It was a good stay at Ara125. The staff are friendly and helpful especially Joon.
The place is very clean. Room was a bit small but still ok. Breakfast was great.
Good location. Will recommend to friends.

B&B/ hostel located at the end/ start of Myeondong busy street, so less noisy, but beware of cars/cabs driving into the road. 5 min walk from Euljiro 1 train station (Hana Bank as landmark). Lift is fast to get to level 6. Room is cute and cosy, super love the bedding, stools, mini racks, tv etc. Basic toilteries & room slippers provided. Bathroom is compact, just nice for 1 person. Pantry is great with endless supply of Indomee (halal for muslim customers), instant noodles, eggs, bread, jam, peanut butter, cheese & grapes. Has common dining room to eat together. Water dispenser available at pantry, weighing machine, recycling dustbins available at corridor. Staff are very friendly and always helpful. Would stay here again!

Great hosel, very well located, close to the subway station. Lots of street stores nearby. Also shopping mall, restaurants. I had a very good experience in there. Hostel attendants are very kind and friendly with requests. Hostel care about visitors asking for silence and providing food support even for late use. I will definitely return!

Ara125 is in an excellent location at a quiet street but just a stroll from the MyeongDong shopping area and night market. It's so convenient to get to /from the airport. If you have bigger luggage use the elevator at exit 5 of Eulijiro 1-ga station and walk across the slip road and turn to your left. It's a 5-min walk. If you like fried chicken, BHC Chicken is just round the corner!

Super central and next to the metro. Small room, but sufficient and not very noisy. Breakfast with toast and butter and jam, coffee, etc. Good place for a few days.

The room was clean and the owner was kind, so I had a comfortable stay.
The location was good, and it was close to both Myeongdong Station and Euljiro 1ga Station, so I could go sightseeing as soon as I left the hotel.
However, I was concerned that there were no tissues in the room.

It's in a very convenient location, close to the station and Olive Young.
The room was clean, but the only negative thing was that there was a strong smell of paint or something.
The staff spoke Japanese and were friendly and smiling, so I was able to stay there with peace of mind.
Thank you.

The location is in Myeongdong, with convenient transportation and shopping. It is also close to duty-free shops and there are many restaurants around. The room is clean and tidy. It is a good accommodation experience and worth recommending.

The elder who watched the guest out was very cute. Can speak English, pay attention to directions, nice room, clean enough. There is a bathroom in the room. Complete equipment Importantly, the location is very good. Went shopping around Myeongdong, taking things up to store in the room. Then continue walking Importantly, it's very close to the airport bus stop and subway. Just walk 2-5 minutes. Importantly, it is close to many delicious restaurants. There's still olives nearby.

The location was very convenient as it was in the middle of Myeongdong and close to the station. Another plus point is that it was quiet.

The hotel facilities are rudimentary and there is no hot water boiler. You often have to go out to the elevator to get drinking water. It is cold and you have to walk down a corridor to get a cup of hot water, which is quite frustrating! There is no bathtub or shower curtain in the bathroom, and the water from the shower makes the toilet and toilet paper wet! There are a lot of old stains on the inside of the bathroom door! Breakfast only provides rice noodles, eggs (raw), cheese and cup noodles! Guests are required to cook their own meals! The tea room is small, so it would be inconvenient if two or three more guests come to have breakfast! The overall situation is not ideal, the price is not proportional to the services provided, and there is no room to consider staying here again!
