"Very easy checkin and checkout in the centre of a great location in Jongno - accessible to great public transport, restaurants and places to see and visit. I highly recommend this place for its location. Our room was a good size for 5 night stay. Unfortunately we were only given hand towels for most of our stay for showers and bath mats - which we could get more of if we needed to. We got bath towels for 2 of our 5 nights but didn’t know why we didn’t get these the whole stay"

"The is an entirely selve serve micro hotel. There is no staff. If you cannot figure out the check in system you are not getting a room. The room I got was smaller than the picture shown. It was literally the smallest room that could fit a bed. The was no floor left to open my suitecase. It was like living in one of those tile puzzles with 15 tiles in 16 spaces. There was no shower separate from the sink toilet area. You just hosed yourself off in front of the sink and toilet. Don’t get the...

"I had the best stay at Hostel Tommy - it is literally seconds away from Ikseon-dong Hanok Village (one of the coolest places as a visitor) and a 3-min walk from Jongno 3(sam)-ga Station, making it super convenient and accessible. There is a 7-eleven right next to the hostel which is such a plus. The vibe was so homey and cozy, I felt incredibly safe and taken care of as a female solo traveller. The room was so comfortable too, I almost did not want to leave my room, haha! A huge shoutout to the...

10/10 Excellent
"This was the first time I ever experienced a 5-star hotel and I must say it was pretty amazing. I’m still sore over being charged an extra $1050 just to add my wife as a second guest. The hotel said it was all Expedia that did not work it out with me. I’m still digging up the original booking."
