Great place if you have never been to Korea. Myeongdong has a lot of places to eat and shop. The buses and subways are right out the door too. Place is extremely clean and comfortable. The staff are always super friendly and helpful. Feel very safe there as a solo female traveler. I have stayed here three times and always satisfied. Definitely would recommend to a new traveler in Korea and need something easy.
I really enjoyed my time at OYO5. My favourite part was definitely the staff — Suzie and Jun were the stars of the show! They were so lovely, helpful and caring, and honestly made me feel so welcome from the moment I arrived. They quickly became more like friends than hostel staff, and made my stay in Seoul even more special. I’m so grateful I got to meet them and would definitely stay here again! ❤️
It was definitely close to stores and places to eat. Very nice if you want to be by the crowds, and it was easy to find. The staff spoke English as well so that was helpful. They also had towels so that was nice to not have to think about.
Great place. Very very safe for a female solo traveler. Nice area a lot to do. Very easy to use the subway and bus from that area. Or if you need to KTX it’s not far at all. Staff was very polite. Rooms and beds are spacious. Only downfall you have to keep all your stuff in a separate locker area which can make getting ready in the morning a little hard. But over all not a problem.

Liked: Staff & service
I stayed in the 6 bed female dorm, and the room was shockingly quiet. The bed was comfortable and gave a level of privacy with a curtain that pulled close. They also had a minimal breakfast in the morning and the staff were nice and helpful. It was also in a good location. My main issue with this place was the cleanliness in the bathroom… it was most often NOT clean, which is very weird, because my other problem with this place was that the staff came into the room at least 3 times throughout the day to clean and mess with the ac and air units every day. That was not ideal when I was trying to sleep and recover from jet lag, but if they can go into the rooms that much, they can go into the bathroom more and clean it better. Also, like stated in other reviews, the bathroom does smell, and right when you walk into the property does too. Oh and I almost forgot my other biggest complaint - in the main sitting and kitchen area, it’s full of mosquitos!! You can’t actually sit out there without getting attacked by them. They were worse inside than anywhere I went outside, and sometimes they do make it into the room. With all that said, overall the place was fine enough, depending on what you’re looking for. Some good things, some not so good things. I would potentially stay there again, but only as a last resort.
I had a great stay at Oyo, big plus was location with walking distance for shopping and dining and also to the Namsan Cable Park - Namsan Park is a must while in Seoul!
Located centrally in a quiet area. Very close to transport options. Inclusive breakfast was adequate. Rooftop nice. Lots of nearby supermarket opsitons.
Only criticism was needing to walk through reception/lounge area to get to bathrooms from dorm rooms.
We’re very much satisfied with our stay at Oyo. The only problem we encounter was it doesn’t have an elevator. We came with a 79 y/o parent & was a bit disappointed when we found out that it doesn’t have an elevator. The lift is only for luggages. But other than that we’re ok. Good thing our senior was able to manage it. Overall, we’ll stay again at this hostel. Thank you!
