The staff were very helpful and kind. However the value for money was not there in our opinion. The first room we were in was a very small double with no windows and we paid nearly $400 AUD for that night. We were not expecting fancy accommodation but certainly expected more for that price. The booking did not mention no windows, in fact we recall it showing windows in the photos. The second room that they moved us too on night two at least had a nice outlook and was a little more private. The laundry facilities were very good. Commercial grade and fast and 24/7 access. The accommodation is very dated and there is no security or card swipes to come in other than your room. The location was right in amongst the hustle Myeongdong, which is what we wanted, but for the amount we paid, we would choose somewhere else next time.

At the USD $50 or so price point, then very good value. But not so much if the walk-in price is $75 or above. Very clean rooms although common areas are shabbier. Good breakfast included. Very hard to find so be sure to get a diagram showing which small streets to walk down from after getting off subway exit 8. Next to Royal Hotel for frame of reference. Great location once hotel is found.
Set back behind two street buildings (Royal Hotel being one).

Hard to find, (2 floors of a commercial building) overpriced for a ‘Hostel’. It should not be called a hotel. It is very much a hostel. Rundown, tiny room with no shower and a small uncomfortable double bed. Loud Music outside our room every night! Breakfast was average at best. Toast and cereal and then had to wash our own dishes. To pay over $150AUD a night was a ripoff. I certainly won’t be recommending the Step Inn.
