I rent a month here and it was not the bestCheck-in time is ridiculous (16.00)???The room is not clean well (when I wipe my white towel on surfaces I can see it turned black)Also some minor problems like they didn't provide basic hygiene things like shampoo, body wash, towels, and toothbrush and if you want that you have to buy it yourself.They didn't provide the garbage bag and cleaning amenities and charge 20k for cleaning service.If you stay there only for a few days, they will provide it, don’t worry.But the good part is this place is really near the Seoul National University of Education Station, Olive Young, daiso, Nobrand and the next subway stop is Gangnam. You can buy stuff easily.They have the washing machine and dryer and you can use them for free. Bring your detergent.They also have a self-serve kitchen in the 5th floor but the free food there is expired so you need to buy yourself new ones.Overall you need a place to stay this one is fair because it is cheap.P/S: The staff is not so fluent in English but they really tried their best to help me. I really appreciate that. If you need to ask something, use the Kakaotalk channel.

This was our first time staying at a hostel, my friend and I.The location was perfect for us: plenty of access to grocery stores, convenient stores, public transportation. The upstairs kitchen, though we didn't use it, looked beautiful, clean and ready for use. We stole glances of it when going to the 5th floor reception for check-in questions and to see if we could get assistance to hail a cab when checking out.About a quarter to four, my friend and I still hadn't received our room information (booking told us we would get it around 4 p.m.). Friend called customer help and they said to go to the 5th floor. They gave us a room right away.We checked in the room and we immediately noticed the smell of mildew. The mildew and mold smell wouldn't go away in spite of using air conditioning and using the bathroom fan.Upon check out, we went to the 5th floor for help with hailing a cab. No one was present, however, there was a note on a landline telephone at the desk. Friend called and they said no one was working today so they couldn't help us.The rating really reflects the strong mildew odor permeating the room and bathroom and mold in the bathroom.

Two people stayed for four days and three nights. The store only provided a small bar of shower gel and shampoo for two people. The amount was not enough to last three days, so I sent a message to ask for more. When I asked questions before checking in, the store responded to messages very quickly. Quick, once I made a request, I didn’t receive any reply for four days. I couldn’t provide at least a reply. I felt bad. The room password I provided at the beginning was also wrong = =

There is literally nothing to brag about, the stay is absolutely wonderful! Room was spacious and clean, but what I love most is the public kitchen! Provided with all sorts of cooking equipment, will revisit next time!

Another self service hotel in Seoul. Go up to the reception on the 5th floor, call the manager and you will be provided with the room number and password to your room. Nobody is there to serve you. Should you need an exchange in towels or extra toilet papers then you will have to request it thru Kakao talk. No cups in the room, you will have to get it at the reception. The room is modern and clean. They have a cafe at the ground floor and some restaurants and convenience stall nearby.

It's stylish, well-located, and good value for money, but the cleaning wasn't very good. You can even see some mold in the bathroom. If management improves, it's a place I highly recommend.

There was no explanation about the hotel's services anywhere, and I didn't know how to change or ask for towels until I read the reviews on bookingcom.
