静かに快適に過ごせる場所 - 2回目の宿泊です。
東大門、広蔵市場と徒歩圏内、近くに美味しいお店も沢山あります。
静かで快適に過ごせました。 私の都合で前半後半で部屋が違ったのはいいのだけど、窓なしの部屋は朝起きつらいので、次回からは窓のある部屋にしようとおもいます。暗い部屋でも平気な人は気にしなければ大丈夫です。
- hiroko (9/5): -
- 中村 (10/5): -
- Jessy (9/5): Superb -
- LI-FENG (8/5): - 限制頗多
- Miki (10/5): - いつも快適に利用させていただいてます。
近くにコインランドリーもあり洗濯乾燥できて
便利でした。今ソウルでこの価格で宿泊できるところはないと思うのでとても助かります。
- Yumi (10/5): - 空港リムジンバスでのアクセスが非常によく、ホステルは清潔で、なによりオーナーさんがとても親切な宿でした!
ベッドやシャワー、タオル類などどれも宿泊には十分なもので、旅慣れた方におすすめできるホステルです。トイレ水洗もシャワー水圧温度も全く問題なく快適でした。場所も静かなところで、夜も静かに過ごせました。
今回は2泊でしたが、長く滞在する方は洗濯機の利用も出来るそうです。
近くにコンビニやオリヤンも数店舗あり、東大門周辺まで歩けば24hの飲食店も沢山あり便利でした。
とても親切で優しいオーナーさんで、また東大門〜明洞周辺を中心に観光する際にはこちらに泊まりたいと思いました。
- Sentian (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing location and everything you need is there. Friendly receptionist and would definitely recommend!
- Diana (10/5): Exceptional - I like all in this hotel especially their socket plug same as in Malaysia. Really good for someone who travel alone. Took 5 minutes to bus station nearest. A bit far for u to get limousine airport bus. You need to walk about 16 minutes to go the bus stop. Then go to Incheon Airport.
- Sopita (10/5): Exceptional - It was a simple but comfortable stay. I was happy to stay here for 10 nights. The host always greeted me warmly when I left or came back for the day. Very close to airport bus + multiple subway lines. Dongdaemun is a charming area.
- Maria (10/5): It was pretty great - It was clean and comfortable Can’t use the microwave 24/7
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice place for the price - Room was, clean, owner was cool, right neer the subway
- Vincent (9/5): Zero-frills but a perfect affordable option for when you just want to rest your feet. - Zero-frills but a perfect affordable option for when you just want to rest your feet, ready for the next day of exploring Seoul.
Located in an alleyway about 30 seconds walk from the nearest subway entrance, alley did seem sketchy at first (I arrived during the evening) but turned out to be completely safe. I stayed for 7 nights and never had an issue.
Subway exit was conviniently opposite a 7/11 and also August Chicken, a fried chicken restaurant which was some of the best I've ever had (not just in Korea!) Mini fridge while helpful keeping drinks cold, was a bit noisy. Could do with larger towels (they gave about 4-5 small hand towels which I made do as bath towels). Also could've supplied an extra pillow as standard.
- Joanna (8/5): Very good - Very nice stuff, very helpful. Good location,felt safe. A little humid in the room loud rifrigerator. budget friendly hostel, first washer is free.
- Tilly (9/5): Superb - Great location, close to the metro and plenty of shops and restaurants nearby but so quiet which is amazing! Comfortable bed and clean room. Highly recommend!
- Elizaveta (9/5): Totally recommend - Very nice and clean room, peaceful area and nice owner!!!
- Patricia (9/5): Superb -
- Milica (10/5): Exceptional - It was great! The owner adjussi is so nice :)
- Anthony Sean (8/5): - Staff were friendly. Great location beside the subway station. Very easy to get to major tourist attractions from the hotel.
I would stay again but FYI, the rooms are very small, basic and thin walls.
- Thi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Buket (10/5): Perfect - My stay could not be better because of this property. I love their hospitality and cleaning. If I come to Seoul again, definitely I will choose this property.
- Sharon (8/5): Overall short and pleasant stay - The location is really strategic and convenient to go metro. Really like the location of the stay. The owner was really friendly and helpful too. It's not too big but for us to rest at night only was sufficient and convenient enough. Near to convenient stores and few cafes.
- Yanchen (10/5): A Worthy Hostel near the Subway - Cheap but good. If you want somewhere to take a nap and spend most of the day in Seoul city town, then it is the right place. Moreover, the hostel is near to the subway, really. The landlord could clean the air conditioner (it seems to be a little dusty) since when it is getting hotter, opening the window may not be enough.
- Sabrina (8/5): Very good -
- Joel (10/5): - This was a perfect place to stay for me and my friend. It is the best stop to be as you are close to train stations and attractions by taxi. The staff are very friendly and inviting. The rooms are extremely clean, warm, homely and cosy. I would definitely stay here again whenever I go to Seoul.
- Lisa (8/5): - Gutes sauberes Zimmer im Zentrum. Freundliched Personal. Würde wieder kommen. Preis Leistungsverhältnis stimmt absolut.
- SHUCHING (10/5): CP值高乾淨簡單的住宿 - 住在二樓雙床房有對外窗,房間雖然沒有很大但很乾淨,老闆人也很好,會幫忙搬行李上下樓,廚房有微波爐可以加熱食物,退房當天晚上9點前可以寄放行李,離東大門歷史公園站7號出口非常近,7號出口正對面就是7-11,cp值高,有機會再去首爾時會再去住!
- Verified traveler (10/5): 口コミ通り!親切で快適です。 - 口コミが良かったのでここに決めましたが結果とても良かったです!
チェックインの時からチェックアウトの時まで快適に過ごせました。場所もバス停があちこちにあるのでどの方面にも割と出やすいです。
ゴミも外に出していれば捨ててくれます。
シャワーの水圧もカーテンも申し分なし、真冬の滞在でしたが部屋もあたたかかったです。
タオルもフロントで自分で取れるのが嬉しいです。使い終わったタオルは廊下に入れる場所があります。
フロントのおじさまも、寒くないですか?など気にかけてくださり、毎回会うたびに挨拶してくれます。韓国語で会話していましたがとても優しい方です。
チェックアウトの時に外で雪かきをされていたので、私は自分で荷物を2階からおろしたのですが、呼んでくださればいいのに...!!と気にしてくださってました。タクシーを呼んだことを伝えると荷物も載せてくださりお気をつけて!と見送ってもらって最後まで気分良く過ごせました。
また泊まりに行きますね。
사장님 친절하게 대해주셔서 감사했습니다!!
항상 건강하시고 새해 복 많이 받으세요.
또 이용하게습니다.
