야코리아 호스텔 이태원

욕실이 지저분했음

I have stayed here before, I will stay again. Basic accommodations at a reasonable price with friendly and accommodating staff. You can't ask for more.

Close to subway station and convenience store. Some eateries nearby. Johnny is helpful. There is laundry service available and that is great.

The drain was very strange - everything from the sink drained in the opposite direction across the floor, so you basically had to step in it to get around the bathroom. The pillows had stains all over it, which was a bit unpleasant. Location was very convenient as it is close to the war memorial as well as the subway. Check in and out was a breeze.

I have lived in Korea for two years and usually when in the Itaewan area I stay here.But, if you want good wifi or TV with good English channels and a good shower, you might want to look elsewhere. Its all personal preference. One thing that does stand out here is the staff. ALWAYS friendly and helpful. There is a girl there, I think her name was Sandra, who went way out of her way to help me locate a place I wanted to see. Not too many would have done that. Another girl there, from Taiwan, who also speaks great English along with Sandra, is very friendly and helpful. So, it really is what you what at the time. I do stay elsewhere when I plan on relaxing and using the wifi a lot. Its very clean and quiet and I'm sure you will like it there even with the pitfalls.
