Soul Majatalot

Plussat: I had an amazing time at the hostel. The staff working there was super friendly and organized many activities like nights out in Seoul. The place really had a hostel feel! As for facilities the hostel is nice and clean!

Miinukset: Nothing to complain about.

Plussat: Super friendly and helpful staff, perfect location for hongdae area and close to shops and metro station.

Miinukset: The breakfast is really not worth mentioning at all, even if its for free...they should offer some korea breakfast option at least. Smelly bathrooms and subsequently hallways.

Plussat: I've loved The Lazy Fox Den for their employees, people are so niiiice, very funny (hi Flore, Luca & Faysal) and they help you to integrate as they organize some activities as a Korean barbecue when was there. Moreover, the room are really clean and cosy. I recommend with no hesitation this hostel if you're travelling alone, you'll met a lot of people and the location is the best either to party (at the Zen Bar for example) or for tourism (subway nearby)

Miinukset: The only thing bad is when you leave The Lazy Fox Den. :(

Plussat: 에리 짱 . Bathrooms were cleaned regularly and the staff were friendly!

Miinukset: Noisy at night

Plussat: stayed for two weeks, was absolutely amazing! a great place to go if you're traveling alone, it's very social oriented and the people are lovely.

Miinukset: nothing!

Plussat: The staff was very nice and helpful

Miinukset: Really bad airflow in the room. The beds were not nice. Building feels dirty and wornout. The walls was to thin, you could hear everything your neigbour was doing..

Plussat: Very good location, quiet place, easily reachable and not far from anything ! But more than this, super friendly and helpful staff :)

Plussat: Liked the common room downstairs, a nice place to meet new people and hangout. Location is good and staff was nice, overall is worth the price.

Plussat: It's a cozy bunch! Lovely people who work there. A kitchen with actual cooking stuff.

Plussat: very comfortable

Plussat: Great location! Very close to a metro stop, parks, plenty of coffee shops cafes, and restaurants. Our room was rather small but great value for the price. Internet speeds were fast, towels were provided, and guesthouse was easy to locate. Our room had a lock and key so we felt safe and secure.

Miinukset: Breakfast was provided, but very simple - we went out for breakfast most days. Room was small (we had the two twin beds private room), but we got what we paid for!

Plussat: The property is very accessible, it just takes 3 mins walk to train station (chungmuro stn). The room and bathroom was very neat and clean. The staffs and the owner Ms Sophia is very nice and accommodating. They provide whatever we need, including iron, blowers, new towels everyday. We loved their strawberry jam, so delicious! Sophia also granted our request to check out late since there is no one to occupy the room that day. Definitely worth it!

Plussat: We've stayed here before & decided to stay again because of the convenience of check in & location (escalator at nearest subway station is a plus). Staff is also very responsive & accommodating of inquiries & requests. Although there was a mixup with our room, they did their best to provide us a comfortable & enjoyable stay. They even gave us a room upgrade & covered our taxi fare to make up for it. We'll definitely stay again.

Miinukset: There was a mixup with our room so we had to stay at a different place on the first night. It was a little inconvenient but the staff did their best to make it as convenient as possible for us.

Plussat: Very friendly and excellent service. Ideal location by 2 subway lines and very nice comfortable spacious rooms. Would definitely stay there again!

Plussat: The host was extremely helpful and responsive .

Miinukset: It was great!

Plussat: It was comfortable. Near the station at convenient stores. Near starbucks. It was really easy commuting because tou have a lot of choices. 2 Metro lines and bus stops. Nearby is an airport shuttle stop so you don’t need to take the metro to/from the airport. Metros are not recommended if you have luggages with you. Too hustle going up and down the stairs.

Miinukset: It was a bit difficult to contact the reception since they come a little bit late during the day and you need to call them on the phone, esp if you are leaving early in the morning (i didn’t get tos ee the person i talked on the phone during the whole week of stay)

Plussat: Affordable price, clean room, good staff and accessible to places. Definitely recommended. :)

Miinukset: What we only didn't like was adaptors are loose. It's hard to connect with the power outlet.

Plussat: The property was decent for being a hostel and the location was perfect. It was located a short 6-8 minute walk to the Chungmuro station, which is a great spot for getting around. The hostel is also located near a lot of grocery stores and restaurants! What really made they stay great was the people running the hostel. They were very accommodating toward us! Our sink was initially clogged, but once we talked to them about it, they fixed it asap the next day. We were able to call at anytime to ask questions about our stay and they were always happy. When i had booked a room for a later date after I had left Korea by mistake, they even allowed me to cancel without any fees even though it was late when i noticed. If you’re going to Korea, definitely consider coming here! You’ll be in good hands

Miinukset: The bathroom wasn’t disgusting and was fairly clean, but just wish it looked a little nicer, but that might just be my pet peeve.

Plussat: We spend a really nice stay in Seoul thanks to the worker from the hostel. The owner was really amazing and did everything to help us and make our trip easy.

Plussat: the washing service is good and i is free o charge, the breakfast is ok.

Miinukset: Rooms are barely cleaned, you can tell it from the grabage found close to the bed, behind it. There is no actual sink, So it is uncomfortable to wash hands as your feet ge wet. the wall between rooms is to thin, you can listen to what the other are saying and doing.

Plussat: I liked that stuff helped me to carry my baggage because it was very heavy and they help me to go to airport.

Miinukset: Toilet was really uncomfortable because in my opinion it was for really small people. And also the bathroom in my room had not any sink. Moreover, under the bed it was dirty.

