It is a nice hostel, clean, easy to find.. though, there is only one bathroom and one shower for women, i don't know about the men's.. it wasn't such a problem when i was there, as i only stayed one night, and there was not much people, but anyways, something to take into account.

Hostel is cared by 2 very friendly ladies, they were quick to tell us where to go and visit. That saved some time and questions. There is a kitchen available for cooking if you need, and lockers provided with keys (very secure). However the rooms are bunked for 10 persons only. No separate rooms available.

The staff was extremely nice and the hostel had a very welcoming atmosphere. We enjoyed the time spent there however there was only one bathroom for women and another one for men... during the busy showering hours, it could get too crowded.

Very convenient to get to from the train station using Bus 6 or 8 (especially with Eurail pass, which allows free bus rides). The entire place was very clean, spacious bathroom and lounge area. The breakfast was excellent--really good asian fried rice. :)

It was overall an OKAY experience. The hostel is pretty far away from the main train station, so it takes nearly half an hour on foot from the central station to get there. Otherwise, the hostel is being run in Korean Style and we got delicious breakfast in the morning! That was good! The staff is nice and pretty friendly and helpful about major attracts in Luzern.

VERY clean and cozy hostel. Mostly Koreans here. It's not really a party hostel, just a nice place to sleep (and sleep well). It feels almost like a Korean homestay. They make a great breakfast in the mornings. The location is kind of far without using the bus. I got lost my first time finding them - look for a red building with Korean words.

This was an interesting experience as we were the two only guests not from Korea. Nice breakfast, Korean style, which we enjoyed very much (Rice with eggs and soup). Everyone is very quiet and silent, which we appreciated as well as it is better to rest. One thing I did not understand though... after 5:30 am many people went out of the bedroom and back inside... so it wasn't possible to sleep anymore. I did not really understand why, as when I stood up had 7:00 am everyone was still in bed...
