Nice location right in the middle of Hongdae. We had a private 4 bedroom which is nice because we got our own bathroom (and kitchen) for quite cheap. But it has one double bed. Upstairs is a common area. It's alright to stay in this Hostel if you just need a convenient place to sleep, but not really great in terms of athmosphere.

Seoul is safe, maybe this why they don't protect better place. It's easy to get in. The staff, the one guy i talked probably was 'high' and spoken poor english!

This is the best value for money you can get around the city. Very comfortable, perfect location - close to the night action and subway station. Originally had only to stay for 4 nights and chose to extend my stay to two weeks, felt like home. Keep it up!

The hostel is in a good location for going out around Hongdae & there was a friendly atmosphere inside with the other boarders but that's about where my positivity ends, having paid 20000W fo the night (and being able to compare it to many other hostels l've stayed in around busy areas like Hongdae & Itaewon), l was really disappointed to be shown to a dirty, moldy & badly laid out 6 person dorm room that had an equally as grim & cold adjoining bathroom. In comparison, awful value for money.
