Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The location was really great because it was close to the subway (straight forward to use as only one line and cheap) and the fast train to Seoul. Thete were plenty of nice coffee shops and restaurants close by for dinner. The breakfast was limited, but fine and great value to he included in the room charge. The service from the front staff was marvellous, friendly and helpful - Baek, Joo and Jo Young Jnr. The rooms were very modern and great bathroom. Everything great.
