Unpleasant

I rarely leave a review on the hotels I’ve stayed. This place has became worst. A year ago it was a very nice hostel that was newly renovated in a old building. Things were good except that the bed was hard back then. This time round when I got back, I got really annoyed at the cleanliness in the bathroom, walls, tiles, Super hard bed, absence of water and shower materials. You have to bring almost everything yourself.

Awesome Hostel!

Nothing but good things to write about KW Sinsa Hostel. Super easy to find as it is really close to two subway stops. The hostel was ready for my arrival and super easy to get into the room. Really clean room and everything that could be needed. I would stay here again anytime and highly recommend it to people looking for a great place to stay for a good price :)

The location is really convenient and close to good food... and sinsa boulevard. The workers were super nice and helpful. The room was more spacious compared to other hostels. as well as the bathroom. Overall the place is a 8.5 out of 10. The only bad thing was the beds were super hard.. lol

I really enjoyed my 4 days stay at Hostel KW Sinsa. The instructions they email you prior to arrival was super easy to follow and the hostel is a short walkable distance from the nearest subway station. Check-in, while a tad on the informal side (there is no reception/lobby, just a check-in room in the basement), was super quick and I was shown to my room straightaway. The room was, in my opinion, fantastic for the price I was paying. It was more like a furnished studio apartment than a hostel room. There was basic kitchen appliances, including full-sized fridge & stove-top if you are keen to cook, plenty of cupboard space, TV, even a washing machine. Everything was tidy, neat and clean. The free wifi was definitely a bonus. I was pleasantly surprised. Some minor things to be aware of: minimal hangers so bring your own if that's important, no cleaning services during your stay, which didn't bothered me at all as I liked my privacy and knowing that I can just place my things around the place as I see fit. And for the rate you pay, it's a great deal.

overall is ok, budget hostel, u can't expect more. i stayed for about 10 days, but never provide room cleaning service and the reception is closed on weekend. should improve on this issue. Is great that inside the room with washing machine, but there is no dryer inside the room or public area.(oops~ there is no public area) when ask for extra clothes hangers, they only can give me max. 3 ~ lol No extra pillow even i asked for it. Great thing is the FREE WIFI. ~~~~~~~ around the hostel with a lot of restaurant/cafe/pub, convenient to get the food. about 15 min walking distance to Sinsa station. can get airport bus also.

전체적으로 깔끔하니 만족한 숙박

압구정쪽 출장이있어서 숙박을 하게됐는데 원래 예약할려던곳이 마감이 돼어 급하게 예약한거라 사실 큰기대는 안했습니다 하지만 기대이상 깔끔하고 조용하고 맘에든 숙박이었습니다 침대매트리스 스프링 소리가 움직일때마다 쫌 심하게 나는거 외엔 전체적으로 만족합니다

다음에도 갈래요.

친구들과의 서울 여행에서 안락하고 편안한 곳에서 숙박 할 수 있었습니다. 3명이 사용 할 수 있는 방이었고, 필요한 시설은 다 갖추어져 있었습니다. 또한 신사역과 논현역이 상당히 가깝고, 교통이 편리하여 한남 및 서울 도심까지의 이동도 편리합니다.

長期滞在にオススメ！

6泊しました。 チェックインの際は誰もおらず入り口の所に置き手紙があったのでスムーズに入れました。 4階まであってエレベーターなしなのでスーツケースを持って上まで上がるのがきつかったです。 バスタオルはなく、足拭きマットのみでした。 暖房をいれていればとても暑く、消していればとても寒かったです。適度な気温がなかったです。 駅からはとても近く周りにもご飯屋さんがたくさんあったので便利でした。部屋の広さも狭くなくスーツケースを2つ広げられるスペースは充分にあります。食器、洗濯機、冷蔵庫などもついていたので助かりました。

정말 최악이었습니다

비행기가 늦어져서 늦게 체크인할거라고 연락드리니까 로비에 종이 붙여두면 그거 보고 체크인하면 된다고 하셔서 12시 넘어서 도착했더니 종이가 있길래 그거 보고 입실했으나 저희 방이 아니더군요.. 네이버 치면 나오는 번호로 전화해서 상황 말씀 드렸더니 거기 들어가시면 안 된다고 하길래 그러면 저희는 어디로 가냐고, 저희 방을 알려주시라고 하니까 지금 확인이 안 된다고만 하시고 기다려달래서 새벽에 여성 셋이서 갈곳도 없고 해서 숙소에 연락하고 삼십분 정도 그방에서 누가 들어올지도 모르고 무서운데 기다렸어요.. 길거리에 있을 수는 없으니까.. 연락이 닿아서 새벽 한시가 넘은 시간에 겨우 원래 방으로 돌아왔구요 호텔측 실수로 체크인에 문제가 생긴 건데 당일 통화할 때 이후에는 아무런 사과 연락도 못 받았습니다 들어와서 짐 풀고 쪽잠만 자고 나갈 상황이라 체크아웃 조금이라도 늦춰주실 수 있냐고 문자를 보냈지만 답장도 안 왔구요 세면대 물은 내려가지도 않아서 세수도 제대로 할 수도 없었어요 해외생활도 많이 했는데 이런 숙소는 처음이네요 두번다시 안 가고 싶습니다

혼자서 강남에 자야 할 일이 있어 숙박했는데 조용하고 편했습니다. 어메니티가 없어서 아쉬웠지만 다 준비해서 간다면 충분할 듯?
