불친절하고 숙소 그릇에서 머리카락 나옴, 더럽다.. 太脏了，而且服务最差。 这个宿舍真不好， 比如态度， 清洁 还有等等。 不推荐!!! 宁可去朋友的很小家，也不去这个宿舍。 외국사람이니 모른다고 나에게 이해는 요구하면서 불친절하고 비아냥대는 태도에 대해서 전혀 사과는 안함 . 그리고 김치게스트하우스 최악이라는 후기에 여기 호스텔 예약한건데 김치랑 여기랑 같은 것임.

So far from the station. They have no elevator and i stayed at 4th floor. Their pillows are so thin and small. I can't sleep with it. But can go to the convenience shop at the corner. The bathroom looks too old ,and the room's smell was so bad. And the last one the room is not soundproof. So I can hear the room next to me talked and laughed all night.

후회 많이 했어요

침구 상태 지저분, 수건 상태 좋지 않음, 화장실에 곰팡이도 있고 하룻밤 자는데 정말 별로였어요 숙박업을 하면 침구랑 수건은 깨끗하게 세탁해야 하지 않나요. 저녁에 후덥지근했는데 에어컨상태도 좋지 않았고요. 정말 후회 많이 했습니다

安さと立地を重視して選びましたが、写真のイメージと大きく異なっており、高いお金を払ってでも別のホテルを選べばよかったと思いました。タオルは臭いし蚊は出るし出入りする人の声が響いて夜中何度か起きました。

다시 이용할 예정입니다.^^*

친구와 함께 이용했는데 저희방에 전용화장실과 전용 씽크대가 있어서 너무 편했습니다. 화장실에는 샴프와 바디워시 화장지가 구비되어 있습니다. 수건은 1층 출입구 쪽에 얼마든지 사용가능하도록 비치해 두었습니다. 방안에 침대도 두개, 티비, 드라이기도 구비되어 있습니다. 주방에 음식 요리도 가능하도록 조리도구와 냄비와 그릇들도 구비되어 있어서 혹시나 친구들과 요리해 드시기 편리합니다. 저희는 사용하지 않았지만요. 방도 온도조절 가능하도록 되어 있어 따뜻하게 잘수 있어요. 날씨가 더워 보일러는 틀지 않았습니다.

위치가 최고였어요

친절한 안내 덕분에 만족스러운 숙박이었습니다. 침대도 편안하고 공간도 넓어서 매우 편안했어요. 제일 좋았던 건 위치가 정말정말 좋아서 관광하기가 편했다는 것이었습니다! 하지만 청결을 중요하게 생각하는 분들은 신중하셨음 좋겠습니다. 창틀에 낀 먼지와 방충망 없는 창은 좀 당황스러웠어요ㅠㅠ

部屋に案内されベットに使い終わったコンタクトや、服のタグが散らばってあり掃除はされてなかったです。我慢できず、すぐチェックアウトして違う場所に宿泊しました。

家族で利用しました。

受付の場所が分かりにくかった。 受付のお兄さんはいろいろと教えてくれて、助かった。 夜中遊んで帰ってくる人の話し声が廊下に響いて気になった。 お風呂はトイレは値段なりです。 安く泊まれたので総合的に良かったです。

駅から数分

近くの別のゲストハウスで、早く到着してしまいましたが、チェックインさせていただきました。 お部屋は4Fだったのですが、スタッフの方がキャリーを持ってくださいました。 タオルはゲストハウスの入り口に1日ごとに置かれて、自分達で持っていく仕組みになっていました。バスタオルより小さい大きさですが、バスタオルとして使用できる大きさだと思います。 シャワーとトイレは決して綺麗とは言えないです。シャワーとトイレの仕切りはなく、トイレと床は濡れます。タオルをかけるところに着替えを置くことをお勧めします。 シャワーは少し待たないとお湯が出てこないです。 トイレは詰まりやすく、ラバーカップが常備されていました。私達も一度詰まらせました。 キッチンは広く、清潔感があり、お皿とグラスは人数分ありました。鍋やフライパン、IH、電子レンジもあったので、料理もできるかと思います。 イスは4つしかないので、私達は一人キャリーに座って生活していました。友達同士だったので、それもまた面白かったです。 全身鏡はなく、不便に感じました。 コンセントは多くあったと思います。 ティッシュペーパーが無かったので、買うか、持って行った方がいいかと思います。 深夜は別の部屋の宿泊者の声が響く日もありました。 外出時も常に自分で鍵を管理する形で、時間が決められているわけではないので、良かったです。 近くにマートとコンビニがあってとても便利でした。 友人とワイワイ泊まるには安くてとても良かったですが、私達にはお風呂がかなり引っかかる点でした。でも自由に過ごさせていただけたので、後悔はないです。

沒有電梯真的很可惜，房間內有點味道，但空間算是不錯~如果很潔癖的人就不推了！但是想省錢的話蠻推的，因為附近也很多好逛的，還有商店可以方便買東西~

Not for me

Staff was really nice and helpful. BUT the bed was disgustingly dirty, so much so that I literally slept on the floor. The flush on the toilet was broken. If it wasn't for those issues the hotel would be super lovely, but I just can't with the bedding.

Amazing Stay, Amazing Friends

My girlfriend and I stayed at the YaKorea hostel in Hongdae during our first visit to Seoul in June 2018. We found out when we got there that the amenities are shared with the nearby Kimchee Sinchon Guesthouse, which was also where we checked in. The staff were very professional, friendly and even showed us around Hongdae. Akira and Dan were very accommodating and friendly. I would definitely come again and recommend both YaKorea and Kimchee to friends and family. Thank you everyone for showing us such a good time! We made memories we will never forget.
