My stay at Philstay Myeongdong Station - Hostel was fantastic! The super helpful staff, including Jang and Aiden, made everything even better. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the shopping district, which made getting around Seoul a breeze. However, the bathroom was quite tiny, and the room could feel small with a lot of luggage (good thing I traveled light!). Overall, I had a great time and would definitely return!
