Zzzip was possibly the best introduction to hostel living that I could have ever had as a solo female traveler. To start, Jina and Bryan were excellent hosts--very welcoming, helpful, and friendly. The rest of the staff were also super kind, and one of them even helped me with figuring out the laundry. I stayed in a private room, which was conveniently furnished and had a nice, spacious bathroom. You can feel right at home with the TV and A/C. For the more extroverted travelers, the common areas provide a great space to hang out and plan excursions. The breakfast area was well stocked with the essentials, and guests can even store food in the fridge for some time. Regarding location, the shops and tourist spots of Hongdae are extremely close. You will get a mix of both local small businesses and the more recognizable chains. In my opinion, there's so much to do in this area that you will get FOMO or decision fatigue no matter what! I would definitely go back to Zzzip if I get the chance.

朝食ついての料金は非常に安く、比較的駅には近いので便利でしたが旅行者利用には向いていない。洗面とか使いにくかったし、寝具とかも枕と薄い賭け毛布だけで少し臭いがあり、使用しませんでした。 明洞からは電車利用だと直通ではないので乗り換えが面倒でした。

The atmosphere is excellent. The rooms and common area small, however very efficient and welcoming. You can sit out and read a book, sip on coffee or a beer and chat with others. Really enjoyed the hosts and the lovely group of other travelers. The location is excellent. The hosts do a great job of helping the travellers have fun, book things like tours and hair cuts etc. They also put together a nice efficient simple breakfast of bread, cereal, boiled eggs, peanut butter and jam. Considering this is a budget hostel - the Breakfast is thoughtful and filling.

Good vibes and beautiful friends!

Amazing hostel. Such good vibes, feels like home and the social atmosphere is next level. If you want to make friends to explore Seoul with, you will have no trouble rounding up a group for whatever activity your heart desires. Breakfast is next level, peanut butter AND soymilk, my two favorites! Jina and Brian are really helpful with giving advice and suggestions. Look no further, stay here!

Quiet location and close to Hongdae. With no soundproof, it can get noisy with guests who stay past quiet hours. Convenient transportation to and from Incheon airport. Staffs are friendly and helpful.

Nice place to stay near Hongdae

Friendly staff, nice and clean room, great location in Hapjeong (near hongdae, where is more quiet if you wanna get a freat night sleep) — love the location best cuz you can get to Hongdae, Sangsu (where has great food and music venue) and Mangwon (lots of cool small coffee shop around the area, while Mangwon market is also amazing— lots of delicious cuisine and vendors inside). And Jina and Bryan are fantastic hosts for sure! Super nice and helpful!
