The stay was great overall. However, sometimes when I shower at midnight there was no hot water, so I need to shower with cold water🥲. And my bathroom light was broken as well. The general service was okay, the person at the front desk was nice as well. But when I try to contact them before my travel I can’t get to them even in their service hours… Overall, it was a good stay beside the things mentioned above.

The noise at night were really loud. We stayed for 3 nights in total and after the first night we requested to change room, the staff said since the rooms were fully booked so that we could not change our room on the second night. We accepted and they change the room for us on the third night, however the shower noise of the room next to us was too loud too. Beside that, the location is good but not great. It located on a slope so that we had to climb up with our luggage, very tired. Their is no bathtub in the bathroom, the shower place is very small. At other hotels I got a plug adapter for free but this hotel required us to buy the adapter for 5k won. The only good poin of this hotel is that the staff were really friendly and can speak English and Japanese. Overall I DO NOT recommend this hostel to anyone.
Response from Property: Dear Chuc, Warm greetings from 123Hostel. First and foremost, I am sincerely sorry for all the troubles during your stay. Even though we could not prevent this bad case in advance, we promise that we will focus more on our service mind and check again our service process. I hope my sincere apology letter can make you feel better. Best Regards, Wynn Wan

We were pleasantly surprised with how clean this hostel was. It was in a fantastic location and the amenities were great. The staff were helpful too. There was a printer (we were charged 500 won per sheet). They have a washing machine but after washing, there was a damp smell to the clothes. The tumble dryer was not very effective either (even after 3 hours, the clothes were still damp and had a smell and we didn’t overload the machine). I’d recommend this hostel to anyone who wants to be near Myeongdong which is a fantastic place for shopping.

The bed is not the most comfortable and the sink is quite small but considering it’s a hostel for a lower price, it’s pretty decent

Location is convenient. Just a few minutes walk from Myeong Dong station exit 3. But when I walk in to the lobby there’s a very stinky smell until the room. Besides from the hygiene, the TV has Netflix and YouTube to watch which you will not feel bored.
Response from Property: Hello, first We apologize for the inconvenience.With reference to your precious words,WE checked the lobby. Since there's a kitchen,I think it smelled uncomfortable with you.Ventilation was performed, and a food processor was used.,Thank you for your valuable review.To better serve youI'll always try.

The hotel is very close to Myeongdong station. It is very easy to find. It's good that you can check in by yourself anytime after you get the information from the hotel. The room is quite good and clean. The only thing which is not good is that you can hear people all around your room you can hear the noise from outside the room and room beside you. But as I only stay 1 night so it's ok.
Response from Property: We are so grateful to hear that.

The location is really convenient, but I booked a single room that was small and I had to open my bag to the brim, leaving no way to walk🥲
