So far from the station. They have no elevator and i stayed at 4th floor. Their pillows are so thin and small. I can't sleep with it. But can go to the convenience shop at the corner. The bathroom looks too old ,and the room's smell was so bad. And the last one the room is not soundproof. So I can hear the room next to me talked and laughed all night.
친구와 함께 이용했는데 저희방에 전용화장실과 전용 씽크대가 있어서 너무 편했습니다. 화장실에는 샴프와 바디워시 화장지가 구비되어 있습니다. 수건은 1층 출입구 쪽에 얼마든지 사용가능하도록 비치해 두었습니다. 방안에 침대도 두개, 티비, 드라이기도 구비되어 있습니다. 주방에 음식 요리도 가능하도록 조리도구와 냄비와 그릇들도 구비되어 있어서 혹시나 친구들과 요리해 드시기 편리합니다. 저희는 사용하지 않았지만 요. 방도 온도조절 가능하도록 되어 있어 따뜻하게 잘수 있어요. 날씨가 더워 보일러는 틀지 않았습니다.
친절한 안내 덕분에 만족스러운 숙박이었습니다. 침대도 편안하고 공간도 넓어서 매우 편안했어요. 제일 좋았던 건 위치가 정말정말 좋아서 관광하기가 편했다는 것이었습니다! 하지만 청결을 중요하게 생각하는 분들은 신중하셨음 좋겠습니다. 창틀에 낀 먼지와 방충망 없는 창은 좀 당황스러웠어요ㅠㅠ
Staff was really nice and helpful.
BUT the bed was disgustingly dirty, so much so that I literally slept on the floor. The flush on the toilet was broken. If it wasn't for those issues the hotel would be super lovely, but I just can't with the bedding.
My girlfriend and I stayed at the YaKorea hostel in Hongdae during our first visit to Seoul in June 2018. We found out when we got there that the amenities are shared with the nearby Kimchee Sinchon Guesthouse, which was also where we checked in. The staff were very professional, friendly and even showed us around Hongdae. Akira and Dan were very accommodating and friendly.
I would definitely come again and recommend both YaKorea and Kimchee to friends and family. Thank you everyone for showing us such a good time! We made memories we will never forget.
