Clean and seemed to be well managed. Stayed two nights in an 8 bed dorm. Deducted one star as the internet wasn't working for a few hours the first morning.

Disappointing stay.
This was rated as a 4 star hotel on hotels. com and on arrival it turned out to be a backpacker hostel with shared shower and toilet facilities. Not something that was evident when booked. TV didn't tune to channels, no facilities within the room, WiFi was poor and no breakfast available. The room, however, was clean and well kept but the hostel was noisy. Left very early, very disappointed.

가성비 굿! 추천합니다!
호스텔은 처음 이였으나 괜찮았습니다. 방배정 운이 좋았던건지 8명 방인데 너무너무 조용하고 다음날 모두 늦은기상에 푹 잘 수 있었어요!!! 식당도 깨끗했어요 다만 음식이 있는 공간이고 여러사람이 사용하는 곳이여서 파리가..ㅎㅎㅎ 하카하우스는 추천
