Room was dirty and infested with bed bugs. I slept there 2 nights and ended up with 20+ bites. 2 Stars because the owner seemed genuinely concerned and tried to help.
Although conveniently located and run by kind staff, I would not recommend staying here unless absolutely desperate. I stayed in an all-female 6-bed room. It was very dirty. The bed sheets were not clean and there was a lot of mold and dirt everywhere in the room and in the bathroom and showers as well. There were also many major leaks in the ceiling that no one seemed bothered to repair. It just seemed overall neglected and unkempt.
The houee has rather warehouse feeling but still bearable for a night or two, not much socialising but that's normal for korea considering the type of travelers, who head there, lots of exchange students and k pop fans. Is again 1 bathroom for all man and 1 for the female. If you are staying only few days in Seoul head for central Seoul, beside of very young crowd and myriad of restaursnts there is nothing within 10 km in the area
friendly hostel, good location, luggage storage for 1 week. few toilets each floor, foreigners residents clean the place so don't expect very clean, smelly at basement maybe because there is no window, no activities from hostel, the nice clubbing place is M2, there are many restaurants, games shop, disco nearby.
Place was dirty as hell, even the gaming and common area in the basement. Beds didn't feel like they were made new, facilities aren't clean, and overall just not a good atmosphere for backpackers. The staff members were nice, but not sure how some people are rating this as a great hostel.
Hard to find, far from the hotspots in Hongdae. Run down.
The place is not clean, the staff is not very friendly.
At the time I stayed in the hostel there were around 30 "staff" members (more than guests) who stay in the hostel for free. Therefore the atmosphere wasnt great- unfriendly people who act like they own the place, definitely not a backpackers vibe.
I also didnt like the fact that they boost their reviews on different booking websites by offering to pay for good reviews and constantly asking you to post one.
The location is pretty good and the price is fair.
Relaxed Hostel in a great location. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Price is very fair.
The room was super affordable and in a convenient location to access the Hongdae subway stop. They were helpful when I needed to check in a little later than the allowed check in time. The bed was comfortable. Towels are only provided with a deposit during normal check in hours.
Pretty good location and facilities and price is very compelling. Large common area in the basement and nearby to a convenience store. Location is across major street from proper Hongdae area but is very close.
