Zaza Backpackers Hostel — Hotel in Seoul

First of all and most important I think is this place is worth the money you paid. To get to the place, from Incheon airport you can just take the airport limousine and get down at myeongdong station. It will cost around 17k won (as of Dec 24). From there, you see the Pacific hotel and use the left side road and walk up a bit. After the Kampungku restaurant, just walk up a little further and you'll see the place signboard. Not so far from the nearest subway station and also very close to Myeongdong area. I booked the place for three nights. The person at the counter can speak good English, even the owner Mr. Min also speaks good English so it was very easy to communicate or get information. They also have WhatsApp for anything you want to ask and makes the communication even easier!! Thank you 😊. Our room was equipped with microwave, fridge, washing machine and tv. They provide only small towels but you can request for big towels with deposit. Toiletries like toothpaste, tooth brush, shampoo, soaps and shower gel are available for take aways everyday. The common room in the basement was a cool place to hang out after a long day out. They have cooking induction, microwave and even iron and iron board there as well. So convenient! I think not so many places I've been provided iron facilities. There was no elevator in the hostel unfortunately so if you have lots of luggage and bags, good luck with that. 😬. Not so far from the place, you can find gs25 and cu mart. So it is very convenient in case you want to find simple food and drinks. Overall, I think I like the place and will come here again on...

I loved everything about this place. The room was big and spacious. Everything I needed was in the room (a big fridge, microwave, washer). The room smelt really good too. Actually, the moment you enter the building, there is a very pleasant scent which I thought was a pleasant welcome. I couldn't hear any noise from other guest in the other rooms. My room was quiet and peaceful even when I had the windows opened. The bathroom was big as well and had a shower curtain to demarcate the toilet. They provided some essentials like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste which I thought was really thoughtful of them but I didn't use them cos I brought mine. They also provided a towel (not big enough to wrap your body if that's what you are looking for) The bed was hard and perfect for me. I slept really well after a long day's walk. Woke up refreshed and ready to go the next day. The location was perfect and pretty easy to find. Alot of convenience stores and food places around. Close to subways, bus stations, Myeondong market and Nandemun market. Walkable distance to most places. I meant the owner a few times at the reception and he was kind and answered all my questions politely. On my last day, it was raining heavily and I was allowed to stay until the rain stopped which was really very kind of them. If the three places I stayed at, this was by far the best. I can't recommend this place enough and will definitely be back here on...

I stayed at Zaza’s for 3 nights and came away very impressed. ||1. Service was excellent, with Min and Yoon going out of their way to support me, including a switch to a double bed room (I’d booked a twin room) with a better bathroom. They also arranged a very reasonably priced transfer from airport to Zaza’s (75,000KRW). |2. The rooms are small, but everything you could need if you are only coming back to sleep / rest. |3. The location is great, feels like a genuine Korean laneway and the modern shopping district is a 3 minute walk.||Considerations:|I. This isn’t a party hostel, I observed that people more use it as cheap accomodation than socialising. It’s quiet as a result. |II. Stairs to get to and from rooms (unless on ground floor): you need an average level of fitness.|III. Put a 10,000KRW deposit down and get a large towel. The standard ones are a western hand...
