    The bathroom was incredibly dirty. The showers, wall and shower curtain were covered in mold. Also the sink with a blow dryer is in the same room everyone sleeps in. You are bound to wake up when other guests get ready.

    It was cheap, the bed was soft and clean, great location.

    Somewhat expensive for a hostel.

    The hostel was super clean, the rooms nice and large, and the staff friendly. The western-style shower was especially nice. Location was convenient... very close to the beach!

    There were no curtains in the room. The room was super humid. The walls were so thin I could hear all the noise from all the floors so we had to sleep with eye mask and ear plugs and it wasn't enough so I bought masked tape and made a curtain from our clothes . There was mold in the toilet... There was not enough light in the room. The receptionist didn't even check if the room was ready, they didn't give the room card before the check in time which is 3 pm.

    We arrived about noon and tried to check in. in the message there was said “the check in is never possible before 3 PM” so didn’t expect anything. But the lady behind the desk pretended not to be there when I tried to talk to her. The same situation was at 2:57, when another guests tried to do the check in. We ended up waiting about 20 minutes in the check in queue. The room itself needs a lot of maintenance and better cleaning. The bathroom was mouldy and dirty. No cleaning was possible even though we stayed for a whole week. You can change the towels at the reception but that’s it. Absolutly no Wi-Fi in the room.

    The location is very close to the beach and main area! I have stayed in the hostel before and it was just as good as the first time I went there. Since I stayed in Korea for longer before the one highlight was definitely the comfortable beds even if I stayed in a 8 person room!

    Shared bathroom, people can enter when you re showering and there is no curtain, but it is normal in south korea, I understand it is a cultural shock you would face in many other properties.

    Bed is very comfortable and room is very quiet. Facilities have greater than expected quality and has everything you need. Location is awesome for those who love to take walk for sightseeing at the beach.

    the bathroom of our room was full of mould and smelled terrible! after i asked for another room, the staff seemed to be aware of the mould. we got another room which .... had a little bit less mould in the bathroom. We also recognized that the room we had first was just rent to the next guests without proper removal of the mould! we can just recommend to stay away from this hostel if your health has value to you!

    the rooms offered a lot of space

    the room in COMPLETELY different from the photos on here. All walls and ceiling are covered in stains from who knows what, somebody’s hair in the bed, almost no lights in the room at all(except for 1 standing light, one tiny light on the wall and the bed frame has some led in the back that doesn’t help). Right in front of window is a big building so window doesn’t help with lighting too. Bathroom was in a bad condition as well, all in stains. water wouldn’t go down the drain. The same with sink. And when you flush a toilet the lid of a tank in the back pops up in a weird way. Just in general the room is not white and polished like it looks on the pictures. Everything is very old and in bad condition. We didn’t stay there, left in an hour after check-in but still didn’t get any money back, because the hotel said it was impossible. They said they don’t do refund after check in. The girl working in lobby really tried to help us though, she was sweet.

    the girl working in the lobby is great, but that is the only good thing.

    In one night my room card didn't work and I had to sleep on the sofa in the lobby because at night there's no staff. Not even an emergency number. So I was not able to get into the dorm and slept on the couch. Even when I contacted them again they didn't find any solution like giving back the money for one night or anything. Not even an excuse! That's really disappointing.

    The beds were really comfortable and the dorm was also nice. In the kitchen was everything what you need for preparing something.

    The only issue was the common area was boring as no one talked to each other.

    Everything was so perfectly made for a traveller comfort and ease, the discount made it super affordable to stay.

    When we arrived to leave our luggage until check in time, we were greeted by a simple "no check in until 3 pm". After asking we could leave our stuff at an unattended space below the staircase for the day. The room itself was spacious, but otherwise horrible. No wifi in the room, only in the downstairs common area. The room was full of dust, the shower was moldy and one of the lights didn't work, so only half of the room was lit. The window couldn't be closed properly and apparently one of the outlets was broken, but was just taped shut with a warning sign. Additionally, there were exposed cables right above our heads which made us feel super safe. The bed and the pillows are covered with a plastic wrap underneath the actual cover so it feels like sleeping in an Ikea model bedroom - not very cosy. Otherwise, there is a full kitchen downstairs if you don't mind dirty cutlery and free umbrellas to borrow in case of rain. 4th time in South Korea now and have never been in a hostel this uncomfortable.

    Location was good
