Hongdae Hostel KOZAYO

8.9/10

So happy! Had a very comfortable stay. The deposit was 50,000 KRW. The front desk staff was really helpful; I asked him to wash and dry my clothes, which cost 10,000 KRW. I didn't manage to wake up for breakfast, so I didn't have any. The room was big enough for one person to sleep comfortably, and the location is excellent! There's a 24-hour soup and rice place downstairs! The only downside is that the subway station is a bit of a walk, about 10+ minutes, but you can get to popular spots in just a few minutes.

Oh my goodness! I was so lucky to choose this hostel. I originally booked a room with two single beds and a private bathroom, but the front desk upgraded me directly to a triple room with one queen bed and one single bed – it was fantastic! It was also very close to the elevator, and there's a luggage scale available in the hallway. Downstairs, there's a huge Olive Young (pharmacy/beauty store), right in the heart of Myeongdong. Across the street, there's a convenience store and the delicious Sinseon Seolleongtang, so everything you need is super convenient. The hostel offers a simple breakfast; personally, I didn't find it particularly delicious, but it was acceptable. You have to wash your own dishes after eating, and the hygiene conditions are excellent. The front desk service was also very enthusiastic and spoke English. I recommend booking two months in advance for more choices and better prices.

The location is very convenient, about a 5-minute walk from the subway and bus stations. The room isn't huge but is well-laid out, clean, and the bedding is comfortable. The front desk staff were very friendly and check-in was quick. Overall, it offers great value for money, and I would consider staying here again next time I visit [city].

La Villa Hotel

We stayed at this hotel from August 10th to 17th. Location-wise, it's a 50-minute commute to the city center. Check-in is done via a machine, so don't expect a smiling face or a warm welcome wishing you a pleasant stay. Not a huge deal, though. The room isn't cleaned during your stay, as the owner (an elderly gentleman) informed us. However, towels were changed twice, and toiletries were replenished. The bed was quite firm, which wasn't ideal after long walks until midnight, but it only bothered us for the first 15 minutes before we'd drift into a deep sleep. The air conditioning works well, and so does the extractor fan. The panoramic windows really add to the hotel's appeal. Overall, I'd give it 2 stars, which is what it's rated.

Calistar Hotel

I had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the dedicated female area requires a secure code to enter, which made me feel very safe as a solo woman.However, the room comfort was quite poor. I was assigned a top bunk bed, and the room was incredibly hot because the air conditioning had been turned off.The bathroom facilities are located outside of the room and consist of a universal toilet. While the shower itself was okay, the towel provided was tiny and looked like it had already been used.While the security for women is great, the hot room and poor linen quality mean I would likely look elsewhere next time.

It was nice that they let us take one drink per person, and the room was spacious and clean, which was nice😍 The staff were all very friendly! It was such a great experience that my Japanese friend said he wanted to stay here again when he comes to Korea❤️ I'm glad you made good memories.

Gangnam Seven Hostel

CNAnonymous User
Stayed here again. It's close to Gangnam, and this time, this place was the cheapest. **Facilities:** They provide a free water dispenser with both hot and cold water, and a kitchen where you can cook. The hot water and air conditioning both work great. However, the bed rails felt a bit flimsy and wobbly. **Cleanliness:** Clean. **Environment:** It's comfortable when there aren't many people, but it gets very crowded when full... the space is just too small. **Service:** Average.

Hotelette Seoul Station

The room was extremely small — like, no space to even open a suitcase. As soon as you walk in, it’s basically just the bed, and then the bathroom. Overall, it didn’t feel very clean. The bathroom had a musty smell, and it honestly felt like they tried to cover it up by spraying a lot of bleach. Amenities were very minimal — just water and a hair dryer. The hair dryer kept turning on and off, so it was pretty frustrating to use. The location, though, was the best part. I booked it because I had an early KTX train, and it’s right in front of Seoul Station Exit 10, which was super convenient. But for the price, the value is really poor. I definitely wouldn’t book it again. Especially if you have luggage — I strongly don’t recommend it because there’s literally no space to put a suitcase. I was lucky I only had a backpack for a short trip.

Great location, with several good restaurants nearby. The room was good value for the price. Myeongdong isn't much cleaner, and this place was a really good deal. They even provided disposable toiletries. Overall, I think it's a good place, especially considering how cheap it was.
