it had a rooftop where you get a nice view of the outdoors and can enjoy some drinks with hostel friends. walking distance to all the Hongdae clubs. close enough to the River if you’d like to see that. subway is nearby also.

the 6 bed dorm was way too tiny. 8 bed dorm is much better value with more space. pictures need to be updated, so that guests aren’t disappointed when they show up. it’s clear these pictures are very old.

The location is amazing and is quite hear several Metro Lines, it also takes just a couple minutes walking into the heart of Hongdae but its still very quiet at night. I had an amazing stay hanging out with other guests in the living room area in the evening. There are usually many people from all over the world staying there. The kitchen does its job, so does the bathroom. They provide you with a variation of towels you can use. (Even really big ones.) Also every room has an AC.

Be aware of the fact that this guesthouse is on the 4th/5th floor and the stairs are quite steep so dont bring a heavy suitcase and the room can get a bit cramped if many people have their luggage in it. ^^ Also the owner has a dog that can be in the public areas, make sure you're not allergic or afraid of dogs. :)

I had a really great time, the location is so awesome and it’s a lovely place to hang out with a truly international crowd of backpackers (not just white people as in other places lol). Free breakfast was an awesome touch and another great way to meet people and also team up for activities.

Be aware you might have to wait for one of the 2 bathrooms, especially in peak hours, but it was ok. Little improvement suggestion, please put a bin in the bathrooms so us girls don’t have to carry our used tampons through the living facilities to the bins. I bet a lot of girls just throw it in the toilet and clog it because of the missing bin. Still 10 points for this awesome experience!

Everything was clean, the manager was very welcoming and there are plug points by the beds so you can charge your phone with ease. Each bunk also has a curtain for privacy which was nice.

It was great value for money. It is a hostel so don't expect luxury. You are in a small room with 3 bunk beds in it, so it is a little squashed, but you couldn't expect anything more for the price.

I thought he French staff members were very nice and easy to work with for check-in & out. I liked how the rooms did not have too many girls in them. Just 4 to a room. I also liked the neighborhood as there were alot of food and shopping choices. Good area if you like clubbing as well.

I thought the bathrooms were a bit unusual. I am used to Japanese wet rooms, but this one did not have a dry area, so even the clothing I brought in to put on after my shower got wet. Otherwise, I though the hostel was great!

I have already book this guesthouse and I would totally recommend it for a small budget person. It has a really good price-quality ratio. The beds are comfortable and they all have a curtain to draw privacy. We also have a relatively big locker (for your computer or other valuables). A breakfast is included which is really great for the price. Just don't expect something incroyable.

There are only 2 bathrooms for the entire guesthouse so in the morning and the evening you have to wait to go to the toilet or take a shower.

Very welcoming staff and cute hostel culture.

Bed wasnt the most comfortable and squeaked a lot. Breakfast was advertised and offered but didnt consist of much more than bread and peanut butter.

Very clean hostel. There’s a basic free breakfast (jam, bread, tea, coffee, juice) & filtered water 24/7. The workawayers are very welcoming and usually ready to go out. 2 floors with a great view, and an extra one for the rooftop THE DOG

I can’t think of anything really

The location was great, especially if you want to go clubbing and dance the night away. The nearest subway stations—Sangsu and Hapjeong—are only a few minutes’ walk away. The hostel cannot be found on Naver but you can use “Simyang Hongik Univ. Branch” as it’s in the same building.

This isn’t really something that I did not like but I wish there was butter available for breakfast. :D

Two levels duplex inside an apartment block, looks like a house. The decoration is very stylish, I especially love the traditional Korean furniture. I also love the rooftop. Very good area of Seoul. Even though I was informed there would be no free breakfast with the excuse of COVID, there was, very simple, but free is always nice. Good value for money.

During my stay none of the owners was present. The place was a hundred percent run by volunteers, and self check-in for that reason with the impression no staff was there was confusing, especially since there was a problem with the door which sounded a very loud alarm after being shut until one of the tenants, who has been staying for a long time, fixed it by closing it and typing the code again. But the volunteers (French during my stay) are very friendly.
