Staff were very friendly and gave good advice Location: Really good, in the heart... More

I stayed at Backpackers Inside for three nights last month and thought it was great, particularly as I only paid about $12 p/n for my bed. I opted to stay in a six-person all-female dorm; the room consisted of three bunk beds and six lockers where you can store your valuable safely. Very clean and tidy, although a little on... More

My family and I (we consist of twp adults and four children aged between 14 -9 yrs old) enjoyed our first stay in a Korean guesthouse. It suit us perfectly - we stayed in a two bedroom unit with a kitchenette and living room connected. We could cook up simple meals and the place had a washing machine, such a... More

We stayed in both private 4 bed ensuite and basic 4 bed rooms. Booked from hostelworld. Location: Quite easy to find with thier map. Just remember to listen carefully on the airport bus. Walking distance to Hyehwa station about 10-15 min. One stop from Dongdaemun and a few stops from Myeongdong. It's next to a uni, so there's a lot... More

Went there March 6-12...owners Joe, Min and Brit are all sooo friendly and funny! Very accommodating and helpful. Our room's a double ensuit with our own ref, microwave, computer, washing machine, hairdryer, and stove. The rain shower is really nice, strong pressure. It's a bit far from the subway- around 10mins walk but it's really far when you're practically freezing... More

Reception was good and friendly, place was hard to find due to the internet map not being very good. Bed was just a bed base and you could feel the springs so didn't get any sleep. The toilet and shower was a tiny room, kinda like a broom closet size. On the good side we had our own computer in... More

The rooms are small but worked fine for us and at first it seemed small and potentialy noisy due to the thin walls but we where absolutely fine and would definately recomend it... More
