Great choice if prioritising location and price
Pros:

great location, helpful staff

Cons:

The top bunk bed has no protection from light in the room as there is no “roof”, would be nice to be able to at least preference which bed one would prefer (top vs bottom). So if someone decided to come in at 3am and another wake up at 6am and turn on the lights, you are not getting much sleep - maybe a complimentary eye cover could help solve the issue. Also the beds in the middle of the room (unlike the ones by the walls) have no shelves to at least put your phone on overnight when charging which is fine for a few days

Perfect location near Dongdaemun subway station and lot of bus connections. Close by shopping centers. In walking distance to DDP and Dongdaemun gate. Very clean. In winter we could use heating, which was great.

Cons:

nothing

The shower room in the dorm would be better with a space for clothes.
Pros:

六人住的宿舍房型空間很精簡,對於只是要梳洗睡覺的人住起來算舒適,衛浴的部分有一間只有馬桶的廁所、一間洗手台連著蓮蓬頭的淋浴間、還有一間比較大間的完整衛浴,這次入住期間的室友們都很剛好錯過彼此的洗漱時間,所以使用上無大礙,個人空間也很足夠(有可上鎖的直立式置物櫃以及位於完整衛浴那間旁邊的開放櫃一格)

交通與地點方便,附近也有些可以簡單一人吃飯的餐廳,很適合短程要省錢且獨自旅行的人來住六人共用房間。
Pros:

自助入住很方便,不用受限於櫃檯人員的上班時間。女生六人房內有兩套衛浴與廁所,很方便,不用怕有人在上廁所會需要等很久。有公用廚房很方便,但是建議公用廚房可以放衛生紙,有時候有急用找不到衛生紙有點困擾。

Cons:

女生六人房兩邊靠牆的床位都有置物櫃,為什麼中間的那排床位沒有置物櫃? 很不方便,而且走道擺滿已經入住的人的行李箱,占用到中間床位的空間,希望可以有明確規範大家行李箱放置的地方。且明明規定不行在房間內講電話、看影片時要用耳機,但是我入住期間隔壁的上下舖完全沒有遵守。
建議房間使用規定,應該要貼在門口明顯處,大家進來才能第一時間看到,我都是要退房才發現,都來不及跟隔壁床的反應,請他出去講電話。

便利。
Pros:

場所がいいです
繁華街に、近くて
少しだけ離れていて休むにもいいと思います

Cons:

部屋に湯沸かしがないくらいですが、給湯機へ行けばあるし、近ければ良いと思います。使わないひとは気にしないのでしょう。
コンセントがUSB充電できるところが1つでもあると助かります。
