    “That's great!”

    The room was very compact, but since we are short, it wasn't a big deal for us. The main concern was the toilet and shower; not being able to flush paper was tough. When taking a shower, the toilet also gets wet, and I wished there was a public bath nearby. The staff was very kind and friendly. The terrace was amazing, but since it also served as a smoking area, it was uncomfortable when someone was smoking. The breakfast was light and good. We stayed for three nights, and every time we had a slightly different menu, which was fun. The location was excellent; I could quickly go downstairs if there was a store I was interested in from the rooftop. The convenience was the best; it was also close to the station. While it didn't have the luxury of a hotel, it felt like an accessible hotel where you could engage in cross-cultural communication.

    “Great location, everything you need, and good value for money!!”

    It feels a bit expensive for a hostel, but considering its special location in Myeongdong, it seems like good value for money. The location is really good, the breakfast is decent, and the rooms are clean and equipped with everything you need. There is almost no soundproofing with the adjacent rooms, so I recommend it for travelers going with friends only.

    “Repeat confirmed.”

    It was my first time using a hostel, so I stayed feeling a bit nervous about what it would be like. The toilet, shower, and sink were quite compact, and I was a bit worried at first about whether I could manage them, but once I got used to it, I was able to use them without any issues. It's a classic case of "when in Rome," as there was a water cooler and a washing machine on the same floor, and I could get new towels if I asked. I was told that cleaning could be requested, but since I stayed for three nights and four days, I didn't ask for cleaning and borrowed a mop to do a simple clean myself, which was just right for me and I had a comfortable stay. Breakfast was also included, but I only used it to have coffee, which was casual and pleasant. I think the high rating of this facility has many aspects that can only be understood by actually staying here. There may be preferences in fitting or not, but I felt I would like to use it again. This location at this price range was truly good. The room was quite dry, so I was doing laundry as a substitute for humidifying, and being able to use the washing machine freely was very helpful. Finally, I remembered that I forgot to return the drying rack to its original place after borrowing it. I apologize for that.

    “The staff's response is very good.”

    The room, toilet, and bathroom felt a bit cramped, but there were no issues with the shower water pressure or the comfort of the bed. Room cleaning is not done unless requested, but towels and bath mats can be exchanged daily at the front desk, and you can also get toothbrushes. The location is excellent, being close to Myeongdong Station, and most importantly, the staff were very polite and friendly, which made communication easy and allowed me to feel at ease during my stay. I would like to use this place again.

    “Best place to stay”

    The location is great for the price, and the service is excellent value for money. I will definitely use it again next time. Some particularly good points are: - Free laundry detergent included (no dryer) - The manager, who is on the first floor of the building, is very kind - Everything is clean The spacious toilet has a shower, so it can get wet after showering, but there are slippers for the toilet, so personally, it didn't bother me. *There are many guests from outside Japan, and rooms fill up quickly, so I recommend booking at least 7 days in advance.
