Very dirty. They don't clean there at all. I don't recommend staying there. Mold, trash, dirty floors, a messy dining room-kitchen. How people live there, 10 people at a time, is completely incomprehensible. I just ran away from there.

駅近です。 でも、ホテル周辺がスラム街?って雰囲気です。 チェックインはパソコンで自分でするタイプ。 靴を入口にある部屋番の箱に入れるのですが、鍵もないので盗まれそうで怖かったので部屋に持って入ってました。 部屋は開けた瞬間、一人暮らしの男子学生の匂い。 男臭くて、すぐにダイソーに行って消臭スプレーとデュフューザーを買いました。 原因はベッドシーツも布団カバーも枕カバーも交換されてない事だとすぐ分かりました。 シーツにはシミとカピカピしたものが付着。 トイレバスは狭く、シャワーに問題はないですがトイレは狭すぎて175cmくらいあると普通には座れるないと思います。 タオルは好きなだけ使えて、柔軟剤の匂いがしたのでタオルを敷いて寝ました。 部屋の掃除は行き届いてなく、共有スペースも汚そうだったので使ってません。モーニング無料も怖くて手が出せない感じでした。 節約には良いです。 空調やプロジェクターなども問題なく使えました。 安いので仕方ないのですが、建物の古さや立地の環境は仕方ないにしても、ベッドシーツと布団の不衛生さで、サービスの悪さと質の悪さが際立ち多分もう利用しないと思います。

The iron bed has a thin mattress. The bunk bed is not safe and wobbly. It is very crowded.

I stayed in a room with around 14 other people. The room was in the basement and there was visible mold on the ceilings. Furthermore, the dorm only had one bathroom, which was a combination of a toilet and and shower. Additionally if you do go shower, you have to fetch a towel from the entrance. If you have the money, go somewhere else in Seoul - there are plenty of better choices than Yakorea. Positive sidenote: Close to a metro station.
