트래블러스A 서울 호스텔

Great place for the price. I don't think I've found many hostels that include a private bathroom and shower plus AC for $25. I'd highly recommend if you just need a comfortable place to crash in the area.

Hostel has no elevator and the owner may or may not be there to help you (I had to frantically pack my things the night before my check out as the owner informed me she would not be available the morning after unfortunately). However, the staff are very friendly and try their best to help given the circumstances. The location is very convenient which was the best part of my stay. Single rooms are quite cheap and have an individual wet room with toilet and showerhead, which was really great. Just be warned that if your luggage is heavy, the single rooms are on the third and fourth floors so expect to have to drag it up (although there is a metal ramp on the side to assist with this). Not sure if I'd want to stay here again but seems to be decent compared to other places in Korea, based on reviews by people online. If you're travelling alone and want to be within walking distance of Gwangjang market (a must-go), Dongdaemun, and Myeong-dong (about 20 minutes by foot), this has an ideal location with basic living quarters, so weigh the cost-benefit of it to suit your situation.

The hostel is near to the Gwangjang market and Cheonggyecheon stream. The overall was good. This hostel has plenty of bathrooms. One who wish to book this hostel need to take note that this area was less busy and all shops will be closed after 7-8pm.