Plussat: Very friendly staff :D Good location, there is a bus stop near the guesthouse. Also breakfast time is from 07:00 to 10:00. Perfect time! I liked it :3

Miinukset: I though the room would be bigger and the bathroom is a little different than I expected. But it wasn't bad at all.

Plussat: Guesthouse has an amazing atmosphere,like a fairy tail,great and cozy design. Good kitchen , good stuff , clean room

Miinukset: A little bit small room and a little bit far away from subway

Plussat: The staff were great - the hot water in our first room didn't work & they moved us. Very friendly staff. The bus stop was less than 5 minutes walk away from the guesthouse. It was very quiet and the A/C was great!

Miinukset: The subway was a 20 minute walk & there wasn't much to do nearby. All of the local restaurants except Paris Baguette were closed by 10pm - so eat dinner early if you are eating in the local area.

Plussat: The room is big and complete with kitchen items.

Miinukset: Its too far from the tourist attraction

Plussat: This was my second stay in the guesthouse and this time my room had a better design. The property is improving. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My flight was at late night and the manager gave me a ride to the Seoul station to catch the airport bus. I strongly recommend this place for anyone who wants to stay in a single bedroom with an affordable price. If I'm back to Seoul again, I will stay in this guesthouse again.

Miinukset: The humidity is very high in summer season even with air condition.

Plussat: I loved the overall atmosphere and style

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The guesthouse is located near (10 minutes walk) from Yeongdeungpo station, which has many restaurants, shops and a couple of big malls. On my opinion here you can buy almost anything you want and do not need to go to e.g. Myeong-dong. As the Yeongdeungpo station belongs to Line 1, it is very easy to travel to Seoul station (and basically any central station). There are some good places to eat very near the guesthouse (I liked to go to a small restaurant just across the road if you go to the right from the entrance). The other positive sides are as follow: + For a very low price you get a basic breakfast (corn flakes with milk and toasts with jam) + The common place is good-looking and comfortable + You get clean towels every day (a must during the summer time) + Staff is friendly and ready to help + Kitchen and a fridge are available for guests + Internet access is stable and fast enough Something to keep in mind (not necessarily negative): - You can eat only in a dinning zone - In a room you get what you pay for - only bad and a shower/toilet, so if you need a table you need to go to the common place, which was not a problem for me at all

Miinukset: The place is really great for the price, so I have nothing to complain. I would probably suggest to add a laundry service, but it may not be so easy for the owner.

Plussat: Near by bus station. Room was clean. Price was good.

Plussat: Lovely Place. Homely Common Area and Nice Breaky. Convenient store is located on 1min distance. Cleanness , Location , Staff all was good enough for me. -Cheers

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Very close to the station and there are fliers for activities.

Miinukset: The complimentary breakfast was mostly bread.

Plussat: The location between two well linked subway lines was fantastic and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The communal areas were really nice and the option to make breakfast helped keep the costs down. If the weather had been better then the terrace would have been great. Little touches like free to borrow umbrellas and tourist information really made this a wonderful place to stay in Seoul.

Miinukset: The wet room didn't drain particularly well with the drain being a little smelly at times-everywhere in Seoul seemed to suffer after heavy rain. For the reasonable price you don't expect a large room but it was frustrating that there was no storage at all.

Plussat: Location is good, very clean

Miinukset: Breakfast everyday just the same.

Plussat: The common area was really comfortable and the breakfast set up was good. The double room we stayed in was clean and the bed was pretty comfortable too.^^

Plussat: The location! Abit quiet at night if a female walking alone but during the day it's fine. Really close to Hongdae but not noisy.

Miinukset: Smaller than expected, for the same price in another area the rooms are double the size. Plumbing wasn't great either

Plussat: Room has much space and it fits and accurate with their photos and information. The place is nearby Hongik, so it is easy to do shopping till late night.

Miinukset: The property should improve their breakfast and their service. Breakfast should be more variety and has better taste. All they have are only cereal and bread w/ milk. In my opinion, at least they should provide us some egg or ham. Moreover, their staff should be the one who washes the dishes. All the thing their staffs have done so far is only checking-in. Even Check-out we have done ourselves by filling out the form. I'm being disappointed for their services so far and I found out their service being not worth enough what I've paid.

Miinukset: We had some issues trying to pack initially so we apologized to the front desk and told them to give us a little more time to organise our stuff. The lady at the front desk started screaming at me despite me trying to explain the situation to her nicely. While I understand that there might be other bookings they might have needed to fulfill, which I would've been happy to work around, screaming at your guest is simply unacceptable. Furthermore, on the way out, one of the male staff came out of the guesthouse while holding an umbrella and pulled my boyfriend, to the point red marks were visible on his arms. We didn't know why said staff at as doing so as he refused to speak to us in English and only mumbled in Korean. He even threatened to call the police, which we only knew of after our taxi driver translated it to us. He also pulled on the taxi and tried to open the car door repeatedly to prevent us from moving off. Am all in all extremely disappointed, and have got nothing good to say about this establishment. Additionally, they only accept payment in cash which is extremely inconvenient as nobody carries that much cash around to make payment for an 8 day stay.

Plussat: This place was clean comfortable and in a good location! I would definitely go there again!

Plussat: The location is very central and also quiet.

Miinukset: They only have thick, heavy blankets, so you're either hot or cold.

Plussat: I liked the location more than anything. The staff was very helpful.

Miinukset: The electric plugs didn’t work well and the shower had a drop going on all night.
