The place is amazing. I get somehow with shared accommodation as a black woman but I was so comfortable at Nomad, I wanted to extend my stay. Everything is provided all you’ll need is a change of clothes😂😂 next time I’ll travel light because toiletries are available and also breakfast.

I've traveled all over the world, and this was one of my favorite places to stay. The staff is amazing. I have never experience people so helpful, and thoughtful. The kind and thoughtful Japanese woman, and I believe, it was the woman owner, they both went above and beyond, I am very thankful to have stayed here. The breakfast was delicious, the room/bathroom was very spacious and clean with all the amenities you could need. Free laundry, and a lovely common area to eat or relax. The bed was comfortable, great water pressure, and great air conditioning. The location is perfect, close to the train station, food and shopping. Thank you for being so kind and helping me when I wasn't feeling well. I highly recommend staying here. I can't wait to return.

I keep coming back here! I have been to many places/guest houses/hostels/rooms in South Korea. But this pension is simply unique, because of the service of the staff, the hygiene and the facilities. Because they are loft beds, you can choose where you want to sleep in your own room. And it just makes you feel like you are in South Korea. The spaces are not as small as others I've stayed in. And everything you need is there or available.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The dorm sizes were quite large, and I liked that the floors are gender-separated. The bathrooms and showers were always clean. The common area is great for meeting people, the wifi works throughout the hostel, and it is overall in a great location!
