It was the first time I came to Korea and I decided to stay in this hotel after reading the good reviews on booking. The environment was well maintained and the soundproofing was not very good. I could hear the loud chatting next door clearly while having supper in the middle of the night. Fortunately, they only stayed for one night and were outside. There are earplugs on the table for guests, and there is even a luggage scale at the door, which is very considerate. If I come to Ewha University in the future, I will still consider staying here~ The transportation is also very convenient👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[Summary: There are better choices]Advantages: low price, self-service check-in and check-out, close to the subway, public facilities (washing machine, microwave oven, umbrella, etc.)Disadvantages: The soundproofing is very poor, the bed is so hard that it causes back pain, and there is a sound when you turn over. The washing and drying machine has to be used for more than 2 or 3 hours to get it right. I asked for cleaning, but no one came to clean it.Although it’s only NT$1,500 per night, everyone should try their best not to choose this hotel🥲

PROS: Very good location. Very good service. Very friendly and helpful staff. They always know where the best spots in the city are and how to get to them. Very good breakfast, with cornflakes, sliced ​​bread, coffee machine, hot water machine, milk, orange juice, cappuccino, teas, eggs to make an omelette, stoves and pans to cook whatever you want.CON: The problem with the hostel is the size of the rooms and bathrooms. Very small. They look like a doll. But always very clean and well looked after.

The room is really clean and the location is very convenient. The hostel is quite equipped. There is hairdryer in the room, plugs that are universally compatible and clean towels. The sound insulation is very bad, we could hear our neighbours talking and singing (albeit horrendously) near midnight. The bed is not the most comfortable. The bathroom is really small but enough space that I’m not knocking into anything. There is only one dryer and washing machine for a hostel of 21 guest rooms. They are only usable from 9am to 10pm (probably because the machines are noisy) but during my stay, there were some inconsiderate guests who started the machines from 7am+ and hogged the machines. They did the same that evening and the following morning. The hostel should probably invest in another set of machines for its guests.

Although the room space is a bit small, I don't think this is what I particularly care about, because after all, the price is quite acceptable, but the sound insulation is really bad. I was scared to death in the middle of the night on the first day I checked in. There were people there around 2 o'clock in the middle of the night. There was a knock on our door, and then there was the sound of someone knocking on something. We didn't dare to sleep at all. The next day it was 12 o'clock in the evening, and it was like there was a party next door. There was really loud laughter, and there were people knocking on clothes hangers all the time. The sound, and then the talking was so loud that I could hear it. I felt like I couldn’t sleep well for the past two days~ (I only stayed for two days) and then the toilet... was really full of minis (I had a double room), and the socket took a long time to charge. I found that I couldn’t even charge it in. I didn’t see anyone at the counter after two days here.

This is the second time I have stayed there, and always recommend my relatives who are on holiday to Korea to stay there, the location is easy, clean, the rooms are quite big, easy access, close to the 24 hour market, there is an elevator, the staff and owner are very friendly, just However, they were less strict about using the laundry machine for guests because when I stayed, there was 1 hotel guest who used the laundry machine for a whole day, without taking his clothes that had been washed, so other guests couldn't use the laundry machine during their stay at the hostel. Thank you for his hospitality
