Yims House has such good reviews simply because of its great host, Mr Hyo. He is a nice, friendly and pleasant chap and will readily provide any assistance in terms of sightseeing places and food joints. If you intend to stay with Mr Hyo, who runs the hostel with his mom, take his recommendation to try the buffet BBQ dinner which is less than 10 minutes walk away from the hostel. It is delicious and most of all, it is cheap - only 9,000 won per pax, beer at 2,000 per bottle and it comes with complimentary coffee and ice-cream to round up your meal. The complimentary breakfast that comes with the stay, though simple, (bread with butter and jam, cereal and coffee/tea) is enough to fill your tummy till lunch time and they do not restrict you on the portions. The hostel is also within walking distance to the surrounding attractions and fresh market and other seafood outlets. Definitely a good place to stay.

Safe and very quiet place. Decent place too. Good location near the bus stop when taking the 6011 bus to Incheon Airport, near subways so easily connected and very near palaces of interest.

Yims House Hotel is best for travelers who want to save on accommodation expenses. Location is also perfect since it is walking distance from the top tourist spots in Seoul like the famous old palaces as well as the shopping districts. You just have to go out of the hotel to have something for your stomach though as it does not have a restaurant. You may also be surprised (it happened to me) that you would not get the kind of room facilities as what is seen in the website. I was expecting a Western-style bed complete with a bed frame and cushion but we were only provided with a mat. So it's like sleeping on the floor.

It was during winter time, the room is a bit cold. Easy access to airport limousine. 5 minutes walk from subway, not so easy to find for first timer, but owner is very kind to assist - just remember to give them a call for help. Easy to access to nearby area e.g. MyeongDong and Namdemun through nearby local bus stop
