Hostel Experience in South Korea Seoul 🇰🇷

Bulgaria

The Hostel is not so big and it is not as a typical hostel. So that means the commen area is not really made to hangout cozy or with a lot of people, but that don't need to stop you to learn new people. The food is not bad and if you have special diet maybe will be less opinions of course. Noel, the manager is social and answers very quickly. The other volunteers are very nice and because of the fun time with them you forgot most of the flaws.

We had a good time staying at the hostel. Very friendly stafft, he job is very easy, we never worked the whole hours, great location, and Noel (the host) is very kind. To make the best out of it, you need to keep in mind that it's exactly as shown in description/pics: simple bedroom and rice and noodles as meals. If you're okay with that (like we were), you'll have a good time :) We recommend the experience and would return!

I stayed at this hostel in Korea for almost two months and had a great experience. Communication was always smooth, and extending my stay was super easy and flexible, which I really appreciated. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a nice mix of international volunteers who make the place feel lively and friendly. The work was very manageable and clearly explained, so it never felt stressful. Overall, it was nice to meet people from all over the world, and I enjoyed the relaxed working environment, and easy tasks.

Volunteering in Seoul has been one of the best experiences I've ever had. I loved the city and the people I met. The hostel is simple but well located near the hostel, and has very good transport links. The work is easy and usually takes 1 or 2 hours to complete. I highly recommend it.

I was a morning receptionist so my job was pretty easy . Rooms are kinda small but ventilation works good . Food is basic and we can run out of food for couple days but not a big problem because street is full with food places . Volunteers are pretty friendly with age range from 19 to 30s(most of them above 25). It was my first time experiencing and I'm happy that I did it . I would recommend for first time but you need to know that is a hostel and people with every kind of intentions can be found at this place.

This place really provied what it offers . The place is simple so it's fine for just sleeping. It's close to subway and bus stations so it's easy to get around. The work was very simple and quick, and working hours were always respected. Unfortunately I had a bad experience because of some other volunteers, as they create gossip and make problems for no reason. Mentioning that they affected my valuables things, which was not nice at all. Same situation I spoke to the manager about and fortunately he understood the event, and for that reason I preferred to leave the volunteering.

I stayed there for 2 months working at the reception, my first month was great but after I started to have some issues about other volunteers who was sharing the room with me because they didn't want to clean, I asked the host to help me but he said "I cant help' so after sick weeks I started to get frustated with the manager neglect. I made a lot new friends with other guests and got some gift from them too, but the work team and management was not good. Manager dont really care about the volunteers. Hostel is full of mold I left ONE DAY earlier after got disrespected by the host.

Even though I kept telling you what to do for mistakes you have made, you always seemed annoyed and just made excuses. Why should I be nice to you? You were very rude to the guests, and there’s even a bad review mentioning that the staff wasn’t kind on the exact day you were working there’s proof go check.
Also, stop badmouthing other volunteers on Instagram. Everyone who worked here knows that you were the only problem.
You seem to have a delusional mindset.

I stayed one month at the Hostel. Bad Experiences: -really bad mold in the room -no real a kitchen -no common area -not suitable for vegans Good experiences -Doable work -the volunteers were all really nice (but they obviously change throughout the time) -Good location, subway station and bus station is near I didn't get to know the manager as he wasn't there when I got to the hostel, but also didn't introduced himself to me later. It seemed like he didn't really care about me neither the other volunteers. Especially because the mold in the room.

How am i supposed to know if you are vegan or not? You did not tell me 🤦‍♂️, if you told me i would have bought you food for vegan.
And you did not ask me any questions about common area or if we have kitchen. The only questions that you asked me is what happens when you get sick.

Had a good experience at the hostel! Noel is a friendly and relaxed manager, and you can ask him anything. The hours working are less so you have enough time to expore South Korea.
