    Multiple entrances can be a little confusing.

    Well located with lots around. It’s also easy to catch the bus with stops very close. Easy to meet people if you travel by yourself, it one of the more social places during my travels in Korea!

    - not a problem, but just a suggestion: maybe it’d be helpful putting some plates, in English, showing the way to the main entrance and other facilities. It’s was a little bit trick to find the entrance and breakfast place on the first day, due the ongoing renovation

    - a great place, with friendly staff and perfect location; - the room and bathroom sizes are good, and the air con works well; - the room is silent and the bed was very comfortable - despite the fact the breakfast is very simple, they offer scrambled eggs, which was perfect to me

    The 'open corridor' to go in your room can be very cold and wet, maybe not suited for winter

    A good surprise as i was not expecting too much here, rooms were nice with few people. It was very social and good vibe while i was there Decent breakfast, but has changed since then Staff was helpful

    The toilet is just a regular western one without the seat warmer/bidet etc. Also the window in the bathroom cannot be closed, which makes showering a bit uncomfortable. But you can't complain too much for the price.

    Helpful, friendly owner and staff. Good location just steps away from restaurants and other amenities and transport. Cleanliness was excellent.

    The included breakfast wasn't my cup of tea... Otherwise, guests should be reminded that the bedroom is a shared space, so they must RESPECT the sleep of everyone and the cleanliness of the area.. In 4 nights I was awakened by: One guy who gave a phone call at 2am!! One who turned on the lights in the middle of night and didn't switch it off... One came late sick (drunk?), vomited in the toilets without cleaning 🤮 One did some strange noise (sport?) or whatever in his bed for half an hour in the middle of the night.

    Very well-located. Friendly and welcoming staff. The bedrooms are clean and tidy, beds comfortable and clean. Bbq nights are worth the money. I came in Winter when it's not the best time to stay outside, but this hostel may be great in Summer with its terrace, its restaurant and underground bar.

    It is such a nice place. It is very big with many common areas, rooftop with great view, 2 common areas and a big garden. There is a campfire in the garden. It is a hostel where you have many opportunities to meet people and be social but it’s not a party/drinking hostel. So you can have a good sleep and some quiet time if you want. The staff is really kind too! They have curtains on the beds which is a must for me.

    The hostel front entrance could be made a bit clearer but it is not a big issue.

    The location is excellent, within walking distance to the seafront, restaurants, and buses to various island locations. The room was superb, well-equipped and roomy. The front desk staff were very helpful, helping me with travel advice. A nice kitchen for use. A cozy and spacious courtyard to enjoy the sun and mingle.

    Not the cleanest, I did see some small stains and hairs that weren’t mine on the mattress and the shower wall looked a bit moldy; but overall mostly clean

    Friendly staff, central location super close to olle trail 6 and 7; close to lots of bus lines and convenience stores, very social but also not a party environment, very comfortable beds and spacious rooms, quiet at night, and 3 cute dogs live in the outside area!

    The location was close to a few different bus stops and the market, which made traveling in Jeju easier without a car. Those staying at the hostel were really social and it was nice to come back after a day of traveling to relax by the fire and talk to others.

    I chose the place because it included breakfast. There was a sign at the entrance that said "no breakfast the next days because of renovation work". Either they serve breakfast somewhere else (which would be totally possible) or they lower the price since people already paid with a breakfast included. They did not even serve tea or coffee in the morning.

    Very good value , great location, friendly dogs, big dorms with clean bathroom, very fast internet
