For now, here's what's useful to know in advance:
⸻

Check-out is by 10:00 AM.
⸻
📍 Location
Getting here is easy:
✈️ Airport Bus
- The airport bus stop at Dongdaemun History & Culture Park is a 10-minute walk from the hostel.
🚇 Subway
- Sindang Station (Exit 8) – 2-3 min walk (Lines 2 & 6)
- Sindang Station (Exit 11-1) – 6 min walk (Lines 2 & 6) *Elevator access — recommended if you have heavy luggage*
- Cheonggu Station (Exit 1) – 6 min walk (Line 5) *Elevator access*
- Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station (Exit 3) – 9 min walk (Lines 2, 4 & 5) *Escalator access*
🚕 Taxi
- We don't really recommend taking a taxi from the airport — it costs a lot more than the airport bus or subway.
- If you do take one (or ask locals for directions), showing this Korean address helps:
"서울시 중구 무학동 32-2"

🧳 Luggage
∙ There’s no elevator in the building (as noted in our listing).

If you have any questions, feel free to message us anytime :)
✨ Check-in Guide ✨
Hi again!
Your check-in is today — here's what to know before you arrive :)
- Self check-in is available from 4:00 PM.
- Floors 3 and 4 are female-only dormitory floors, and Room 501 is a male-only dormitory.
- The stairwell bathrooms on Floor 1.5 and Floor 4.5 are shared by everyone.
- During cleaning hours (11 AM - 4 PM), a staff member of the opposite gender may need to come in to clean.
📍 Directions and our map link are in the first message we sent you.
⸻
📋 House Rules
🔇 Noise & quiet hours
- Please keep noise to a minimum after 10 PM.
- Phone and video calls — please step outside to the stairwell hallway.
- If you're watching videos on your phone, please use earphones.
- Even if you're staying with friends, please remember this is a shared space with other guests. We aim to keep a calm and quiet atmosphere — if conversations get long, please continue them outside.
🧦 Dormitory & shared spaces
- Please switch to slippers before entering the dormitory area.
- No outside guests are allowed inside the dormitory area.
- Please keep shared spaces clean and tidy.
🍽️ Food & drinks
- Please enjoy food and drinks in the basement area only.
🗑️ Trash & recycling
- Trash bins are in the stairwell hallway, just outside the main door. Please take your trash there — not inside the dormitory area.
- Good news — you don't need to sort your trash for recycling. Korea's recycling rules can be confusing for visitors, so we sort everything for you :)
- To help us with that: please empty out drink containers before throwing them away. If one still has liquid or residue inside, seal it in a plastic bag so it can't leak. That way we can sort it all without a mess.
- The small bin next to the toilet is for sanitary products only — please don't put general trash (shopping bags, packaging, snack wrappers, etc.) in it 🙏
If the house rules aren't followed, our staff may ask for your cooperation 🙏
⸻
🔑 Once you've read the house rules above, please reply "Confirmed" to let us know you agree to them.
Access codes go out at 4:00 PM on your check-in day to guests who have confirmed — together with the Wi-Fi password and a quick house guide.
If we don't hear back from you, no worries — just message us and we'll get you sorted :)

Welcome to Roaming Tiger Hostel🐯
But i didnt recibe the ticket
Hi Roger! Here's your bed information:
🛏️ Your bed is facing the beds, the upper bunk on the left side in front of the bathroom in Room 501 (5th floor).
Perfect thank you
i will print it out for you if you need it
And do you have a smoking area?
no you have to go out on the first floor
no smoking on the whole building
Okay
And do i have a plug in my bed? I dont see one
you can use the extension i can bring it for you if you need it
Okay i have found the extension
And do you have washing machine?
Hi Roger! Glad you found the extension. About the washing machine: we do have one, but it’s mainly for staff use. However, I can make an exception and let you use it in the evening hours. Please check with me before using it, and keep in mind the dryer tends to stop frequently, so you’ll need to monitor it every 5 to 10 minutes and restart if needed. After use, please clean the lint filter. Let me know if you want to arrange this!
Okay, i will try to find one near by
I didn’t mean you had to go elsewhere 🙂 Since you’re staying for a week, you’re welcome to use our washing machine between 4 pm and 10 pm — just let me know before you start.
We’re a little careful about it because sometimes people leave their laundry in the machine and go out, or use it when we urgently need to wash bedding during cleaning. That holds up our work and can mean the staff can’t finish and go home on time. That’s why we ask everyone to check with us first.
Well no problem hahha
If you dont have dryer i would prefer to find a place that does
We do have a dryer, and you can use it too 🙂 It dries clothes really well, but it sometimes stops — especially with a large load, though it can happen with smaller loads too. Please check on it about every 10 minutes while it’s running.
During cleaning, it's difficult to tell whether items left in the bathrooms or common areas belong to guests who have checked out or guests who are still staying.
We will put any unattended items in a ziplock bag and place them on the shelf on Floor 4.5 (between 4F and 5F).
Items not claimed within 2 days will be disposed of during cleaning.
Please make sure to take your belongings with you! Without this policy, items end up sitting around for days and making the space messy.
Thank you!
