Excellent Stay
Great location, Nice n helpful people and definitely clean and aesthetic rooms
Average Stay
The staff on site was excellent, really supportive and helpful and went above above and beyond but overall the place could use a lot of improvement in terms of basic facilities like geyser, hygiene products (soap etc), cleanliness of the facility especially bathroom. It is undergoing renovation so assuming the broken things will be repaired but overall approach from management seems lacking and not providing adequate or basic facilities to guests.
average experience
The hostel is good but washrooms are not cleaned properly plus they don’t allow to sit outside with friends .
Experience at Soul as a solo traveller
Dorms and washrooms were clean and tidy. But the washroom was not connected to the dorm and common for the whole hostel. Also no in house cafe even for tea/coffee and no activities whatsoever for the vibe

Stay was good. Rooms were very clean and hospitality was good. Hostel staff suggested many places to visit and they had contact numbers of essential people which helps a lot. Only point they should improve is to introduce game zone. That will help solo travellers to socialise.
