The staff were extremely helpful and the room was very convenient. Walking distance to many of the local shops and night life in Seoul Hongdae. You will hear the street noise as this is surrounded by clubs, bars, shopping and eating establishments, so bring ear plugs. Great location.

Perfect spot for a couple wanting to explore the city. Only needed the hostel to sleep, shower and do laundry and it was the perfect size/had all necessary amenities. A little small but that was all the space we needed! Very walkable, near subway stations and a 15 min walk to Hongdae shopping street

Simple, Clean, but a bit noisy from the traffic outside, and the surroundings is a bit boring. Breakfast had a quite poor selection. But for the price it's okay for a short stay 1-2 days.

Nice location but too loud

Really nice staff and great location, but the quality of sleep was almost non existent. My room was second floor right next to the main road. I’ve stayed in hostels all over the world but the noise in the room here was the worst I’ve experienced. Wouldn’t return simply due to this.

ここへ宿泊したのは2回目ですが、駅や繁華街にも近いのでとても好きなホテルです。仁川空港や金浦空港からも乗換せずに一本で行けますし、1人旅行で心配な方にはオススメな場所です！ シャワー（バスタブ無し）、トイレ、洗面所が同じ所にあるので、韓国のお風呂事情に慣れていない方は驚くかもしれませんが、これに慣れてしまえば問題はありません。 朝ごはんも袋入りのドーナツや焼き菓子、シリアル、飲み物がありました。豪華とは言えませんが、無料で食べれると思ったら充分です。 部屋も2人で泊まってスーツケースを広げると足の踏み場がなくなるくらいに狭いですが、とても清潔感のあるホテルで、匂いなども全くありません（むしろ良い匂いです） 私はこれからもこちらのホテルを利用させていただきます。先日もありがとうございました^ ^

ชอบมากกกกก ขนาดห้องไม่ใหญ่มาก อยู่ 2 คนก็สบายๆ ไม่ได้อึดอัดอะไร เพียงแต่จะไม่สามารถกางกระเป๋า 2 ใบพร้อมกันได้ มีอุปกรณ์ให้พร้อมมากในห้อง ทั้งเครื่องอาบน้ำและไดร์เป่าผม ปลั๊กรองรับทุกอุปกรณ์เลย ไม่ต้องใช้adapter ชอบอีกอย่างคือเข้ามาแล้วกลิ่นและบรรยากาศดีมาก ทั้งหอม การตกแต่งดี และมีเพลง staff พูดภาษาอังกฤษได้ มีลิฟท์ด้วย อาหารเช้าจัดไว้ดีเลย มีกาแฟสดด้วย แนะนำให้เดินเข้าทางข้างหลัง เนื่องจากเดินง่ายกว่าและสบายกว่า ห่างจากฮงแดไม่มากนะ เป็นทางมายอนนัมซึ่งร้านอาหารเยอะมากๆ และเปิดดึก ห้องชั้น 1 ช่วงดึกอาจจะยังมีคนเดินผ่านไปผ่านมาบ้างเพราะติดถนน แต่ไม่ได้เสียงดังขนาดนั้นนะ ที่นี่คือดีจริงๆ คิดว่าถ้ามาอีก ก็คงเลือกมานอนที่นี่แหล่ะ

귀중품은 객실에 두고 다니지 말 것

객실 안에 가방을 두고 여행하던 중 가방 안에 305유로가 있었으나, 300유로가 사라졌음. cctv 확인 결과 투숙한 객실 출입 인원은 청소 할 때 직원들 이외에 없었음. 귀중품은 절대 객실에 두고 다니지 말 것. 귀중품을 객실에 두고 여행하는건 추천하지 않음.
