Modern, clean establishment with a helpful owner.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026

Really great hostel. It’s like staying at a hotel in terms of the facilities. Free pod coffee, tv to watch the football, free laundry, great showers, great beds with curtains, proper AC. The staff are really helpful and friendly, often chatting to you. I lost my phone when I was in Seoul and the owner literally came into the city to help me find it. That’s A* service!

10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026

I love the fact that it was near everything and that you can check in without having to wait for a receptionist (my flight arrived during an odd hour).

I guess more toilets would be nice but I know its not exactly easy to just add a bathroom in there. Also, the walls are too think I think. I can hear every scratching and every dropped penny from adjacent rooms.
