I wasn't going to leave a review for this one as it was not a negative nor positive experience. However the staff has a very annoying habit of walking into the dorms and turning lights full on after hours, like 10pm, or way past midnight, or before check out time in the morning and just talk loud in the room. A lot of us are coming from or going to the airport with exhausting long haul flights. You are a hostel, you should respect our sleep, that's what we pay for. Appart from that the beds were comfortable and the rooms very clean, however there were only two showers for the entire hostel. Location is great.

Very congested. Bed was comfortable and that’s all about it. One shower+toilet in one floor and that too unisex. Very small and not very clean. The reception, lounge, early baggage drop are is all same. Very smallish kitchen. The bathroom at the first floor is unisex too and the shower cubicle is separated by just a curtain While sleeping one can hear people talk outside the gate Bad hostel overall

A great value hostel with all the amenities one could need. Not a flash packer or party hostel just a great all rounder. Having explored most districts of Seoul. I am glad we chose to stay in the Hongdae area. Such a cool vibe.

The staff were really friendly and informative upon check in. The location is around 10 minutes walk from the main Hongdae street and around 5 minutes from the Hongik University Metro Station. It is also on a quiet road and very peaceful. There is a bench to sit outside and also spaces inside communal areas to sit. Cooking facilities, hot and cold water refills and soap, shampoo provided in the shower rooms. The rooms are basic, beds aren’t the comfiest but the aircon works well and there are curtains for privacy. Would definitely recommend if looking for a budget friendly old school hostel without the pretentious atmosphere.

I have to say I cannot recommend this hostel based on their rigid booking policies. I was excited to stay here, but I got COVID a few days before my 11 night stay. I asked if there any partial refund possible because of my medical emergency, and I was denied so I still had to pay for the entire 11 night stay. I would say don’t book in advance in case some emergency happens because they’ll take your money without caring
