老闆人非常好，早上就能寄放行李，還順便問我要不要先去樓上吃早餐XD（退房後竟然也能寄放行李）
淋浴設施、房間衛生也都很好。如果是獨旅，想住青旅壓低預算可以考慮這裡！

お部屋も綺麗でシャワースペース、トイレも清潔でとても良かったです。スタッフの皆さんも親切でチェックアウト時にお土産もいただきました。スーツケースも運んでいただけます。フロントが3階、部屋が4階、水、コーヒー等飲める、冷蔵庫、朝食等が取れる場所が5階になっているので、階段が苦手な人には不向きですが、それ以外は全て良かったです。

本当に素晴らしいホステルでした。立地も設備もサービスもスタッフの人柄も全てにおいて完璧でした。朝食もあるし、トイレはウォシュレット付いてるし、シャワールームも複数個あって脱衣場もある。洗濯機乾燥機も無料です。今までたくさんのホステルに泊まってきましたがこんなに快適なホステルは今までありませんでした。いちばん良かったのは屋上にあるコミュニティルームです。雰囲気が良くて、コーヒー無料で、ウォーターサーバーもあって、たくさんの人と交流できました。スタッフの方の誕生日も一緒に祝わせてもらって、ケーキまで頂きました笑。今回は平日でしたが、週末は屋上でBBQもやってるらしいです！また必ず行きます！

I had a fantastic stay at this hostel. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the facilities were modern and well-maintained. You can really feel that the owner puts a lot of heart into running this place — every detail is thoughtful and well-organized.
What stood out the most was the owner’s hospitality. He gave me excellent recommendations for local food and restaurants, and every place he suggested turned out to be amazing. Thanks to him, I got to enjoy not only a comfortable stay, but also some of the best meals I had in Seoul.
The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and I felt at home the whole time. I truly appreciate the kindness and effort that went into making this such a great experience. I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in Seoul.
Highly recommended!

The receptionist is very good, whether it's leaving the bag before the time or recommending various parts, speaking politely, kind.
Cleanliness The accommodation is clean, the room is clean, the bathroom has things to use, hair dryer, comb, mirror, such as hair ties, which is impressive.
Location is next to the blue line subway, dongdaemun, 2 stations to jongno 3 ga, cute price, not expensive but good.
Finally, the kitchen + rooftop is a good atmosphere, open YouTube, Netflix, watch, sit and relax.

It's close to Dongdaemun Station, the room was clean, there was a toothbrush, and I was grateful that there were slippers in the room!
It can get busy depending on the time of day, but I'm grateful that there is a washer/dryer and detergent provided!
The staff were also very kind, and I'd like to stay here again when I come to Korea!!
