    Everything is pretty old and falling apart but thats not a problem. When I saw the bed though, I nearly left again, couldnt wait to go somewhere else. The bedding was definitely not washed and had lots of crumbs, hair and what I believe was old skin or something. Just disgusting, good thing I had a pillowcase and my small blanky with me.

    Good location, easy check in, towels and shampoo

    The attitude of the owner. We arrived around 12pm and called the owner. Normally, check-in in Korean hotels is at 3pm. So I asked on the phone if it's ok that we drop our things and come back at 3pm. He said yes. So at 3pm we check-in into our room. No wardrobe and no ac as stated in the description of the property. We ask about it the owner. Instead of trying to accommodate us, he orders us to get out of the room right away coz we 'violated the rules of the hostel' since the check-in is at 4pm in this place and 'we are not suitable for this hostel' .But he himself told on the phone that's ok for us to come at 3pm! So a short squabble started, I requested to refund money, then he said 'ok, you can stay or you can go'. We stayed. It's not important we use ac or not. If it's written in the description of the room, it should be there.

    The location - not touristy, all-Korean area with everything you need just few meters away.

    It was freezing cold at night in the room. We asked the staff for extra blanket but didn’t get it (even though they said they’ll bring it). I cannot say the room was actually clean because we found plenty of hair everywhere

    I liked the location and the prices. It is also nice that they provide water dispenser in the corridor.

    a fair deal for backpack-style stay
    • Business trip

    • Economy Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The place is hard to find. It is the 3rd floor of a very old small house. There is no real reception desk, and better make sure the owner is there when you come. The hallway is disorganized and bears every testimony to the delapidated shape of the building - so (I hope!) you will be very relieved when you open your room door...

    The owner is friendly and rooms seem recently refurbished and clean (unlike what it looks from outside!). All basic facilities are there. For this price it is surely ok, especially for young people and short-term backpack-style stay, it is a lively area near Seoul Nat'l University with many small restaurants.

    Everything! Dont go there!

    Nothing. It was the worst place i ever slept in. Tape on the doors. All the rooms had easy door code. The smelled so bad of toilet cleaner and i barely breath. The blanket and bed linnet was had a pee smell. I booked another place in the same evening. Wondering why it is possible to rent this place on this homepage. Its okay its not the best, since it was cheap. But at least you have the rights to have a nice sleep

    Nothing to like about this place at all.

    There was nothing to like about this property, difficult to find and when I phoned to ask for directions, the phone was answered and hung up . Poor customer service .When we eventually found it there was no air conditioning in the room as advertised just a fan . This is false advertising and when I queried it I was told it was cool season and that they were changing from air conditioning to fans , this is very strange as it is just about coming into the hot season. The place was very tired looking and the stairway was filthy , does not look like any cleaning is done at all. No kichen just a Ho water and a microwave, no cups so could not make a coffee in the morning, you really have to be desperate to stay here.

    It's called the '1975' Yurim Inn because that's the last time it was decorated or cleaned!! Filthy entrance lobby covered in dust, carpets worn through to the backing, bits hanging off the wall, etc. The room was more basic than I could possibly have imagined, again with bits coming away from the wall, hair on the bed, no attempt at decoration or even a nice picture just to cheer it up a bit!. The bathroom fittings were covered in whatever it is bathroom fittings get covered in, although the shower did at least work and the place was underfloor heated (visit was early March). Not staffed, so nobody to complain to. You couldn't pay me enough to stay there again!

    It wasn't far from the station. The shower was warm, and the room was heated. That's pretty much it!

    The common area is not maintained properly. The toilet door is little bit problematic.

    The location was very convenient and near the metro station. There are many good affordable food options nearby. The room was manageable with good floor heating. The bedding and room were clean.
