    Excellent location and convenient for solo travellers/travellers with only light luggage. They do allow you to store your luggage in the common area and have CCTV, but I wouldn't say it's very convenient accessing your items as the rooms are very small, so you have to opem your suitcase in the hallway if it's big.

    This hostel is placed in a great area, between Namsan Tower and Myeongdong, close to bus stops and metro station. Rooms are big enough, beds really comfortable. The staff is helpful so you can ask them whatever you need. You need to have a reservation prior to arrival so make sure you book this specific place as there are few other locations in Seoul/Incheon with the exact same name :D

    The actual room where the pods are, are quite small which means if you have larger luggage you can’t keep it with you. The USB plugs in my pod did not work which caused issues when charging, the host was very good to help address this and gave me adapters.

    The location of this hostel was the selling point it is very central so easy to get everywhere. Travelling by myself, it was quite social so I was able to meet other travellers.

    At third floor without elevator it’s too hard and heavy to take the luggage up and down stairs.

    Location of the hostel is really good.

    there was no ventilation in the rooms which resulted in them being very stuffy/stinky and hot even with the aircon. only two showers were working. staff was very loud in the morning. overall people who were staying in weren’t respecting the rules (loud talking, music, etc) it’s on third floor, if you have lots of luggage it’s light not be ideal

    amazing location! comfy beds

    Wifi almost doesn’t work from the capsule rooms or rooftop. When you sit in the common area, it works normal. Internet speed was not that good either.

    Location is great! Staff were really nice. It was also really clean. Only when many people use the bathrooms, not that clean anymore

    - problem with shower cabins - they are often used and therefore it is difficult to ensure perfect cleanliness

    - if you arrive earlier, you can leave your luggage and come back later - large, nice bathroom (dryers, shampoos, towels) - breakfast available - toast, drinks, eggs - very good location - close to the park, Nasam Tower and the main station - easy self check-in - very efficient contact via booking.com

    Good, but with room to improve

    Rooms are rather small and so are the lockers - the only space to leave larger suitcases or backpacks is in the common areas. The light in the room is on 24/7, which is bothersome despite the privacy curtains. The door to my room was held open using a fire extinguisher, so I woke up to people passing through the common area late night. Bathrooms are very tiny - a person using the sink will have to give way to another using the toilet or showers.

    Great location - close to the market streets, yet quiet at night. Comfortable beds. The pods in the dorms are set up quite nicely (with power outlets and a little shelf). Common area is cozy and comfy. Friendly staff. Clean facilities.

    The bathroom is too small, movement is restricted when everything is cramped into a small room

    The location is near to Myeongdong, 5 min walk to underground. Myeongdong is just across underground station.

    Small common area. Staff is not the friendliest or most considerate (cleaning staff will talk loudly on the phone in the bed room, disturbing guests).

    Great facilities - nice shower room and rest room, nice common area. Free (modest) breakfast! Central location. Nice rooftop. Location is super central!

    Top notch location right in a street full of small, picturesque restaurants. Nice, standard capsule hotel/ hostel. They have a common room and offer food and drinks, so it's up to you whether you want to socialise or not. Good value for the money!

    The strictness about where you can and can't drink. I had a tickly cough, so I was often having to run out of the room to get a drink.

    The best part for me was that the staff were very accommodating and helpful. It's a great value for money.

    Not the cleanest, and barely any space for luggage within the rooms/lockers. Had some issues with check-in that I managed to sort once I figured out who was working there.

    Great location with beautiful views of the sky tower from the street. There's also a little cafe nearby that sells coffee and the most delicious tiramisu I've ever had - went there about 5 times. Hostel was good, quite busy, but nice private pods and comfortable beds. Breakfast was good and simple, pretty standard for korean hostels.
