The hostel is very welcoming and has offered snacks as small gifts upon check in and check out. There is complimentary breakfast everyday (toast and tea or coffee) which is heartening. They also offer laundry service at affordable fee per basket which is great, no need being too much luggage.
Would like to commend a staff named çŸæïŒvery helpful and friendly to tourists.
Room is a little small for 2 people but manageable. Overall is great and would consider staying again. (:
I enjoyed my stay at OYO hostel Myeongdong 1. I will most definitely return and get a private room. Having a private room made a big difference and I was able to get a good nightâs sleep. It was a bit dated but still you get good value for your money in Seoul. It was also a quiet and safe place. I will recommend this property and several other OYOs in Seoul.
Location is the best. Right in the middle of myeongdong and 6 mins walk to bus and train.
Food and shopping right downstairs.
Rooms are small. Bathroom is toilet and shower in one. So if you need more space, may not be the best option for you.
Travelled as a couple and we could navigate two large pieces with a carry on in the room i.e. take what you need and keep them closed to make space.
Also, the rooms have heated floors and was very nice and comfortable in winter.
Also, they have laundry services too.
When we arrived the receptions ware was in a big mess. They were cleaning the AC and it was not really pleasant. The lady at the reception was kind and helpful. But we had to wait till check in time which was at 3:00pm
Itâs actually really near myeongdong station that has escalator excess. Plus just a turn in from the main shopping street in myeongdong. Do not trust google map to find it, use kakao or Naver map instead! Itâs right above a bbq restaurant but no smell (in winter). Have to climb a small flight of stairs to excess the lift to the main floor though.
