The whole experience was disappointing. The only thing that was good for me were a few of the other guests and the location of the guest house. The staff during check-in were kinda unprofessional and the guest house overall looked to be a mess.

Dirty and unsafe but good location
You can find a way better place for the same price. It's a basic guesthouse, but based on my experience it was very dirty and none of the doors had locks (not even the main entrance door), which really bothered me. This is an ok place to stay for one night, since the location is good, but I still wouldn't recommend this guesthouse.

A very nice and strategic place to stay, no fussy owner and staff. Quiet at night but you can still “partying” at undergroud floor without disturbing other guest. 10 mins walking from Hongik Univ station with 3-4 convenience store along the way. Recommended!

Highly Highly recommend staying here!!! Also if you plan on staying here hang around the reception you will meet some of the coolest and nicest individuals :) .. Bed was honestly surprisingly very comfortable... and I’m picky when it comes to beds. I overall loved my stay here and when I return to korea I know where I plan on staying! Also be very respectful towards the staff. (: Speaking of staff special thanks to Eli!!!! She is awesome!!

So dirty that I never showered here. I didn't even want to use the bathrooms. I guess if you're really in a pinch and need a place to sleep, but I wouldn't stay here again

This hostel is in a very good location for tourists in Hongdae with very many friendly guests all hours of the day in the common room. The service will do their best to meet your needs in a timely manner. Jiaxin was especially good and kind and pretty. Very good value for the price!

Great if you are in need of a bed.
My room was upgraded by Susie, which was nice. The staff was also helpful in booking a taxi to the airport for me. The staff themselves were great. Super friendly. The bathrooms could have been cleaner and I did find a roach in my room. Roaches are pretty standard for Asia, but it’s strange to see them in early spring on the 4th floor. It’s a cheap place to stay if you’re not planning on spending any time in your room except for sleeping.
