Ulasan 123 Hostel

the location is very good and so convinence to take bus/metro. i can go to myeongdong enjoy the night life every night easily. the room is clean and easy to check in. the room is simple and provide basic equipments. rooftop can see seoul tower view and dont miss it!

The stay was great overall. However, sometimes when I shower at midnight there was no hot water, so I need to shower with cold water🥲. And my bathroom light was broken as well. The general service was okay, the person at the front desk was nice as well. But when I try to contact them before my travel I can’t get to them even in their service hours… Overall, it was a good stay beside the things mentioned above.

Disappointing Experience with Poor Flexibility I stayed at 123 Hostel, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. During my trip to several cities in South Korea, I had to adjust my schedule due to a flight change by the airline. All the other hostels I stayed at were understanding and approved free cancellations without any issues—except for this one. I only requested to shorten my stay by one night, but this hostel refused to approve it even after three attempts. Trip.com also tried to explain on my behalf, but they still rejected the request. It’s ironic and truly disheartening. I hope in the future, the management will be more understanding in such situations. There are circumstances beyond our control, and it would be better to have a more flexible policy, such as partial cancellations with a reasonable fee, rather than outright rejections. As for the room itself, it was okay for a solo traveler. However, amenities are not included and must be purchased downstairs. Another issue is that the elevator only operates from the second floor, so you have to climb stairs to reach it. On top of that, the bathroom water often leaked out, leaving the room flooded. This definitely needs improvement. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend staying here unless they make significant changes to their policies and facilities.

The noise at night were really loud. We stayed for 3 nights in total and after the first night we requested to change room, the staff said since the rooms were fully booked so that we could not change our room on the second night. We accepted and they change the room for us on the third night, however the shower noise of the room next to us was too loud too. Beside that, the location is good but not great. It located on a slope so that we had to climb up with our luggage, very tired. Their is no bathtub in the bathroom, the shower place is very small. At other hotels I got a plug adapter for free but this hotel required us to buy the adapter for 5k won. The only good poin of this hotel is that the staff were really friendly and can speak English and Japanese. Overall I DO NOT recommend this hostel to anyone.

We were pleasantly surprised with how clean this hostel was. It was in a fantastic location and the amenities were great. The staff were helpful too. There was a printer (we were charged 500 won per sheet). They have a washing machine but after washing, there was a damp smell to the clothes. The tumble dryer was not very effective either (even after 3 hours, the clothes were still damp and had a smell and we didn’t overload the machine). I’d recommend this hostel to anyone who wants to be near Myeongdong which is a fantastic place for shopping.

The bed is not the most comfortable and the sink is quite small but considering it’s a hostel for a lower price, it’s pretty decent

Staff is friendly, spoke English. Rooms clean. Walls are thin. Curtains let in a lot of light.

Supper friendly, the host can speak english and Indonesia, super helpful, I can early check in. Super strategic location to myeongdong street or station.. near of that there is mart with a low price snack hehehe... Thank you.

Location is convenient. Just a few minutes walk from Myeong Dong station exit 3. But when I walk in to the lobby there’s a very stinky smell until the room. Besides from the hygiene, the TV has Netflix and YouTube to watch which you will not feel bored.

Location is excellent very close to the Myeongdong Station!

The hotel is very close to Myeongdong station. It is very easy to find. It's good that you can check in by yourself anytime after you get the information from the hotel. The room is quite good and clean. The only thing which is not good is that you can hear people all around your room you can hear the noise from outside the room and room beside you. But as I only stay 1 night so it's ok.

Convenient location and good quality/price ratio.

Good services

nice！
