Guest Reviews

• Michał (9/5): -
• Miguel (10/5): - Everything was great. Breakfast very good with eggs, cereal, and toast. Beds were very comfortable, and with great privacy curtains. The bathroom and showers were always clean and worked perfectly. The room slightly smal and narrow, but we each had compartments for luggage, which helped.
• Eamonn (10/5): - This place was very clean, comfortable, and in a great location. Staff were exceptional and extremely hospitable. The breakfast they included was top notch too. Eggs, toast, fresh espresso, cereal, you name it. I loved everything, this was the best hostel I stayed at in Korea.
• Samuele (9/5): -
• ismail (10/5): - her tişt pir baş bû. spas
• Verena (8/5): - Sauber, Unkomplizierter Check-In Badezimmer etwas eng, um Utensilien ablegen zu können
• Alexander (9/5): -
• Andreas (7/5): - Free basic breakfast. Location. The bathrooms smelled like piss all the time. There was no hock in the shower. The mattress was very old, I could fell the springs. I found long black hairs on top of my bed.
• Joseph (10/5): Great location, great staff, lovely breakfast. Enjoyable stay - Staff were very helpful and attentive. Privacy curtains on each bed made the stay much more enjoyable. Lockers for each person under the beds made storing valuables convenient and safe. Breakfast was included and consisted of cereal, toast, eggs, various spreads etc. Location is great. Near bus stops and tourist attractions. Going to the shower from my room I had to walk through the kitchen so was a bit awkward deciding what to take and wear to the shower.
• Tyler (10/5): -
• Luisa (8/5): - breakfast was nice very close to the tombs the showers weren‘t really clean and the door wouldn‘t close
• Andewo17 (7/5): - The location is good. Breakfast is okay - can cook your own eggs. One of the toilets/shower is okay - bit smelly and small. The other is nicer but nowhere to hang your clothes when showering. Generally not as nice as other hostels in this price range in South Korea.
• Gwen (9/5): Cozy Hostel - Really clean hostel and I loved the sandwich which you get for breakfast! Also, the owner is super friendly and very accommodating which is great as well! The female dorm is small, so a big piece of luggage may be hard to navigate. It didn’t bother me too much though.
• Emma (8/5): - Great location and very cozy
• Faust (8/5): -
• Francine T (10/5): Excellent - Everything was great, easy, & convient! No elevator & no large refrigator
• Mirko (10/5): Insgesamt eine sehr schöne Unterkunft – ich komme gerne wieder! - Sehr gemütliche Unterkunft – fast wie ein kleines Motel. Die Zimmer sind angenehm geräumig und bieten viel Platz zum Verstauen des Reisegepäcks. Der Aufenthaltsraum mit gut ausgestatteter Küche läd zum Verweilen ein. Alles befindet sich in einem sehr gepflegten und sauberen Zustand. Ich habe mich wohl gefühlt. Die Anbindung an die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel, auch von dem ausserhalb der Stadt gelegenen Bahnhof ist sehr gut. Die Lage ist ebenfalls ideal: ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt, um den Ort und die weitläufige Umgebung zu erkunden. Auch für Wanderfreunde bestens geeignet, da es viele schöne Wege in der Nähe gibt. Für einen Ausflug nach Pohang ist er ebenfalls geeignet.

• Oliver (9/5): -
• Luke (9/5): -
• YSNAGNE (8/5): - 위치, 침대가림막 베게, 매트, 화장실좁음
• HIRONORI (9/5): 清潔で、コスパ良し - スタッフと非接触だった。 入り口がちょっとわかりにくかった
• lihao (10/5): -
• Jamie (10/5): Would stay again. So conveniently located - Very conveniently located. Clean and warm. Noise carries, and other guests were up late talking.
• Simeon (10/5): -
• itorresm (8/5): - Good breakfast, easy use of the installation Only 1 toliet per sex
• KEITA (9/5): - 無人受付は初めてだったが、カウンターに分かりやすく準備してあり無事にチェックインできた。 泊っている他の客が礼儀正しく、快適に過ごせた。 マットレスが良く快適に眠れた。 朝食前にチェックアウトすると告げると夜のうちに朝食用のパンをくれた。
• Dain (9/5): Superb - Very calming Hostel with a great kitchen and superb location. Very secure, lockers where fantastic Very spacious and locked well. Beds very comfy too. Staff not overbearing, breakfast solid too. The bathroom is separate to the rooms, 2 showers, one cubicle and one urinal - not a problem for my stay but if all the rooms where full, could be a short wait to use the facilities. However this was well advertised and the facilities where spotless - just something to be aware of.
