Hostel Korea Original

We booked a twin room shared bathroom (room 204) during Fall season. The hostel is located in a safe and a quiet neighborhood. Safe to walk even at night. Near subway station and bus stop. The location was near to Sinseol-Dong subway station than in Dongmyo, though accessible on both station. Easy to get to the airport via Airport limousine bus 6002. Staffs were friendly and very helpful, the male host is a wonderful, hard working, jack of all trades doing and fixing everything making sure everything is ok for his guests! Staffs are friendly. Here are some of the FREE and PERKS from this hostel: 1. Laundry 2. Breakfast, coffee, Juice, unlimited water. You can also cook and use the kitchen tools. 3. Toiletries (toothpaste, body wash,facial wash, shampoo & conditioner) 4. Fast WiFi, 5. Change of bed linen & pillow covers (you can ask for a cleaning service if you wish, just place the sign onto your door knob). 6. You could leave your luggage before and/or after check in. To sum up my niece and I have a wonderful and a pleasant stay at this hostel! We'll definitely book here again. Highly recommended. Good value for your money.

The following are my feedback that need improvement AND it did not really make our stay less enjoyable. I’m putting it in my review only because I want the hostel to improve even more! Again, we have a very lovely and wonderful stay at this hostel given all the things I specified! I would definitely recommend this hostel! 1. Mini refrigerator in our room is not functioning, had to unplugged it since it is noisy and we're not using it. Better to dispose this ref and put a side table instead. 2. My bed near the TV is a little bit squeaky, a good tightening a few screws and bolts will do or buy a new frame. 3. The room walls on the second floor were a little thin, made of wood and I could hear people shuffling around and snoring at night. 4. There is no heater in the room (we stayed during fall), but if you close all the windows, the room isn't too cold actually. But would be great if there could be a heater provided. 5. There are mosquitoes in our room but good thing there's an electric mosquito repeller that we could plugged in. 6. Things that the hostel can improve on would be the cleanliness/orderliness of the receiving (lounge) area. I think they should maintain the orderliness of the receiving/lounge area so that people can relax there and received a warm welcome from their daily activity or upon check in. There are chairs, tables, and a sofa but barely used since heater are not plugged in and it was cold (I understand if the hostel is saving electricity cost) Among other things, I could not comment much with the price that I paid for. Personally, I'd prefer this hostel over a hotel because its homey and relaxing.
