A convenient and cozy hostel needing quietness.
A little bit noisy because of locating in an popular area. The crew are friendly and nice.

Clean, Polite, but No Hot Water!
The establishment is run under the ethos of promoting empathy especially for North Korean refugees. It is very cheap yet everything is so clean and generally available, including washing machines, computers, study rooms, etc. They provide you with clean linen but you have to make your own bed with it. They even give you complimentary coffee at the lobby. Breakfast is also free and consists of toast, jam, coffee and boiled eggs. Only problem with the place is there is no hot water!

Great guest house!!
Empathy is one of the best places I have stayed. The staff are friendly, even on occasion inviting me to participate in the hotel BBQ and other events. The hostel is very close major shopping and eating areas and not far from anything in particular in Daegu. Staff are helpful always and there are many staff so someone is always around. Rooms are cleaned daily too

何処に行くにも便利!!
始めてのゲストハウスで緊張していたんですが部屋も綺麗でスタッフの方も親切。べットルームは、オンドルが入っていて暖かかった。ゲストハウスの隣にはオシャレなカフェ・裏通りには夜遅くまで空いている飲食店もあり駅にも近く便利でした。朝もコーヒー・オレンジジュース・ゆで卵・食パンが食べれてこの価格でしたらとても良いと思います。

旅館的位置是在中央路站附近的長胡同旁邊,長胡同本身就是一個觀光景點,跟這裡相映成趣
我當天有Late Checkin的情況,但透過hotel.com網站的聯絡旅館功能,順利聯絡到旅館也感謝服務人員願意等我一下(抱歉耽誤她的約會時間..呵呵),也感謝她提供往機場的公車資訊,旅館的位置是在中央路站附近的長胡同旁邊,長胡同本身就是一個觀光景點,跟這裡相映成趣,住宿的空間雖然有點狹小,但是令人驚喜的是裡面竟然有獨立衛浴空間,是個很熱情溫暖的hostel

Great location, basic facilities
Great location, walking distance to Dongsung-ro(shopping & cuisine street) and subway station. I wouldn't say the room was very cozy, but it had everything an accommodation should have. The room charge is super cheap and overall I had a pleasant stay.

立地と価格と利便性の備わるゲストハウス
地下鉄もバス停も近くて空港からバス(101又は401)で一本、繁華街の東城路は歩いてすぐ。遅くまで遊ぶのにもとても良い立地。 隣にはオシャレなカフェがあり、近所には麻薬パンの店もある。 まさにゲストハウスで、バスタオルとリネンを渡され自分でベッドメイクする。共有リビング有。冷蔵庫、レンジも使える。フロントはAM8-PM10まででそれ以外はオートロックキーがかかるのでチェックイン時の説明をよく聞かないといけない。共有PCもフロントの開いてる時間のみ利用可能。 ベッドは木製で金属のきしむ音が苦手な私にはありがたかった。 8ベッドの部屋だったが結構キツキツにベッドが詰め込まれているが、ベッドルームと別に4畳ほどのスペースがある。 シャンプーリンス、ボディソープ、ドライヤーあり。 トイレの紙は流してはいけないタイプ。 トイレとシャワーが一緒になってるので、シャワー使うと床とサンダルが濡れるゲストハウスによくあるパターン。洗面台の水も排水管ではなく床に排出されて排水口に流れるようになってる。 暖房はあったけど、冷房があったかは未確認。 ゲストハウスなのでホテルのように清潔とかはないけど、普通に清掃はされています。 ただ寝るだけなら十分だし、とても安いので1人の時はまた利用すると思う。 私が宿泊したときは平日で、8人部屋を一人で使えました。

行裡較大只有窄窄的樓梯要搬上搬下不太容易,附近很熱鬧要吃飯很方便,要坐公車或是地鐵也不遠,早餐事簡單的麵包跟果汁,員工還有主動詢問是否要咖啡,出門還可以再櫃台寄放行李