• Ruth (10/5): - Es limpio tiene muy buena ubicación el desayuno completo el personal casi no lo ves pues tú lo haces todo para que la estancia te sea lo más cómoda posible y fácil. No hay nada para dar un negativo
• Kacper (10/5): -
• Tehyen (9/5): The location is good with easy access to busses to various locations. - Breakfast! We can make our own eggs! And the place is very clean.
• Lauren (2/5): Buitengesloten om 2u ‘s nachts bij -10 graden - Locatie was goed De voordeur moest open gedaan worden met een code of de kaart die je kreeg bij inchecken. Toen ik echter om 2u ‘s nachts bij -10 graden probeerde terug binnen te geraken werkte het systeem niet. Ik heb proberen bellen naar het nummer “for emergencies” waar niemand reageerde en dan ben ik maar gewoon op de deur beginnen kloppen tot andere gasten de deur kwamen opendoen. Bij het aankaarten van het probleem bij de host in de ochtend lachten ze het weg alsof dat normaal was. Ik vind als solo traveler in een onbekend land in het midden van de nacht in koude staan en niet binnen geraken echter niet zo grappig.
• Ayumi (9/5): - Die Zimmer hatten eine gute Größe und das Bad hat alles gehabt was man gebraucht hat. Leider wurde unser Zimmer nicht warm und die Rezeption war in den drei Tagen in denen wir da waren kaum besetzt. Auf unsere Nachricht bezüglich der Heizung haben wir keine Antwort erhalten.
• Camila (9/5): Comfortable - Good location nice and clean and there was be warmers Small towels but did the trick anyway
• Richard (10/5): -
• Eamonn (3/5): Convienient location - questionable guests and a nice breakfast - Cheap, clean Beds were very uncomfortable
• Timo (10/5): - Great stay. Nice common room.
• Denis (8/5): Great location and clean - The dorms were clean and comfy, appreciated the curtain for privacy. The hostel is very well located next to Gyeongju main attractions. Self check-in was also very welcome as I had to arrive late at night. Shared bathroom was a bit cold and smelly but manageable.
• Emilie (10/5): -
• Mael (8/5): -
• kotaro (8/5): -
• Akshansh (10/5): -
• Madaan (9/5): Great stay, washroom to be increased - Great location, Clean, Really nice breakfast - they even had dry fruits Only one washroom
• David (9/5): - Clean, comfortable and good location walking distance to the main sites in town and amenities. Generous breakfast included. Free towels given every day. The doors to the shower cabins don't lock so there is the risk that someone could walk in on you. Heaters are ceiling mounted meaning the heat mostly stays near the ceiling so it could get rather chilly.
• kilian (6/5): -
• Ky (10/5): -
• Zoé (10/5): Parfait - Hostel très propre, très organisé, bien placé. La salle commune est très agréable pour cuisiner ou se reposer (il y a même des masse pied et mollets). Les salles de bain / toilettes sont propres. Les lits sont confortables, il y a une lumière, deux prises, une petit table et un casier pour sécuriser ses affaires.
• Scholl (9/5): Cute capsule hotel overall - Good location, just next to the bus stops and the historical attractions. Comfortable and clean There weren’t really staff present all the time. I only saw them twice in my 2 nights stay so for example when there was no more toilet paper in the bathrooms, I could not find anyone which was a little annoying
• Amalia (8/5): Tolle Lage und Frühstück sehr lecker nur reinigen des Bades wäre öfters wünschenswert und prüfen des Toilettenpapier. - Das Frühstück war gut reichlich Auswahl und man konnte sein Eier selber machen ob Omelette oder gekochtes Ei Toast Marmelade Cornflakes kaffe Tee . Die Lage war gut ziemlich zentral man konnte zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten laufen .Es gab Heizdecke aber auch Ventilator mit warme Luft . Das Frauen Badezimmer mit Toilette und Dusche hätte öfters gereinigt werden können und am letzten Tag war kein Toiletten vorhanden.
• Jason (9/5): - Room was clean, comfy, great value as breakfast was included. Lights out at 11pm
• NAYEON (6/5): - 관광지에서 가깝고, 혼자 온 여행객 배려를 잘 해주었다. 후라이팬 관리가 잘 안되어 쩐내가 남.
