It was a very comfortable inn. They left me alone, in a good way, so it was easy to stay there. I was able to stay at a low price because I was responsible for taking out the trash and changing towels myself. The bathroom and room were well-maintained, so I felt safe and secure every day. While the bathroom was clean, the handheld shower wouldn't work; no matter how hard I tried, the only way I could get hot water was from the large, round, fixed shower head attached from above. As I was in recovery from plastic surgery, I had to bathe without splashing water on my face, which was difficult, so I ended up wetting a towel with hot water and wiping my body with it. Also, while this may not be a problem for some people, the noise from the refrigerator and the bathroom exhaust fan bothered me on the first day, making it difficult to sleep. There were noises and voices from other rooms, but they were at a level where I could sleep without being bothered. There was a 7-Eleven on the first floor, and it was a fun area for shopping, with a nearby alley packed with stylish shops, restaurants, and bars. It's close to Changdeokgung and Unhyeong-gun, so you can enjoy sightseeing, and with easy access to Anguk Station and Jongnosamga Station, I was able to go out and explore various places. Best of all, the road in front of the hotel is made of brick, making it easy to walk, and there was little traffic, making it perfect for a stroll during my downtime. I'd like to stay here again. Thank you for your help.

Very nice, next door to 7-Eleven, 50 meters away from the royal palace, with a private roof to visit and relax. But! The roof closes at 20:00, no idea why. Couldn't come up after a long tiring day of touristic fun and chill out on it with a botte of icy tea. I booked this hostel counting on nice evenings on top of this roof. Had to return to the room instead.

It's a bit of a walk from the station, but it's more convenient than I thought as you can use lines 1 and 3. It's a short walk from the cafes in Anguk, and it's easy to visit the food stalls and shops in Jongno 3. It's also in a good location as you can walk to Gwangjang Market, although it's a little far. The room is spacious and the shower/toilet is also spacious. I could hear everything from next door, but they were rarely in the room and I was tired and able to sleep at night so it didn't bother me. I'd like to use it again.

The price was a gift compared to other hotels in Seoul in early May. Since it is a hostel, the reception is not open 24 hours, there is no housekeeping. Conveniently located near the main attractions and the bus stop to the airport
