South KoreaIt’s well maintained and so cosy with a nice kitchen and living room area along with the garden! It was close to the town center and parking was plenty on the street. Plus, I met great people there! Such a nice atmosphere that you can expect ever!

TaiwanThe front desk staff has a very welcoming attitude(sometimes some place will have bad attitude). He even introduced himself personally and gave us his heartfelt blessings when we left, it was truly touching and grateful.
We had a wonderful two-night stay, and the amenities were fully equipped. 🧡

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

It was a pleasant stay and Jjen (not sure of spelling) was very helpful and kind. The first night came with a rough morning because of all the people going in and out of the door right by my head very early in the morning (fresh powder!) Not the hostels fault I know, but hard to sleep. But Jjen switched me to a room further down and it was loads better. The kitchen was very busy most of the time so I didn't cook there. But it was clean in the morning. It was a great location and nice staff.

Great location - super close to the supermarket. Kitchen was massive, and kept really clean. Lots of cooking space, as well as eating space. I was in a 3 person bedroom - not bunk beds which was nice. Good wifi, nice staff. It was a nice place to stay for a few days.
