The ONE Hostel Hongdae

Điểm trừ: The beds are weak metal frames so they move & squeak A LOT. Kind of hard to get into & the hostel itself is a little difficult to get up to if you have luggage.

Điểm trừ: the stairs up to the hostel were very steep, so it might be a bit difficult if you have knee/joint problems

Điểm trừ: They don't provide breakfast, but they didn’t remove it from the property advertisement. Overall staffs didn’t show any professionalism in their work. They also don't keep the air conditioner on in the living area for all the time, everytime someone need to request them to turn it on. It was super hot during my stay there, but nobody cares!

Điểm trừ: The smell was a little bit bad especially in the fourth floor.

Điểm trừ: The stairs if you stay here there is dozens of stairs that you should take :( it would be good if there were elevator or some help for the baggage cuz i literally cried while i took off my baggage

Điểm trừ: The hostel is run by a group of french people that doesn't care at all about the place or guests, pictures are not accurate, everything is a mess, the staff is the laziest I ever seen, they don't even bother cleaning the floor even when there is dead cockroaches on it. Staff are coughing all the time, specially one of the guys, coughing every ten seconds, never wearing a mask. That same guy was brushing his teeth and spit out everything on the kitchen sink with plates and cutlery. They made you wear this disgusting sandals to use in the bathroom that are never washed, you have to share them with all the staff and others guests, they are full of mold, same with everything in the bathroom all covered with mold. This is the most disgusting place I ever been and the most irresponsible staff ever, incredible really, I can't believe there is people that can live in those conditions. Don't come to this horrible place, you will not have a good time, or even sleep well, they don't put covers on the pillows or change the sheets, this place is worst that a jail.

Điểm trừ: You could change the photo. It's kind of difficult to recognize it through all the stuff you have in the hall)

Điểm trừ: A little bit of confusion but tolerable.

Điểm trừ: The staff would answer questions but were not friendly. I also never got an email with door code info before coming. Another guest answered the door and I had to go hunt down the staff member. It’s fine, just not the best environment from the staff - probably better if you are French since they were all French.
