The bar was very nice, lots of people go there at night from the hostel. The rooms are comfortable and everything is clean and tidy

Close to all the tourist sites Each room has a bathroom

Staff need training/educating. When I arrived before check in time to drop my bag off, I asked a staff member what she recommended I see. She couldn't think of a single thing and pointed me in the opposite direction to where everything is. When I checked in, I asked the manager where the train station is so I could book my ticket, he didn't know where the train station was! Staff seemed more interested in socialising with each other than helping/interacting with guests. Breakfast was basic and staff began packing up at bang on 10:00am, even when guests were still eating/using facilities. The reviews promote a great atmosphere, but that was non-existant when I was there - but that comes down to who is staying there at the time.

I had a fantastic time at the Hostel. Kaze, the owner, is super friendly and has good energy which made the place feel very welcoming and social. You can tell by his personality that he's been travelling for many years. We had some great talks. The location is perfect for those who want to be centrally located. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The hangout area is huge and relaxing and offers many things to do. There is a big kitchen that you can use, which is really nice. The staff and also Kaze's friends are very friendly and inviting. I recommend Doobaki for anyone who wants a chill hostel experience.

Auberge très sympa. Idéal pour papoter avec d’autres voyageurs.

Ein kleines Frühstück (Toast, Cornflakes, Kaffee, Saft) ist inklusive. Ein kleines Bier in der Bar nebenan ist ebenfalls inklusive. Hostel/Bar bieten kleine Speise und Snacks an (sehr zu empfehlen). Bettwäsche und Badezimmer war nicht neu, aber sauber.

Obwohl Bettwäsche und Bad sauber waren, müsste der Ort mal gründlich gereinigt werden. In meinem Zimmer waren diverse Sachen und dem Bett (Haarbürste, Taschentücher...). Der Tisch im Gemeinschaftsbereich klebt dauerhaft. Das Personal ist zwar nett, aber man hat den Eindruck Sie arbeiten nur das Nötigste. Kein Fahrstuhl (lasst das schwere Gepäck zu Hause).

The location is just perfect, around the corner from the main sights. The room was spacious enough, everything was clean. and the staff is very nice and friendly.

간만에 여행자들과 어울릴 수 있는 호스텔에 묵어서 좋았습니다. 아마 해외배낭여행을 좀 하셨던 분들은 그리운 느낌을 받으실 호스텔입니다.

아쉽게도 코를 심하게 고시는 분이 제방이어서.. 귀마개는 꼭 챙겨가세요. 아무래도 도미토리 이용하면 겪게되는 상황이라 운입니다.

The check-in was quick and easy. There is a breakfast available in the morning, you can use the fridge and the kitchen for your own use. There is a room underground to play games or read. The beds have curtains and the room as AC, a fan, small lockers, and a hairdryer. The hostel is nicely located with a street market a few steps away.

There is no key for the bedroom main door (but there are lockers inside the room) so the door is never locked. It often happened that people were opening it. I don't know if it's the cleaning crew or people mistaken but it doesn't feel safe to see your bedroom door opened every hour. There is only one table for the breakfast and it's easily crowded considering how many people can stay at the hostel. There is not enough room for everyone.

Habitación amplia, limpia, cerca del centro y del bus para ir a la estación. El sitio estaba muy bien con bastantes cosas que hacer . Nos dieron una cerveza de bienvenida, eso nos encantó. Volveremos sin duda

La chica de la recepción nos vio llegar y ni se levantó del sofa a atendernos, pensábamos que era una huésped. Ni dijo Hola, muy poco educada. Las toallas para ducharnos eran se manos, enanas, tuvimos que pedir 3 .

全部！みんな暖かい！Thanks bro!

ないぜ！

Located five minutes from the city center and comfortable beds without curtains unfortunately. Staff is friendly and they offer free breakfast

There was a drunk person in the common area disturbing several guest which was quiet uncomfortable and staff didn’t said anything or removed him from the hostel whilst he was clearly not staying there

Excellent, quirky hostel in the historic town of Gyeongju. The owner has created a wonderful environment for travellers and backpackers, with a seriously well-equipped common area/kitchen and a chill-out basement that is just so cool. Rooms are basic but tidy and clean, bathrooms likewise. Plus there are two cats! No complaints.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Doobaki Hostel in Gyeongju for three nights, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. The host, an amazing person with a wealth of stories, made me feel incredibly welcome from the moment I arrived. One of the standout aspects of Doobaki Hostel is its sociable atmosphere, making it easy to connect with fellow travelers and make new friends. The common areas provided the perfect setting for engaging conversations and shared experiences, fostering a sense of camaraderie among guests. Cleanliness is crucial for me when choosing accommodation, and Doobaki Hostel certainly didn't disappoint. The facilities were spotless, and the attention to detail in maintaining a clean environment was evident throughout. Located in the heart of the town, the hostel's location couldn't have been better. I was within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, and shops, which made exploring Gyeongju a breeze. Another highlight was the delightful breakfast served at Doobaki Hostel. Starting my day with a good meal set the tone for an enjoyable day of sightseeing and adventure. I highly recommend Doobaki Hostel to anyone visiting Gyeongju. The warm and welcoming host, sociable atmosphere, cleanliness, and excellent location all contributed to making my stay truly memorable. I can't wait to return in the future and create more cherished memories at Doobaki Hostel. Motorcycle man! Thank you again!!!! 🇲🇦🙏

Great place for backpackers. It is good value, lovely owners and located near bus stops and the bus terminal. The decor is dated and breakfast is basic (but there's peanut butter!) however these help keep the costs low. The volunteers working at the hostel were also nice. The kitchen was well-equipped and there will never be a shortage of plates there. Spacious basement lounge area.

It's on a main road so be prepared for traffic noise. Wifi was temperamental.

This was a great hostel, with a very helpful staff, free coffee, and free breakfast. It was also the cheapest hostel in the area. Most importantly, it felt like a real hostel and I met other cool travellers there.

First of all, they changed my bed and threw all my stuff on it . crazy But I didn't complain... At night after a small problem in the dorm, the owner became very agressive and immediately called the police He wanted also to call my embassy, block my passeport. Etc When the police came he pushed too much to try to fire me. At the end the police understood and i had a private room for free.

so good~highly recommended!

Excellent interior, vibe, theme and location.

Doesn’t really operate like a traveller’s guesthouse. The host isn’t flexible at all, services are of a guesthouse but the rules are like those of hotels.

The manager is amazing. He gave great recomandations and he care about having fun and feel comfortable.

Location, good value for money, clean and comfy

An amazing guesthouse! Super comfortable and clean with a great location and perfect breakfast!!! The owner Kaze really has a great sense of hospitality and has the cutest cats! We absolutely loved this guesthouse and will come back for sure!

The boss is so lovely! He's a traveller himself and has lots of interesting stories to tell. We have drinks together at night and it seems like he really built this place to create somewhere with this conviviality vibe where travellers can meet and exchange stories. He's also consciously keeping his prices low so that backpackers like himself can travel low budget. He's such a nice person!
