the location was east find and there were a lot of places where you can dine. the room was basic and worth it to the price. although the ff are my comments: 1. suggest to have a more comfortable pillow as it is to thin, it would have been better if they provided 2 2. the towels are small, you can only use it once. however, they have provided towels for replacement near the elevator. 3. the bathroom has black molds on it, i think it was not properly/ thoroughly cleaned. 4. it would have been better to at least provide an english channel or at least subtitles for the korean networks.

The hostel is very close to the metro stations. Plenty of resyairants around the hostel. The male reception staff was very helpful in giving guidance to every destination I asked. He even printed out the information of the Namta show and direction to the Nanta theatre for me. Thanks a lot for his kindness. However the breakfast is very basic for the price we paid.

The staff was warm and friendly! They helped us out with everything that we needed. The amenities were okay, nothing great but enough for our stay. The location was one of the best attractions of this place. Restaurants surrounded the area and it was near many areas we wanted to visit. Would stay again!

Overall experience was OK. Just minor glitches like warm water pressure wasn't consistent (low pressure and cold water in between showering in the morning), missing air-con remote control (couldn't get the assistance because I went out early before they started working and I came back late and they were off duty). Last day, the TV in the room is not working, not sure why.

Convenient location!
The GH is close to all places known to foreign tourists; Insadong, Gyeongbuk Palace, Gwanghwamun, Deoksu Palace, City Hall, Cheongyecheon, Myeongdong, Namdaemun, Dongdaemun and even Namsan Tower! Trust me I arrived just at check in time and finished toured all mentioned places in one afternoon. Nearest stations are Jonggak and Euljiro 3-ga! Staffs were great, helpful and friendly! They hv everything but be prepared, rooms are very small! it's normal in Seoul so book a room that fits ur luggage, I booked bunk bed room and barely could fit 2 medium sized carriers. Everything was enough for us and would recommend anyone to stay here!

Great value for money in a fantasitc location
A fantastic place to stay. The staff were excellent, and very helpful. The breakfast was adequate. Unfortunately the bed was a bit hard for my liking. The nightlife was a bit noisy if you were looking to get to bed early, but not enough to stop you from getting a good night sleep. The location was unbeatable, and great value for money. I would return.

You Get What You Pay For
For the price this hostel is a convenient walk from many tourist attractions and offers a clean environment. Breakfast is simply toast and milk, but it's enough to tide you over until you head out to explore Seoul and it's numerous coffee shops. One note, the building does have it's creaks and sounds so if you are extra sensitive to noise at night, you may want to find a newer, quieter building.

Suitable for backpackers or budget travellers
It's a good place if you only need a place to sleep so for backpackers and young people I believe it's great. However, compared to love motels I wouldn't call it 'comfortable' (I lived and worked in Korea for a few years when I was younger and stayed at many love motels, I also lived in a tiny office-tel for my first job); I stayed in a single room and I only slept well when I was drunk (as the bed was very uncomfortable and hard). The room also wasn't that well ventilated but it was quiet (which is remarkable considering the location). I wouldn't recommend this place if you have loads of luggage or are a couple/have children (I travel light). The room does however have good wi-fi, a TV, air-conditioning and an adequate bathroom (but no separate shower space, this however isn't unusual in north-east Asian hotel rooms from my experience). There's also free toast and coffee from 8am-10am (or there's Holly's Coffee, Subway, Burger King, KFC, McDonald's, Taco Bell and lots of other places downstairs along with a GS25 convenience store). It's also very close to Jonggak (exit 12 is very close) and Jongno 3 ga subway stations on line 1. The 6002 bus from Incheon Airport also stops nearby. The Nami Island tour bus and Seoul tourist bus stop are also close. Overall, like I say it's a good place for budget or younger travellers (or if you're teaching English in the Korean countryside, it's a good place to just sleep on Friday/Saturday nights).

Not for an elderly traveler
Very clean and convenient place. However, I would not describe it as comfortable. My problem, I'm sure. But I'm too old to sleep on on inch pads on a wooden surface, and to sit on the floor, which is the only option if you want some privacy. For a young backpacker, its a great place. But if you're retired and traveling the world, spend a little more and save your back. However, the staff went out of their way to help me find and visit a clinic, and get the medicine I needed. That was a huge plus!

Nutta, Thailand

Details is here.
There are good and bad at the same time. Good 1. Location, the guesthouse located close to the subway. 2. I stayed in a single room with shower so it was convenient for me to take a shower. 3. There is G25 shop under the guesthouse you can go anytime when you are hungry. Bad 1.The wall of the room is so thin, I can hear everything the next room was doing and sometimes it was so loud. One night I needed to knock their door and asked them to keep their voice low (I couldn't get some sleep) at 1.30 am. there was no staff there to handle. 2. Breakfast I would say NOT GOOD NOT BAD because I didn't have breakfast I have no idea how it looks like. 3. The towel, they give you the small one (for face) and there is NO big one. Then after taking a shower you suppose to use that small one instead. 4. There is NO free water.
