A no-frills property, in a great location, that is well run by friendly and accommodating staff. Shared areas are being cleaned regularly and I had no problem spending a few nights there in a solo room and would consider it again for a budget stay.

Aroha is a classic hostel close to Seoul Station. I had a room rather than a dormitory and found it small but quite good. The neighborhood seemed safe. It was quiet and the simple breakfast was adequate for a traveler. The facility is older but well maintained. Internet was excellent. The proprietor, Jay, really cares about his guests and is very hard working. Aroha is located off of a side street and at the end of a short alley. You can see the green Aroha sign from the street. Tip: If you are arriving at Seoul Station, use station exit #12. It will put you on the sidewalk close to a brick walkway which goes up to the street where Aroha is.

Stayed 5 nights. Owner communicates well when you have a question. My room was tiny. There was a table, chair, lamp and a single bed. There was a rack to hang clothes by the foot of the bed, and whats left of the floor space was just enough to open a small-medium suitcase. Location is a 2-3 minute walk to Seoul subway station (Line 4) and 2 stations away and you’re in Myeondong. Maybe 3-4 minutes when going back to the house as its slightly up a slope. 7-eleven is a few steps away. Cleanliness is okay. Steep and low-ceiling steps to go up and down to the kitchen and common room (located in basement). Breakfast was brewed coffee, juice, teas, toasted bread butter and jam. Water dispenser on all floors. Fresh towels available everyday. Overall for the price i paid , its okay- just remember its a guesthouse not a hotel. But verything you need is there. I’m happy with it.

서울역 12번 게이트에서 나오면 금방이라 위치가 너무 좋았고요, 객실 내부도 깔끔하고 각 방마다 햇빛이 잘 들어와서 막힌 느낌이 없었고, 밤에 잘때에도 주택가처럼 너무 조용해서 잠도 잘잤습니다.지하 1층의 조식 코너도 잘 준비되어 아침 먹으면서 커피 한잔도 할수 있어서 여러가지로 좋았습니다. 추가로 지하 1층에 프린터가 있어서 서류 프린트를 할때도 밖에 안나가도 되니 정말 편리하였습니다. 저는 3층에 묶었는데 3층 입구에 별도 냉장고가 있어서 밖에서 사가지고 온 식품 보관도 편리하게 하였네요..감사합니다..

일단 서울역에 가까워서 좋습니다. 화장실의 경우 폼클렌징,샴푸,바디워시,치약 전부 다 비치되어 있으며 수건도 많아서 칫솔만 가지고 오시면 되고 물의 경우 정수기가 있지만 3층은 물이 안 나와서 2층에서 마셨고 종이컵 불편하니 텀블러 가지고 가시면 좋겠네요. 방음은 잘 되는 편인지는 모르겠습니다. 그리고 아침 조식은 시리얼,우유,식빵,딸기잼,버터잼 이렇게 비치되어있고 컴퓨터하고 프린터기 있으니 사용하시면 되겠습니다. 저는 괜찮은 숙소라고 생각합니다
