Rose Inn

“The location is best, the hostel is nice and cozy and the staff is very hospitable.”

Breakfast wasn’t included, but the location was 100% the best way to experience the lively area full of locals, mostly university students. With so many eateries in that cool alleyway, I didn’t need to travel far for authentic Korean food. The hotel is tucked away in a small alley, just a few steps from the busier main road and the lively strip. A big shower towel would have been enough, you should be told before arrival that outside guests aren’t allowed, and there were no signs or rules for quiet hours during the night.

“Great location, but a very expensive prison cell – cramped, poorly ventilated and terrible value for”

The location was excellent, with plenty of restaurants, cafés and shops within easy walking distance. It was a great base for exploring Seoul, and we enjoyed discovering the many local restaurants in the surrounding streets. The room was remarkably quiet—almost like being inside a bunker! The beds were reasonably comfortable, and the shared kitchen upstairs was useful, especially the washing machine. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives ended. The room felt like a very expensive prison cell: tiny, with virtually no storage for luggage or clothes, constantly tripping over our own stuff. It was cramped and uncomfortable for two people. The bathroom smelled strongly of must, like mould, though we couldn’t see any. No window to open, so we had to keep the AC running all day just to make the room bearable. We were worried about air quality and potential health risks of staying in such a poorly ventilated room. The whole experience felt more like a prison cell than a hotel room. It was quiet, but that’s expected when you’re sleeping in a sealed bunker. What made it especially disappointing was the price. It wasn’t cheap accommodation, and we expected far better for what we paid. We’ve travelled extensively across Asia and stayed in many types of accommodation, including budget hotels, but this was a particularly poor value for money. We definitely wouldn’t stay here again and would strongly recommend looking elsewhere, especially at this price point.

“Lovely stay, perfect for female solo travelers!”

The location was ideal, right in a bustling college area and just a few blocks from a train station. The staff were extremely helpful, professional, attentive, and kind. The room was clean, towels were refreshed daily, and basic toiletries were provided. This stay was an emergency replacement because my original booking fell through, so I appreciated the last‑minute accommodation while I was scrambling. I wasn’t prepared for how small the room was, but that’s not the fault of Rose Inn.

The hotel offered great amenities: a hair dryer and straightener, a fridge, fresh water bottles delivered daily, and clean towels each day. The staff responded quickly whenever I needed something, even in the middle of the night, and they were very kind. The location was excellent, close to train and bus stations. The only downside was the lack of an elevator. The rooms were small but manageable, and I’ve stayed in smaller ones before. Towels were only small, and the shower was part of the toilet, though at least it was private for each room.

“Clean and comfortable rooms. Good response time from staff and amazing facilities.”

The rooms were very nice and clean, with everything brand new, including the facilities. The location was very easy to find.
