It is at the central of everything, few steps to the night market, location is very good even though we had problem looking for it when we just arrived. Room is very small but clean and tidy. Breakfast is acceptable . Even we stay near to the lobby, room is sound proof, we didn’t hear anything in the morning. Extra point there is a weighing scale to weight your luggage.

The building look old and there is urine smell while waiting for lift at the 1st floor, that becos the toilet is just beside the lift. The curtain in the room is not blackout, it gets very bright in the morning. The toilet get very wet after a shower as it was a small space. Only 2 hangers are provided to hang clothes and only a wall hock without a cabinet

Great location in the heart of Myeongdong; Room is small, but comfy; Staff is friendly and helpful, speaks decent English; Everything is clean; Kitchen in lobby is quite good, you can prepare something easy for yourself; Free still water;

Desk is not 24/7, you have to warn staff in advance when you arrive; Breakfast is quite poor; Bathroom is small and has no a dedicated place to shower; There is no wardrobe in the room; Rooms are not sound-proofed; You always have to keep an air conditioning on to keep a room warm enough;

Prime location at Myeongdong, you pay a little less for smaller room, windows can be opened for outside air, near metro and airport k-bus service, night market is a block away. Slow closing door mechanism installed, so you don't hear your neighbors door slamming. Free water dispenser and mini washers on each floor. Free breakfast with both Korean and Western served, Nice view from selected room and the room I stayed was pretty quiet the whole time. Don't forget to bring $20k KRW cash deposit when check in.

Some hallway flooring was uneven but you will get used it after awhile. Weak bathroom fan, and only one room key card was provided.

Absolutely love the location of 57 Myeongdong Hostel. It was so easy to go to different spots from the hostel and there were loads of good food around. Highly recommend Jangsu Galbi which is just across the hostel and Myeongdong Kyo Ja which is around 7mins walk from the hostel. We also enjoyed their breakfast options and is definitelt worth adding to your booking. They were simple but hearty 😊 The staff were very helpful and accommodating too. One thing to note is that the standards rooms only have frosted glass as walls for the bathroom, so it's not really ideal if you're sharing with friends. I'd probably go for the deluxe room on our next stay since I was told that those have proper walls for the bathroom. Aside from the frosted glass bathroom walls, the rooms were quite comfortable. There are luggage spaces below the beds which really helped make the room more comfortable. Slippers, toiletries, and towels are provided too. Overall, great experience and will definitely stay here again. P.S. don't miss out on the rooftop! Pretty amazing view of Namsan tower and the busy streets of Myeongdong. 💜

- The staffs are very helpful. - The room is clean. The common area is clean. The laundry machine is free to use. - There is not much option for the breakfast. But it's delicious. - The bed is so comfy. - The room and bathroom is small but it's ok. Love the standard towel that they provide. I don't like small towel that Korean people use.

The location is close to the subway line 4 and line 2 but there is no elevator and escalator at the exit 5 which is close to the hostel. So you have to take exit 6 or 7 (sorry I can't remember) for taking the escalator with your luggage. Or else, you should take exit 1 because this is the only exit that has elevator from the track floor up to the ground. There is no airport bus at Myeongdong. They suspends the service because Covid-19. So I think the location is good when traveling around but it might make you tired when traveling with luggage. Hope the airport bus service at Myeongdong be available soon.

The hostel is very fast in responding to my request when I booked the hotel. The staff topped up the juices during breakfast. Food during breakfast is irrelevant as I brought my own (I'm a Muslim). The receptionists are always ready to answer my queries. Location is perfect. Room is what I paid for albeit small, it's just nice. I guess this hostel has tried to solve all the negative comments before. I anticipated issues mentioned in the reviews but didn't encounter any of those during my stay.. yeayyy!!!!

Nothing, Out of the three accommodations i stayed at in Korea, during my 12 days visit, location-wise, conveniency, easy check in, I'd choose this hostel again, plus, it offers 15% off for your next stay... Keep improving

Location is great. Near to subway and near to funicular to nseoul tower too!

The lift. Lift is slow and only one lift can go to the lobby. Not a problem unless u are in rush to go to the airport during ur check out 😆

This is my first time staying in this hostel. Location is excellent; near to the Myeongdong station exit 5 and also close to the main road so it is easy to get a taxi too. I got the deluxe twin room. It is big enough for a solo traveller. What sold me was the beautiful city view from my room. Heating is good during this winter season. It has the basic necessities including a small fridge, a nice tv and hair dryer. Staff at the counter is nice and accomodating as I arrived late at night during check in. I would stay here again when I come to Seoul in the future.

the location are really good - train station, night market, shop and resturant, the location is so convenient that you can shop and than back to hostel to rest and continue to shop again. room is comfortable but the bed guess is time to change the mattress as we can feel the spring (this is not the first time we stayed in 57 myeongdong hostel it is really a good place to stay), i like the thoughts of having a small washing machine for traveler to use which is very thoughtful. breakfast is simple but good enough to kick start the day.

i like everything. thumps up to the staff keeping the place clean and comfortable, they are always very friendly and helpful there is nothing that i didn't like.

The people working there, the receptionist to be specific was so nice, he was there when I had questions about exchanging money, sending a post card (they offer to send it for you) also gave me a bookmark gift. Never experienced a personnel as nice a him.

The room was a bit small and I reserved a room by myself for 2, but price/quality wise you get what you pay for. Also the hotel itself is literally at the beginning of the Myeongdong street so it was sooo comfortable to go shop go back home and then go out again and shop. Also literally 3 min walk to the bus station that gets you directly to the airport.