• Miguel (9/5): -
• Salomé (7/5): -
• Japheth (10/5): Lovely stay in Gyeongju - This hostel was a great place to stay in Gyeongju! Beds felt pretty private and there was ample locker space for luggage underneath the bed. Breakfast was generous with eggs provided as well. The bus to Bulguksa is just across the street, and the bus from the train station is also close by. For everything else, it's walkable. The hostel also had a lot of information posted, and there was a table for guests to socialize in the evening as well. -
• Charlotte (5/5): -
• Thomas (8/5): -
• Aleksandra (6/5): - Śniadanie najlepsze jakie mieliśmy w Korei! Jajka, tosty, dżemy, masło orzechowe, orzeszki. Kawa, herbata. Lokalizacja jest ok - dość blisko do kilku atrakcji. Da się dojechać z dworca autobusowego i kolejowego. Fajny pomysł ze smyczami na szyję do powieszenia karty. Dużo kapci do wyboru. Nie widziałam nikogo na recepcji przez cały swój pobyt. Nie mogłam się o nic zapytać. Pani sprzątająca o 22 weszła mi do kabiny prysznicowej sprawdzając czy ktoś nadal jest (mimo że woda leciała). Najdziwniejszy zapis, że od 11-15 nie można przebywać w swoim pokoju (!) mimo, że za niego się zapłaciło. W łazienkach potwornie zimno! Zostawianie otwartych okien na pewno nie pomagało. Pokój klaustrofobicznie mały. Brak jakichkolwiek wieszaków na kurtki.
• Carlos (9/5): Correcto - La habitación es super correcta. Lo que necesitas para dormir y ya La zona de ducha y wc de hombres es muy pequeña. Un wc y dos duchas (una no funcionaba)
• LE GOUIC (9/5): -
• Lucia (6/5): - El desayuno y la ubicación La cama es muy incómoda
• Capucine (8/5): - I didn't see anyone from the hostel management, but they made all the instructions very clear for the self check-in and were really reactive when I contacted them with questions :) It was a bit tricky finding my way around the breakfast, it would be nice to put the plates, etc. out for example.
• Sebastien (7/5): -
• Ramakrishna Kumbar (10/5): - Clean rooms, Good Air conditioning/heating, and breakfast was healthy and nutritious! comfortable beds.
• Joran (8/5): Great place to stay - Great place to stay, breakfast is nice. Location walking distance from where you want to be.
• JOHN (10/5): I do it again, thank you. Very nice. - Very clean, great location, very happy to stay.
• Øfstedal (8/5): Too many men and not enough rooms? - Clean room, shower and toilets. Breakfast was good. I did not like that I booked 2 nights from Friday to Sunday in a room for women, 4 beds in totalt. When I woke up Sunday morning, there was a man sleeping in the bed next to mine. He did not do anything wrong, he had been given the bed the night before (had proof).
• Carl (8/5): -
• Hugo (9/5): -
• JOHN (10/5): Perfect location. Very clean and well organized and good breakfast included. - Very good location and very clean. The staff is very responsive. Everybody staying there is disrespectful. It’s not a party place. It’s a wonderful place to stay. I highly recommend it! Their laundry service was fantastic.
• Adley (10/5): - Parfait ! Je recommande vivement cet hôtel qui est juste à côté des sites culturels du coin ! Parfois, il peut faire très froids dans les parties communes quand la porte est ouverte. Mais avec un bon gros pull ce n'est pas dérangeant !
• Stina (9/5): -
• David (9/5): - La comodidad de la cama y la facilidad para hacer la colada Podría haber algún baño más
• Valentine (8/5): - Store pour isoler son lit, lit confortable et propre. 1 espace de rangement sous le lit pour ses valises. Salle de bain commune, chambre petite pour ouvrir sa valise. Suffisant pour 1 ou 2 nuits.
• Manuel (9/5): -
• nicolas (4/5): Plutôt pour de jeunes voyageurs - Bon emplacement, hormis l hote d accueil le personnel est très agréable. Petit déjeuner inclus En bord de route donc bruyant, les chambres ne sont pas isolé donc vous entendez toutes les discussions de la salle commune jusqu'à minimum 23h00... après vous entendez les vas et viens nocturne... et dans notre cas, il y avait un groupe qui pensait être seul dans l hotel. Obligé de dormir avec des boulles quies et encore la on les entendait encore. Enfin, j ai pris une douche avec une énorme touffe de poil...
