    I got great value for my money at this hotel. The room was clean and not old, with comfortable beds and linen provided. The location was convenient, just a 5-minute walk to the subway station and close to Changdeokgung palace. The staff was friendly and even printed out my train ticket for me.

    The breakfast could have been better, maybe with more variety or options.

    My favorite property in Seoul. Chilled-out base for traveling to Seoul and exploring local places. Queen room with a very comfortable bed and a kettle. Milk and eggs at breakfast. Convenient walk from a bus stop.

    The location of this place is excellent, just minutes away from a subway station and conveniently close to public transport, making it easy to visit popular parks and ancestral shrines nearby.

    The room at Hostel Korea-Ikseon was so cozy! It had a flat-screen TV and air conditioning, perfect for chilling after a long day of exploring Seoul. The private bathroom was a plus too, with a refreshing shower and free toiletries. The soundproof walls were great for a quiet night's sleep. And the private entrance made us feel like we had our own little space.

    Personally, I wasn't a fan of the balcony. I know some people enjoy it, but I prefer to stay indoors and relax in the comfy seating area.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hostel. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the subway station and close to the city center. The room was clean and spacious, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We loved the fully equipped kitchen on the second floor and enjoyed the free food they provided. Plus, the hostel was nestled away enough to be peaceful and quiet at night.

    The only downside was the small size of the room, but it was still comfortable and had enough space for our luggage.

    The room was spacious and had great amenities like climate control, multi-channel TV, and a fridge. Having a bathtub in the private bathroom was a nice bonus. The hotel's location near a bus stop was unbeatable.

    The room at Hostel Korea - Ikseon was cozy and comfortable, with soundproof walls that ensured a peaceful night's sleep. I loved having a private entrance to my triple room, it made me feel like I had my own little haven in Seoul. The air conditioning was a lifesaver during the hot summer days, keeping the room refreshingly cool. The flat-screen TV and electric kettle provided a nice touch of convenience to my stay. The seating area in the room was a great spot to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the city.

    Personally, I found the balcony in certain rooms to be a bit small, but I understand that some guests might still enjoy the outdoor space.
