Great place to stay in Myeongdong. The hostel is nice and quiet despite being maybe a block away from the main shopping street, and barely 5 mins from train station. The room was not very big but enough to store a large suitcase and comfortably move around. Small note - in our room the bathroom is separated by a glass partition, not a separate room. The staff was also friendly and kind, and spoke great English.
Staff were great and the location is very central. In-house laundry was convenient and reasonably priced.
Everything else was bad unfortunately:
The room layout didn’t make sense - there was a step as you enter the room which I tripped on twice
there is no space to do make up
the beds were uncomfortable(they put a plastic mattress cover under the sheet)
the towels were the size of wash cloths
the water pressure was almost non existent(staff said there was a problem at the time)
no space for luggage
bathroom was crammed - shower head above the sink
random projector which was bad quality and not worth using
breakfast bread was stale
Had to put a cash deposit for a second room key for a room booked for two people
somehow mosquitoes kept finding their way into the room.
It was amazing stay in oyo2. Location is just in the spot. Staff is friendly but professional(fluent English speaking).
8th floor they have terrace(small garden with table/chairs).
You dont have to ask extra stuff(towel tissue) because they prepared in the cabinet.
Breakfast was simple( toast butter jam juice coffee serial) but sweet.
One thing i couldn’t give 5stars
Noise. You can hear alarm from the next room.
But definitely i will choose oyo2 next time when i am going to myungdong seoul.
Location is superb! Just a few steps away from the nearest metro and you’re in the heart of shopping in Myeongdong. Room is small but cozy, love the heated floors! There’s also free simple breakfast. Reception and service is great, thanks to Andy and his team!

Thank you for your kind comment about us. We're glad to have you here, hope that we can see you again in here!
Location couldn't have been better- very close to Myeongdong subway. Room was smal but cosy!
Very easy check in and check out.
Perfect base for a fun trip in Seoul!
1. 3- min walk from bus stop 6001/ 6015 to the hostel.
2. 1-min walk to the centre of Myeong Dong.
3. There is a TV in your room to watch Korean TV programmes or Youtube. It is essential for solo travellers like me.
4. Free toast and freshly brewed coffee are provided.
Zimmer sehr klein und hellhörig, , Frühstück ein totaler Flop ( nur Toast und 1 Sorte Konfitüre)
Dafür ist die Lage top! Metro 50 m entfernt, Streetfoot und Shopping ca.200 Meter.
Die Lage gut, Zimmer zum größtenteils mit Blick auf Hauswand oder sogar indoor gelegen, Frühstück mit Schoko, erdnussbutter, Jogurt, Müsli , Toast. Zimmer sehr klein, Personal sehr freundlich, Betten mit Plastik geschützt, so dass man sehr schwitzt.
OYO is the most famouse hotel brand in the world now. And I stayed OYO many times before in other countries. Everytime i'm very satisfied. OYO in Korea also provided me cozy room, and kindfull service with smile. ;)
