Sinchon Gaon Hostel

Unclaimed

I have not taken pictures but I hope these descriptions I provide can help for any newer/NERVOUS travellers. As other people have said, there is probably a new company that took over so renovations are quite fresh. You check in via the tall VERY noticeable yellow building. The receptionist was quite nice and he is situated right in front of the luggage storage (very practical for if you land early aka most cheap flights and you just need to leave luggage before visiting around and checking in later). Check in is at 3:00pm. I lived in the building next to the main building in room 606. Room was clean and very comfortable, great ac. Just make sure you turn on the heater which is close to the floor to get hot water (it heats up the floor at the same time). It was not bad here as there are elevators so people on vacations with large large suitcases are accommodating. I also have to say, there is a GS25 (convenience store) right next to the hotel which is AMAZING. Great, cheap breakfast! The subways are a bit farther though and it is an area with loads of ups and downs which was essentially the only downside for me. Last but not least, my biggest pet peeve, restroom. It was clean. Amazing.

I actually love the place and the vibe. ? It’s beside the yellow building. And very near Sinchon station, sinchon shopping street, emart, olive young, etc. Staff were also friendly and approachable.

韓國四天自由行，2人住宿 ?位置：新村地鐵站6號或8號出口 ⚠️住宿距離新村地鐵站很近，走6號出口（6號出口旁邊有電梯）跟8號出口（用導航走的話要爬坡！，但8號出口旁邊很多小吃）都可以，從6號出口出來順著方向走先不要過馬路，看到左手邊有7-11、右手邊有Kia的時候往Kia方向過馬路走進巷子，在GS25旁邊就到了 ?房間：大小中等，浴室乾濕分離，櫃檯人員會提供中文須知也能中文對話，連續住宿未滿5晚不會打掃房間，但每天把垃圾包好放在房間門外就會有人收，垃圾袋/牙刷/牙膏/肥皂/毛巾可從一樓拿新的，電梯旁邊也有丟髒毛巾的簍子。 看有人反應隔音不太好，個人覺得還行，只有第四天早上有聽到別人拖行李的聲音，其他時間都沒隔音問題，但如果對聲音超級敏感或超級淺眠的人可能要帶耳塞。

Convenient location, hotel owner is very enthusiastic. My room was comfortable for 3 people. There is also GS25 right at the door. I really like it and will come back.