• Antoine (10/5): -
• Lucas (7/5): -
• Valeria Alejandra (8/5): Aceptable - La cocina está bien equipada y el baño también. Tiene un ambiente muy amigable. Las toallas y las mantas no parecían estar bien lavadas. Es muy chico el lugar y al estar el área común tan cerca, se escucha todo lo que habla la gente.
• Estela F.V. (9/5): -
• Ece (10/5): - Konumu iyi, temiz ve rahat bir prtamı var. Çok hoş bir hostel. Yatakların perdesi olması da tercih sebebi.
• Mauro (10/5): - Posizione e servizi offerti
• passakorn (8/5): -
• Aleksandra (8/5): -
• Anastasia (7/5): - Camere pulite, armadietto con chiusura a chiave bello spazioso. Letto comodo con tenda in modo da permettere la privacy. Buona colazione inclusa, cucina nello spazio comune ben attrezzata. Buona posizione. Da sapere che tra le 11h e le 15h non è possibile stare in ostello. Pulizia dei bagni da migliorare.
• Glenn (10/5): - Great location. Good breakfast.
• Titouan (8/5): -
• Dylan (7/5): Literally perfect minus the beds--like sleeping on an iron slab. But super lovely otherwise:) -
• Phuong (10/5): - Perfect
• Arthus (10/5): -
• Timothée (10/5): Hostel super bien ! - La rapport qualité prix imbattable pour un Hostel il y’a même la climatisation dans les chambres. Les services proposés comme laver son linge et louer un vélo son a prix doux. Le bruit des serrures électroniques de chaque chambre qui réveille les gens qui dorment mais la réception met des bouchons d’oreille à disposition.
• Jaeyeol (9/5): 깔끔하고 잘 갖춰진 경주 게스트하우스 - 친절한 스텝분들, 잘 갖춰진 시설, 맛있는 조식. 남자화장실의 경우 1층에 다른 공간도 사용할 수 있다고 안내되어 있지만 1칸만 사용할 수 있어 다소 아쉽습니다. 그래도 필요할 때 사용을 못한 적은 없습니다. 전체공간에 비해 주방이 작은 편이라 조식시간이 다소 붐비고 식사자리가 부족한 느낌이 들기는 했습니다 그래도 세심하게 챙겨주시는 직원이 있어 큰 불편함은 없었습니다.
• Ece (10/5): Her şey güzeldi - Merkezi konumda, temiz ve rahat bir ortam. Rahatlıkla kalınabilir.
• 재희 (10/5): - 친구랑 둘이 갔는데 가격대비해서 위치도 번화가랑 가깝고요 방도 괜찮았고 침구도 뽀송해서 좋았어요!!직원분도 친절하셨어요!! 화장실 샤워실도 깔끔해서 좋았어요!! 밤에는 좀 쌀쌀해서 난방을 틀려고 했는데 냄새가 좀 나더라고요ㅠㅠ그거말곤 정말 다 좋았어요!!!!!
• Charles (8/5): - Hostel propre, de taille suffisante pour que ce soit sympathique mais sans ressembler à une usine. Les lits sont confortables, de bonne taille, avec un rideau pour l'intimité. Comme trop souvent en Corée, on ne rencontre jamais de personnel. J'ai posé une question via le chat de Booking à la réception et n'est reçu une réponse que 24h après ...
• Manar (10/5): Great!! - Its really clean and well maintained Even the shared washrooms were clean and nice! The location is also good Nothing
• Alex (8/5): -
• Maeva (9/5): Auberge au top - L’emplacement est parfait, le dortoir est pas petit, l’espace pour ranger les affaires est grand. Les espaces communs sont biens et grands. Le petit dej est bien.
• Lisandro (10/5): -
• Alejandro (8/5): Muy bueno - Mucho espacio en locker, desayuno gratis bastante bueno, maquinas para masajes de pie gratis Lavar ropa muy caro, las cortinas hacen mucho ruido
• lai (9/5): - 樓下麵包店可以寄放行李（就是放在門口冷氣旁） 看起來沒有監視器 只能相信店員阿姨們了 阿姨們人很好 還送了兩塊小點心 服務人員很親切 超過11點沒有熱水
