Crib49

It's a great place to stay in Seoul. Quiet street, 5 minutes to the subway. Pleasant atmosphere and responsive staff.

The ladies who work there are so sweet and really go above and beyond to help! They gave us a kick ass kbbq recommendation, did way more than necessary to help us with laundry, and genuinely CARED about us! I felt like a kid in an Asian mom's household all over again. Rooms are spacious and clean. Showers are the kind that are right on top of the toilet with no separate stall, but no big deal. One important thing to note: this hostel is at the top of a HUGE STEEP hill. Like, cars had trouble driving up. If you have a heavy bag or are physically unable to get up the hill, it might be worth it to take a taxi from the subway station to the hotel. email the hostel and then can give you instructions for a taxi to drop you off at the main road at the top of the hill.

nice place with the nice environment. they are so welcoming. free foods n drinks.. you can have the view of seoul tower at the roof top

Crib 49 is a great place. It's a real treat so close to everything.

WORST HOTEL EVER. I showed up for my reservation around 6pm and there was noone at the hotel. I knocked for 20 minutes and rang the bell, no answer. Later on, they emailed me saying they were going to charge a late penalty too. WORST SERVICE EVER. Also, the location is in a dirty, narrow alleyway in the middle of no where.
