Step Inn Myeongdong 1

Oh my goodness! I was so lucky to choose this hostel. I originally booked a room with two single beds and a private bathroom, but the front desk upgraded me directly to a triple room with one queen bed and one single bed – it was fantastic! It was also very close to the elevator, and there's a luggage scale available in the hallway. Downstairs, there's a huge Olive Young (pharmacy/beauty store), right in the heart of Myeongdong. Across the street, there's a convenience store and the delicious Sinseon Seolleongtang, so everything you need is super convenient. The hostel offers a simple breakfast; personally, I didn't find it particularly delicious, but it was acceptable. You have to wash your own dishes after eating, and the hygiene conditions are excellent. The front desk service was also very enthusiastic and spoke English. I recommend booking two months in advance for more choices and better prices.

The hotel's location is excellent, making it convenient to get anywhere. The night market's lively atmosphere in the evenings is fantastic, and it feels very safe even when returning to the hotel late. The breakfast is also good, and there are many trendy restaurants nearby.

If it's your first time staying here and you arrive late at night, the entrance might be a bit hard to find, but the location is very convenient. The free breakfast was also quite substantial.
