Review: A little ways away from the main area of Hongdae but decent price for the value. Signs up asking people to be polite and considerate of others but my stay was definitely a bit noisy after midnight.
Positive points: The staff was the best staff ever!
Review: The hotel let the room to be overbooked, and I ended up without a place to stay even though my card had already been charged. I had to urgently find a new place to stay on my own, and since it was a Friday, the available accommodations were much more expensive. The hotel provided no solution and didn’t help me find an alternative. I think even one star is too much.
Positive points: None
Negative points: everything durty.nEntrance, floor, room,
Review: I recommend to book this hostel if you want to party. Great staff and social atmosphere.
Positive points: Warm, comfortable place to stay. rnI had strong wifi and hot water for shower.rnThe owner was so kind to me. He showed me several good restaurants near this hostel. I really like local Korean one with Bibimbab and other fried chicken restaurant.
Negative points: Reception is closed after midnight and open again from 9am.
Review: I just love the place but there is no shampoo/bath gel provided, please bring your toileteries.
Positive points: It is a good place to meet people .rnTheir staff were all kind and helpful.rnIt has perfect location in Hongdae.
Negative points: Well, okay for me.
Review: Best hostel in Seoul if you solo travel and actually want to meet friends!
Positive points: Location was good
Negative points: The room and shared bathroom were not very clean at all. The bedding was ripped. There wasn't very many bathroom facilities considering the number of people that were staying there, so the bathroom was often full.
Review: the facilities are pretty raw, but it's a good social guest house.
Positive points: Nothing, terrible place
Negative points: The place was awful! It smelled terrible, and there was dust everywhere. The staff was rude and dismissive when I mentioned I was allergic to dust—they just said it was my problem and insisted they “clean” the room every day, which was clearly not true. I had to leave, and they refused to refund me. The sheets were dirty, the bed was incredibly uncomfortable, and there wasn’t even a spot to hang a towel in the shower. Terrible experience overall!
Review: The lobby is okay with a small kitchen having tables and chairs to take a seat while waiting before check in. There is luggage storage and a shared restroomnHowever, there is no drinking water. If you want a drink, you have to buy it, but there's not always staff available there, and the water dispenser is locked. Otherwise, you have to go to a nearby convenience store to buy it, I find this very inconvenient.nThere is no private bathroom, all use the shared bathroom, but it's always full because the staff also live together there, and I can't remember how many staffs they have including both male and female.nIn the room, there is only a bed to sleep in, no mini refrigerator compared to that pricenThe bed covers and pillowcases were all very smelly. Even the towels the hotel gave me, I think 100 people had used them, looked so old and scary that I didn't dare use it.nThe bathroom is shared by both men and women, there is no shampoo...
Positive points: Nothing, it was terrible
Negative points: Everything, it smells terrible!! There’s dust everywhere.The staff is not nice. I’m allergic to dust and I told them that, and they just told me it’s my problem and they “clean” the room everyday, which is obviously not right. I couldn’t stay there of course and they didn’t refund me. The sheets are not clean, the bed is not comfortable at all. There’s no place to put your towel in the shower.
Review: I booked a room on April 15th, informing your staff that my arrival would be around midnight. Despite assurances that arrangements would be made for my late check-in, I arrived to find that there was no accommodation prepared for me, and I was left waiting outside until 2 am.nUnderstandably, given the late hour and the inconvenience caused by the oversight, I had no choice but to seek alternative accommodation elsewhere, resulting in an unexpected expense of 90,000 won for the night.nFurthermore, the response from your staff member, Gonzalo, was deeply disappointing. Not only did he fail to take responsibility for his oversight, but he also refused to offer a sincere apology for the inconvenience caused. nIn addition to this incident, I must also bring to your attention another concerning issue regarding the behavior of another staff member, Lunena. Upon checking in on May 3rd, I discovered that my assigned bed, Bed 4, had been reassigned without my consent, and my personal belongings had been moved without my knowledge. This disregard for the privacy and belongings of your guests is completely unacceptable and further compounds my dissatisfaction with the level of service provided.
Positive points: Even on the first floor you can't really hear the people downstairs in the lobby. Still would recommend earplugs so you don't wake up when someone enters the room. There are lockers for 1000 won which is a fair price I think. The staff was pretty helpful and nice and the people staying there too.
Negative points: The street around it has a certain smell. There should be at least some type of curtain or something for a bit more privacy in the beds. Could be a bit more modern, getting the power outlets to work isn't easy since they barely hold the plug. I think only the female rooms had their own door lock.
Review: The pros: wonderful staff who were very helpful, great location, cheapnnThe cons: the whole building smelled sour, like body odor and feet. There are only three bathrooms to accommodate all the rooms (maybe around 50 people at a capacity?), and the women-only bathroom smelled godawful. My room (the women-only room) was incredibly cluttered, overwhelmingly so, and small enough that I caught a cold from one of my roommates.nnRough time.
Positive points: Perfect location so close from the airport train.rnAlso there a lot of restaurants and bars near from this hostel.
Negative points: I don't wanna complain!
Review: There's many other hostels nearby that are cleaner from what I can tell. Crowd of people there are diverse and fun though.
Positive points: The bed was firm, which is what I like.
Negative points: There isn't really much keeping your door closed and secured while you are in the room, which was unsettling since you're pretty vulnerable while sleeping or utilizing the bathroom
