OYO Hostel Myeongdong5

I liked the ambiance of the place, the common areas, the proximity of the place to train stations/bus stations and as well as the shopping district. The staffs are very accomodating and helpful too!

No elevator, we had elders/seniors with us but they still managed to go up :)

Bed is good, good light breakfast, very good location, jusg a 5 mins walk to myeongdong station. Cozy sharing area, good wifi.

The drain smells of the toilet is horrible, however you get nice hot shower, strong water and clean bathroom.

Good location, good light breakfast, good wifi and nice bed, nice shower.

Strong drain smells from the toilet.

Nice ambiance and got free breakfast

Just smell something weird

Very near to Myeongdong Station, though a little bit uphill. Room was clean.Easy check-in.Friendly staff.

More local selection for breakfast would be nice.

Friendly staff with fluent English, nice location and clean. Worth to visit.

Location of the hotel is great.

We didn't expect the private bathroom is actually outside of our hotel room. The hotel should mention clearly on this point. And also, there is a shared communication room right outside of our hotel room which makes us feel uncomfortable. And the bathroom room had to close door with no fresh air circulation and can smell bad. In general, the hotel is dirty and can find bugs easily. Additionally, the hotel should mention no lift is available to go to the higher floor of our room. Breakfast is simple with no latte nor Cappuccino and also sometimes we would like to start early but will need to wait till 8am for the breakfast. And we didn't expect we need to wash our dishes after breakfast. The hotel should mention all these rules for customers so that we can aware this.

It’s located like three minutes from a train station, clean, with really nice showers. The beds are comfortable and the mattress is super thick! I really liked it. Came back twice!!

Maybe just that the two rooms on the first floor have to go through the lounge area after shower every time, but not that big of a deal.

Quiet and very accesible

The bed is a bit too hard

I like how clean and well-maintained the rooms and common areas are. The rooftop area with a view of the Namsan tower has that K-drama charm to it! It's also a short walk to the subway and bus station. It's just right across Myeongdong's bustling shopping streets. So overall, I would really recommend this place.

It’s cozy and is very well located. So close to the subway and in a calm spot but only few minutes away from the touristy streets of Myeongdong. The staff are very friendly and nice. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable.

There is no elevator.

Location is nearby the subway and bus station of myeongdong. Also it is nearby the shopping street and night market of myeongdong. There are a lot of restaurants, convenience store and marts nearby. There is also a global ATM almost beside of the hostel. The breakfast is simple but decent. If I will be going back to seoul, I might booked again here. Staffs are also accommodating.

It was close to a busy area and walking distance to interesting places to visit, close to subway and easier to get the bus to/from airport.

There was a construction going on in the female washroom during the day. Its unserviceable. The area where the female washroom/toilet is close to the main entrance and you have to walk across the receiving area holding your stuff in order to use the service.

The bed is okay, there’s a balcony which you can use

There’s no elevator, we got stuck in the fourth floor, in the must stinky room in the world. There’s a burst of sewage small coming from the street when you open the windows. The AC didn’t work. The bathroom is separated from the room.

A great location, nearby all the shops and cafes. I stayed in all female dorms and it was spacious.

I wish the dorm has a mirror inside and a shelf to put my things, though they did have foldable shelf but it was too low to be left unfold when sleeping. Others are correct about the smell in the property esp in bathroom but if you can bypass the smell then you’ll be okay.

Close to everything, easy access to shopping and subway station.

I requested a lower bunk bed since I booked 2.5 months before my trip, I was told that it might be possible but depending on the availability on the day of my arrival.On the day of check-in, I again reminded them of my request and I was told that it would not be possible, It had already been booked for someone else a few days ago, I had to remind them that I booked for 2.5 months and was specific with my request and yet they cannot accommodate my request. The supposed booked guest did not show up until after 2 days, below bunk bed has been vacant, so disappointed for not being so accommodating. It's hard for me to be up and down due to my lower back injury and the steps were slippery as well, I almost fell down.

the location and the breakfast. also the bed was nice.

the toilets ARE THE WORST experience I ever had. I honestly almost cried every night to take shower there because smells like the worst and it is quite dirty bathroom. There is not enough for all of the girls and it is super super disgusting. You can smell how bad the toilet is from the lounge, imagine taking shower there. Honestly the worst toilet experience of my life

Near in Myeondong Station just a 5-7 minutes walk and near in tourist attraction.

It’s clean and the staff are nice

I really recommend here, in the center!! Wake only 2 minutes from subway, but if you have so many luggage with you. You should use bus to hotel more than subway. Everything is good.

Location was very convenient. Direct limousine bus from the airport and 5mns walk slightly uphill.

The bathroom were not great. Bad smell and always damp.
