second time staying at OYO Rooftop and we always enjoy our experience. It is very close to the metro, Myeongdong, bus stops, Seoul Tower, restaurants, and many more. The staff is very friendly and help in anyway possible. It was convenient to have breakfast every morning before we started our day. We look forward to booking a room the next time we visit Seoul.

The staff is really great and the place is nice, the biggest issue personally was having to share the toilet and shower among three rooms (this is probably limited to the 4th floor rooms). Except the shower/toilet thing it was a really good experience.

Condition of the place is old and broken. Dirty with cat feces on the garden and rooftop terrace. Noisy due to rubbish pick ups at 11-12 midnight. Place has no elevator. Bathroom condition was horrendous!!! No flushing toilet paper, tub and tiles on wall were cracked. Water pressure in shower was trickling. Just a very horrible experience! The staff was very helpful though.

This was great value for the money! It’s situated north of the crazy touristy part of Myeong-dong and only a 4 min walk to the subway. It was very quiet and convenient. The staff were delightful. David is so great and I very much enjoyed our nightly chats whenever I came back to the hostel. I’d stay here again!

I wouldn’t imagine any family staying in this horrible scary place where my kids and wife almost threw up from the smell and the ominous staircases. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who cares about their family’s safety and cleanliness

Yes, 5 starts!! I traveled with my two young daughters and my sister, we were on a budget so we booked this hotel. They don't have an elevator, we had to carried our luggage all the way up to 3rd floor, I hope that changes in the future. Oyo was very clean place, room is big and spacious I did like it very much. Breakfast was cereal, bread, coffee and juice (self served) you have to wash your own plates after you eat breakfast, which was okay no bother for me. Front desk was very helpful when I asked for help on how to get around I was giving a map of the area and very easy to follow directions. You either can walk or grab an uber to places, is very easy. All the stores, restaurants and markets are near by so this place is the best place to stay. They lock the front door after 10pm but you have a key pad on the door lift that up and just type the code, very safe place. I had laundry and each basket was 10,000Korean Won which was not bad at all, they washed and folded for you, great service!!! They all speak very good English, staff very friendly and helpful, there is one staff member that besides English he speaks Spanish very well!! That's a plus!!! I visited Ecox mall, Namdaemun Market, Gyeongbokgung Palace, the tower is close to this hotel you can literally walk there it's called (Namsan Cable Car), you'll get a great view of the whole city it's beautiful. This hotel is 20min drive from Gimpo Airport. Yes, I highly recommend Oyo Hostel and I'll stay there again. Thank you

Ce n’est pas un hôtel mais une auberge de jeunesse avec des chambres individuelles et salle de douche sommaire mais privée, mini serviette de toilettes non changées durant 5 jours. Petit déjeuner simple mais correct. Vous faites votre vaisselle et pas de ménage des chambres, vous vider vos poubelles de papier toilette usé. Lit confortable. Petite chambre sur micro terrasse fermée par rideau de fer car donnant sur passage en rez-de-chaussée. Terrasse en rooftop avec tables et chaises mais sans transat ni parasol. très bien situé entre tour Namsan et métro myeong dong .

Excelente localização em Myeongdong.

Ficamos 3 noites e tivemos uma boa estadia. O atendente foi super simpático e solícito em todas as nossas solicitações e dúvidas. A localização é o ponto forte, pois fica a uns 5 minutos a pé de Myeongdong, perto de restaurantes, lojas, linhas de metrô e também do ônibus para o aeroporto. O quarto era confortável e tamanho médio, ideal para três pessoas. Nos hospedamos no auge do inverno coreano e dentro do quarto era muito quente, tanto que dormimos com a janela aberta. Tinha ar condicionado, mas esse não deveria ser utilizado no inverno. O café da manhã era simples, com suco, leite, café, duas opções de pães, geleias, pasta de amendoim, entre outros. Não teve reposição de itens de higiene e toalhas, mas assim que solicitamos, nos atenderam prontamente. Recomendo e ficaria novamente pelo ótimo atendimento e localização.
