I had a late check in and I forgot to let them know but luckily then left the key with my name on it in an envelop. The place was very clean. It looks new and simple. Staff were nice. I will be back for sure.

I was told that the bed i was about to select had bugs! I had friendly roommates; wouldve been nice to know that i was booked 📖 into a hostel & that I'd be sharing a room with up to 7 other people.

Clean and seemed to be well managed. Stayed two nights in an 8 bed dorm. Deducted one star as the internet wasn't working for a few hours the first morning.

Disappointing stay.
This was rated as a 4 star hotel on hotels. com and on arrival it turned out to be a backpacker hostel with shared shower and toilet facilities. Not something that was evident when booked. TV didn't tune to channels, no facilities within the room, WiFi was poor and no breakfast available. The room, however, was clean and well kept but the hostel was noisy. Left very early, very disappointed.

It's a good place, but we paid twice what we paid for other places on our 4,5 week trip and this wasn't worth it. There are shared bathrooms that are ok and a nice kitchen area, but you are not allowed to drink or eat in you room and we had to remove dovets and pillowcases ourselves and put in their laundry basket. It was also a lot of noise, music and people opening and closing doors. It's not big stuff but really, for that price, nope.

가성비 굿! 추천합니다!
호스텔은 처음 이였으나 괜찮았습니다. 방배정 운이 좋았던건지 8명 방인데 너무너무 조용하고 다음날 모두 늦은기상에 푹 잘 수 있었어요!!! 식당도 깨끗했어요 다만 음식이 있는 공간이고 여러사람이 사용하는 곳이여서 파리가..ㅎㅎㅎ 하카하우스는 추천
