SunCity Hostel

Stayed here with my sister for 4 nights, our first time in Seoul proper. Has excellent transport - close to Itaewon (10-15min walk tops), also close to a lot of Vegan Restaurants (good for my sister who is Vegan), bars and pubs - many expats around. Right next to Samkaji subway station, which also has a bus stop for the night bus going to the airport which was great for me. Staff friendly, enjoyed meeting them. The room itself was a little small - not big enough for two giant suitcases really. Sheets were a little stained, but more from age rather than any real dirt. Shower was kind of tiny - the water pressure sucked for hot water, but if you don't mind cold showers was pretty good. Overall, enjoyed my stay here!

Loved staying here. It had everything I needed and some awesome people to hang out with! Would definitely recommend to anyone flying through. Thanks Serena for hanging out and making my stay as awesome as possible!

Booked on the day, Tuesday for 20,000원 KRW. Price was cheap, especially for the private room. But where do I start. 1. Location isn’t Itaewon. So don’t book here if you think you’re there. It’s not mega far, but a bit misleading. 2. “I’ve upgraded you so leave a good review on trip advisor”. Ummm.... 3. Upgrade? Couldn’t swing a cat. Stains on the duvet and pillows. Towels had brown marks on them with hairs that were not mine. 4. Whoever the manager was, he was scolding a customer in front of everyone. Not very nice for her or us who were waiting to check in. 5. Do I need to go on? Sorry, but might be cheap. But no thanks.
