Bamsaem Gaming Party Room in Anyang: Honest Review

Hello! Today I visited Bamsaem (밤샘), a gaming party room in Anyang Daengnidan-gil with a seriously wide range of games and equipment. It has five gaming PCs, and all five worked normally. There is also a PlayStation 5 / PS5 with four controllers, a Nintendo Switch with four Joy-Cons, a karaoke machine, various board games, a two-person arcade machine with many game options, and a free electronic dart machine. With that kind of setup, it is easy to lose track of time once you start playing.

The location is Anyang Daengnidan-gil. From the main road, enter the Sangnok Hall alley, and Bamsaem is on the 5th floor of the building with Il Primo, a Western-style restaurant, on the 1st floor. It is close to Anyang Station and Anyang Ilbeonga, so access is convenient. The listed usage fees were: weekday daytime 11:00-18:00, Monday-Friday, ₩99,000; weekday night 19:00-09:00, Sunday-Thursday, ₩150,000; weekend daytime 11:00-18:00, Saturday-Sunday, ₩160,000; Friday night 19:00-09:00, ₩200,000; Saturday night 19:00-09:00, ₩250,000. The prices are based on five people, and there is an additional charge if more people are added.

I booked for a weekday afternoon. When you go up to the 5th floor, it is on the right as soon as you get off the elevator. The usage guide text and party room password are provided on the day of use. You can change into the generously prepared slippers before entering.

The interior was really spacious and clean. Except for it being a little hot because it was summer, everything felt perfect. The sofa was large, and the spaces for eating food and playing board games were set up with plenty of room, which I really liked.

The thing I was most excited for was the five gaming PCs. We visited because we wanted to play a five-person League of Legends queue. As soon as we arrived, we turned on the computers first. Thankfully, all five worked normally. Before looking around too much, we opened the game and updated it, which helped the game run smoothly once we started.

Since we visited in the afternoon, we decided to order delivery for dinner. There was a space for handling food waste, along with disposable items, cups, and a water purifier, so it was easy to use. For reference, the water purifier also dispenses ice.

There was a simple table and some pretty props as well. The space was decorated nicely, so it was fun just looking around.

Behind the sofa, there was also a dart game. The darts were free too.

There were more than ten kinds of board games, plus an arcade machine. I tried turning on the arcade machine, and it worked well. There were so many game options that we kept choosing different ones to play. There were also blankets in case anyone got cold, which was a thoughtful touch.

While waiting for our delivery food, we played a round of Rummikub. Most of the board games looked almost unused, like they were practically new, which was actually great.

I also checked out the bathroom while gaming. It was inside the party room, well managed, and spacious. Toilet paper and wet wipes were prepared.

This photo was taken while all the computers were on and we were getting ready. It really felt like stepping into a five-person PC room at a Korean PC bang.

Each computer was fully equipped with a headset, a phone holder, and a charger. The keyboards also had covers, which felt hygienic and nice.

That day, we spent our time on the computers, so we did not use the PlayStation or Nintendo Switch. Still, each had four controllers, and there seemed to be a variety of games, so I think they would be popular. There were also many two- to four-player games. We did try the karaoke machine, and the microphone quality was good, with strong speakers. The latest songs were updated too, so it felt exciting and fun, like being in a real karaoke room.

There was a large table in the center, so we set up our delivery food there and ate. It was spacious enough to sit comfortably.

Because there was a food-waste area, cleanup was easy. We just collected the food waste separately in the bin, sorted the recycling, and cleanup was finished. Since the water purifier also provides ice, it was nice for drinking cold beverages. I would like to visit again.
