Amazing hostel in Itaewon. Close walk (8mins) from Metro station and outside of the noisy bar streets, so you can rest. Private room was smaller, but had everything, including AC and table. Shared bathrooms and toilet were clean. Amazing rooftop, very nice breakfast where you can make your eggs, toast, cereals and coffee/tea. Very friendly and helpful staff, couldn't pick a better place for start in South Korea. Highly recommend to everyone, it was super nice! Thank you :)

had an amazing stay at Sleep Box in Seoul! Jax, the host, is genuinely one of the kindest people I’ve ever met – by far the most friendly and helpful host I’ve had. He was always there with a smile, offering help, treats, and just a great vibe overall. He and his lovely wife run the place with so much warmth and care, and as a guest, you can truly feel it. The location is also super central, making it easy to get around the city. Highly recommend!

The hostel is great location for exploring the city. The Sinchon Metro station is really close to the property, so you can get anywhere. It's easy to get there from the airport by train.

Staying at Boro was a delightful experience! The asian modern, stylish room perfectly caters to young travelers, with thoughtful design details that make life convenient. The bed was incredibly warm and spotless, offering cozy comfort after long days of exploring. While the AC was a bit too chilly (a minor drawback), the real highlight was the wonderful people I met here—friendly conversations and shared stories made the stay truly special. If you're looking for a vibrant, welcoming space with a youthful vibe, Boro is an excellent choice. Highly recommended for fellow adventurers!

It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
