The person who met us at the front desk was very friendly and had very good english! The rooms are small with a shared bathroom. They also had a nice downstairs to prepare food and some tables to eat at. Overall I would highly recommend staying here if you want somewhere simple and easy while you explore Seoul.

Easy check in. Easy check out. Perfect location. Nice bar and cafe across the street. They have heat up blankets which was perfect for the cold weather I encountered. Great wifi too.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is great. The kitchen is very disorganized, it’s very difficult to find anything. The shared bathrooms are bad, there is nowhere to put anything and there aren’t real doors. The provided towels are tiny. The hostel has a lot of potential due to the location but sadly it’s not realized.

Wee Keong

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The guesthouse is quite messy with things placed all over. The facilities and furnishing are quite run down. There’s a washer but no dryer. Very limited drying area. But the location is great as it’s near to Hongdae Shopping Street with lots of shopping, cafes and eateries. As it is also near to Hongik University Station, it’s rather easy to get to major tourist attractions, other shopping streets and places of interest.

War relativ cute! Nur leider waren eine Gruppe von 7-10 Leuten da, die zwischen 23-4 Uhr morgens sehr laut waren und sich nicht an die Regeln wie kein Fön in der Nacht etc gehalten haben… Ansonsten sehr gute Lage

Ett trevligt och enkelt ställe

Ett mycket trevligt hostel med många internationella gäster. För priset så är det vad man kan förvänta sig av ett hostel och har inget att anmärka på. Det är lite slitet, men det är mer en sidnotering än något som faktiskt påverkar. Området är toppen på alla sätt och närhet till mycket på promenadavstånd. Personal var väldigt trevlig och hjälpsam.

Un endroit simple mais cocooning

Un lieu agréable avec cuisine et salon partagé. Petite chambre mais suffisant pour juste y dormir. Lit peu confortable mais ne pas hésiter à demander un second matelas car le personnel est très accueillant et serviable. Très bien situé, proche d'un quartier animé.

대체로 만족스러웠고 또 가고 싶어요.

공용공간이나 자유롭게 생활하는 분위기가 좋았습니다. 다음에 또 오고 싶어요. 역과 다소 멀지 않아서 좋았고 연남파출소 앞이라 조용한 동네에 위치해있어요. 직원분들은 친절을 넘어 매우 친절하게 대해주셨고 여행 숙소에 적합했다고 느껴요. 다만 도미토리방안은 공기청정기가 필요해보여요. 환기가 안되고 공기가 답답답했습니다.

Excellent location and good hostel-standard

A guest house which is quite suitable for travelling to Seoul. The location is excellent for exploring and diving right into the city’s night life. The breakfast is hostel-standard toast/butter and rice, and the curtains around the beds in the shared rooms allow you some privacy.

２回目の滞在。シャンプーとかはないけど、タオル枚数制限なし、洗濯機も無料で使用できるので好きです。シャワーとかも制約はあるけど、２４時間OK。また食事のスペースやフリースペースもゆったりしてます。二段ベット上でも登りやすいのも高ポイント

従業員の態度があまり好きではなかった。親切だったが スタッフと一緒に生活してる感じがして嫌だった。お客様として迎えられたが、テレビはスタッフが観てるし あまり良い印象ではなかった。
