We’re very much satisfied with our stay at Oyo. The only problem we encounter was it doesn’t have an elevator. We came with a 79 y/o parent & was a bit disappointed when we found out that it doesn’t have an elevator. The lift is only for luggages. But other than that we’re ok. Good thing our senior was able to manage it. Overall, we’ll stay again at this hostel. Thank you!

I stayed in the 6 bed female dorm, and the room was shockingly quiet. The bed was comfortable and gave a level of privacy with a curtain that pulled close. They also had a minimal breakfast in the morning and the staff were nice and helpful. It was also in a good location. My main issue with this place was the cleanliness in the bathroom… it was most often NOT clean, which is very weird, because my other problem with this place was that the staff came into the room at least 3 times throughout the day to clean and mess with the ac and air units every day. That was not ideal when I was trying to sleep and recover from jet lag, but if they can go into the rooms that much, they can go into the bathroom more and clean it better. Also, like stated in other reviews, the bathroom does smell, and right when you walk into the property does too. Oh and I almost forgot my other biggest complaint - in the main sitting and kitchen area, it’s full of mosquitos!! You can’t actually sit out there without getting attacked by them. They were worse inside than anywhere I went outside, and sometimes they do make it into the room. With all that said, overall the place was fine enough, depending on what you’re looking for. Some good things, some not so good things. I would potentially stay there again, but only as a last resort.

Located centrally in a quiet area. Very close to transport options. Inclusive breakfast was adequate. Rooftop nice. Lots of nearby supermarket opsitons. Only criticism was needing to walk through reception/lounge area to get to bathrooms from dorm rooms.

初めての韓国旅行で利用させていただきました。まず、ホテルのサービスがとてもよかったです。航空会社との予約トラブル時に急遽電話を貸していただいたり、みなさんにとても親切にしていただきました。 なんと!この価格帯で簡易的な朝食もついており、共有で使用するエリアも清潔で、夜間ライトアップされた屋上ではテイクアウトしたごはんとお酒で韓国ドラマのような経験ができたのは最高です! 交通の便もよくカカオタクシーなどで配車しホテル前まで(注意:車が行き交う場所なので長く駐車はできません)きていただけたので旅行中の移動もスムーズでした! 気になった点を言うと、部屋の中のシャワー&トイレスペースです。おそらく排水溝から小バエが侵入してきて気がつくと部屋に数匹うろついています。また使用済みトイレットペーパーは直接流せず、専用のゴミ箱に入れないといけないので、慣れていない日本人は最初は抵抗があるかもしれません。 シャワールーム内の塗装や外壁も少し傷んでおり、小バエの件も合わせて「施設のコンディションと設備」が★3ですが、それ以外は全く問題を感じませんでした。 最後に、早朝の空港までのタクシー手配など、丁寧に対応していただき本当にありがとうございました!!
