the TV cannot function at all, even though the staff could not fix it, his effort is appreciated.
on the last day checking out, before the the check-out hours 11am, the house-keeper just open my room door with the master key, luckily i shouted and warned her.
i really do not understand why such low level mistake would happen.
the location is really convenient, many stores and restaurants nearby.

It was a good stay at Ara125. The staff are friendly and helpful especially Joon.
The place is very clean. Room was a bit small but still ok. Breakfast was great.
Good location. Will recommend to friends.

B&B/ hostel located at the end/ start of Myeondong busy street, so less noisy, but beware of cars/cabs driving into the road. 5 min walk from Euljiro 1 train station (Hana Bank as landmark). Lift is fast to get to level 6. Room is cute and cosy, super love the bedding, stools, mini racks, tv etc. Basic toilteries & room slippers provided. Bathroom is compact, just nice for 1 person. Pantry is great with endless supply of Indomee (halal for muslim customers), instant noodles, eggs, bread, jam, peanut butter, cheese & grapes. Has common dining room to eat together. Water dispenser available at pantry, weighing machine, recycling dustbins available at corridor. Staff are very friendly and always helpful. Would stay here again!

Great hosel, very well located, close to the subway station. Lots of street stores nearby. Also shopping mall, restaurants. I had a very good experience in there. Hostel attendants are very kind and friendly with requests. Hostel care about visitors asking for silence and providing food support even for late use. I will definitely return!

Ara125 is in an excellent location at a quiet street but just a stroll from the MyeongDong shopping area and night market. It's so convenient to get to /from the airport. If you have bigger luggage use the elevator at exit 5 of Eulijiro 1-ga station and walk across the slip road and turn to your left. It's a 5-min walk. If you like fried chicken, BHC Chicken is just round the corner!

Warm little restaurant with small kitchen for cooking! Very considerate, there is a refrigerator to store refrigerated items! The people at the service desk can speak Chinese, so communication is no problem! Worth recommending!

I chose this hostel because of the good reviews online. You can check in at 3 o'clock local time in Korea, and the staff will introduce you in detail. It is fully equipped and has toiletries except toothbrush and toothpaste. The room is clean and comfortable, not big but enough for one person. The location is very convenient, just a few steps away from Myeongdong. Will come again next time.

The hotel is located in Myeongdong and is very convenient. There are many shopping stores, restaurants, convenience stores, etc. nearby. The airport bus station is about 5-10 minutes' walk away. The hotel also provides cooking and food, which is very considerate.

Super central and next to the metro. Small room, but sufficient and not very noisy. Breakfast with toast and butter and jam, coffee, etc. Good place for a few days.

The room was clean and the owner was kind, so I had a comfortable stay.
The location was good, and it was close to both Myeongdong Station and Euljiro 1ga Station, so I could go sightseeing as soon as I left the hotel.
However, I was concerned that there were no tissues in the room.

It's in a very convenient location, close to the station and Olive Young.
The room was clean, but the only negative thing was that there was a strong smell of paint or something.
The staff spoke Japanese and were friendly and smiling, so I was able to stay there with peace of mind.
Thank you.
