Guest reviews for SSH LK Hostel

Ayşe - 25/03/2026 05:45:01

"Location is very good and staff is helpful. We requested a room where my sister could get some fresh air, and they arranged a suitable room for us. Front door has lock that is good for safety."

"The place was exactly as shown in the photos and met my expectations."

"Near Dongdaemun and Jongno 5-ga station. Near Gwangjang market. Near Airport Bus stop 6002. Clean place. Helpful staff."

"Aucun."

"For the price I liked it a lot, you are right next to Jongo 5-ga station and there is a bus stop next to it. It is a bit hard to get here at first by taxi as it will bring you from the other side and the hotel is in a alleyway that is not accesible by car but if you let the taxi drop you off at the metro station it’s only a 1 minute walk. The staff is incredibly nice she even walked with me to the airport bus stop to help bring my luggages because I was alone and had to carry 3 luggages on my own."

"This is something that did not bother me much, but if you are very sensitive to noise please keep in mind that the walls are quite thin and you will be able to hear a lot of noise like people coming in out of their rooms, walking in the hallways, talking etc. It did not bother me that much as I am not much of a light sleeper but on days it did I just put earplugs in that they provided. One thing that bothered me a bit was that the window was facing the other building so it didnt have much of a function and the room had no proper daylight through the ‘window’ so it would be really dark and I couldn’t really tell if it was morning or not because of it lol."

"Very good location. 1min away from the subway station. Useful kitchen."

"Quite dusty and a bit rundown. But considering the value for money, those can be overlooked."

"The room is big. It is also close to the bus stops and train station. The self-service option is pretty convenient too."

"My room is on the 3rd floor (roof deck). There were no elevators. It is raining during the day that I came and I need to have an umbrella just to reach my room. It does smell a sewer outside but thankfully inside the room it is not."

"I’m glad I just made a reservation for 1 night . The place was so dirty and I couldn’t even sleep . Dust , the smell in the room , the bed sheets were just disgusting. I payed the same amount for another place but it was completely different. I talked to the stuff but they were speechless when I showed the pictures I took of the room and under the bed"

"It was full of dust , there was a topper under my bed with something inside and it seems they haven’t even clean for years ."

A5 - 06/05/2025 12:29:13

"I had a cosy room, the hostel is near subway/bus station (1 min), near major turistic attractions, clean, helpful stuff, filtered water (warm and cold), coffee, juice, milk, all the vessels needed to eat comfortable, even a luggage scale (which is of huge importance) and a washing machine. The street nearby were full of restaurants, 2 big markets, many places to eat and shop."

"I loved my room with one exception, it had no window to the light and fresh air. I'm European and a solar person. So I couldn't get up earlier. But I know now that most of the buildings are linked to each other so that's why there is no view from the apartments."

Glenn - 19/04/2025 10:34:09

"The staff at this hostel are so nice and really made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. Jenny and Eva at reception were very helpful to me regarding all my requests for things for the room as well as information about Seoul and more. I had many questions about staying in the city and they answered my questions quickly with useful links in the messages about local transportation and tourist sites. I appreciated that very much! The location of this hostel is excellent! 10 minutes walk to Gwangjang Market, 35 minutes walk to Insadong. It is close to subway stops as well as just about any shop, restaurant, market or pharmacy nearby. I also liked having the breakfast cereal, juice and coffee every morning to start to the day."

"The size of the room was small and the shower is not separate from rest of bathroom, which I would have preferred, but I got used to it. And there was no view through the window at all, only a view of another building’s wall. But, I knew these things before booking the room, so it was a minor inconvenience."

Timne - 17/04/2025 17:12:10

"Ease of entry and secure door codes. Staff supplied outlet adapters. Wifi was strong. Liked mini fridge."

"No closet and few hangers. Noisy hallway."

Dessa - 13/04/2025 14:06:13

"It was a last minute booking for me and I was glad that there was still a room available in this hostel. The price is very affordable and the location is great, close to the bus and subway stations. It was good that I got the room on the first floor because it would have been challenging to go up the stairs since I have heavy luggage."

"Aucun."

Guest reviews

"The location was great! Very close to the Hongik Uni. station and nearby got many convenient stores and local eateries."

"Despite this being a "love hotel" and the stigma that may come with that, I felt it was great value for money. The room was great, clean and spacious. Soundproofing excellent. Shower was hot and had good water pressure. The bed & pillows were comfortable. Easy walk from the Intercity Bus Terminal."

Avis de Pascale Sugar Hotel

"The property is in a great location. Can easily walk to shops, SED, and Osan Air Base. Good air conditioning."

Avis de Genovieve Mariposa Hotel Songtan

"The staff were very friendly, the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel is very close to a major bus stop and a subway station, so it was very easy to get around. It's surrounded by restaurants and cafés. Great location. It's within walking distance of Cheonggyecheon stream, and there's also a street market at Myeongdong-gil not too far away."

Avis de Megan Woomigwan Hotel

"Nice and clean, good location. Pretty basic room, bakery doesn’t open until late morning."

"The hotel is extremely well located to use public transportation and shops. The room was very clean. However, the heater was not working well until I had to call the staff for a help. It seems the system needs to be upgraded for severe cold weather or he staff should have provide instruction for the guests beforehand. All staff members were kind, but I somehow felt my questions were not so welcomed? I couldn't feel genuine kindness from a couple of the staff members over the phone and in-person. In general, this hotel was very valuable for the price."

"The staff was incredibly kind. The facilities were clean. It's very close to a subway station. There's a Luxury Bus stop next to the subway (a special bus service that takes you to and from the Incheon airport). It has an amazing Korean BBQ place nearby, a mini market, and different coffee shops. Very affordable. Spacious room."

Avis de Kali Grace Motel

"The room was clean and exactly as advertised. Slippers and robes were provided. Located near the major palaces and so it was great for tourists."

Avis de Richard The Post Hotel
