    The property needs a renovation. The mattresses are uncomfortable to sleep on unless you like hard mattresses.

    The location is exceptional.

    Bathroom is super small. Shower and sink faucet uses 1 line so if someone leaves it in shower mode and you only wanted to use the sink, expect a surprise! There's no space to put your toiletries and clothes. Tissue will definitely get wet. Toilet seat and Towel rack were put there but it is broken.

    Great location as it is in the middle of Myeongdong. Cleanliness was okay also. There's free coffee and water in the kitchenette area in 3rd and 4th floor. Pricewise it is good value. However, I wouldn't stay longer than 1 night.

    The only downside was that the place is quite tiny with toilet being small as well. Space did not allow 2 singles to open our luggages fully at the same time. But it has all the amenities you need. So if you’re not fussy on space, this would be a great space! :) Great cozy stay overall.

    The stay at Myeongdong K-pop Residence was great! There was floor heating, the beds were warm, location was great! The overall stay was cosy & great. Location of stay was in a small alley, just a corner away from myeongdong’s main food street.

    The room was very small especially if you bring 2 suitcases like me, but still you can manage to make it work. For solo traveler they provided only face towels so make sure to bring some big ones with you. There is a hair dryer, the small one for traveling, so it takes a little bit time to dry your hair, so if you prefer otherwise you can bring your own. I used it and still it worked ok for me. I also asked them to change the sheets, and the staff was accommodating in that too.

    The staff is nice and accommodating. They allowed me to check out at 5 pm, right in time for my flight. The first night it was cold in the room, so the next day they brought me a heater. I didn’t feel any more cold in the upcoming nights. The location was great, you could arrive to anywhere in town very easily and plenty of options in Myeongdong as well.

    1. the room is extremely small and squeeze, you have no space to open the luggage. 2. my room toilet was extremely cold at the night, couldn’t even take a shower. 3. one of bed became super hot and you couldn’t even lye down and sleep in the middle of night. I had to switch off the heater but then the whole room would become cold.

    location is excellent, just within Myeongdong market, convenient for transportation and food. the staff is friendly.

    the room is too narrow and small for one person. but it is okay consider the price.

    The location is perfect and easy to find. the staff is really helpful especially with the check in process. He speaks English and we communicate well. I was late for check in and dropped my luggage first coz it was not check in time. Later, they sent me information through email about my check in. thank you!

    Very little noise insulation in the hostel - I could hear every time the elevator was called, someone used the microwave, or flushed their toilet. Also, my room was showing signs of wear and tear - the hinges on the toilet lid were broken and the bathroom door didn't shut quite right.

    The location is convenient once you can find the hostel. It would be helpful to list more detailed directions in the listing or a better map - I ended up having to ask the concierge at a nearby hotel for assistance, and he was also puzzled until he pulled up the address on his own map. The staff were also accommodating of my late arrival time, which was helpful.

    the ceiling is quite Low for the bunk bed. i hit my head on the ceiling and I’m a midget. the towel rack in the toilet broke when we hung a towel on it. It takes a long time for the shower to turn hot, almost 2 minutes of running water.

    Central, lots of food and shopping around, staff are friendly, there are shared amenities available - like a washing machine and kitchen.
