Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This place was good for our short stay. The piping in the washroom was a mess and anything that went down the sink went on the floor. The staff were really nice.
I love this place! I slept in a mixed 8 dormitory. It was a pleasant stay. I had to share the bathroom with many people, but it wasn’t a hassle at all. It was pretty clean to me. I love the staffs and the manager, Pablo, even hanging out with Karen and Tim! They were all pretty amazing and friendly. My stay was super great because of them. I love that is super close to Hongdae and Sangsu station. Thank you so much, Chingu! Great price and super nice location!
