Laundry washer/dryer 1k won each. Breakfast coffee and juice and toast/jam. Water dispenser and bottle water. Hostel very clean. Great location near Bus terminal and bus stop, surrounded by great restaurants.

가성비 생각하면 이만한 숙소 찾을수가 없어요. 가격도 굉장히 저렴한데 숙소도 깔끔하고 먹진 않았지만 간단한 조식도 제공이되요. 버스 터미널도 가까워요. 다만 와이파이같은 경우 개선이 필요할 것 같네요. 특히 사람들이 입실한 이후에는 와이파이가 심각할 정도로 느려져요.

Tutto perfetto. Stanza pulitissima, personale gentile, struttura nuova, attenti ad ogni dettaglio. Se dovessi trovare un difetto è la tenda che non oscura bene dalla luce. Consigliato!
