Located in the very lively Hongik university district, the Seoul I guest house offers private rooms and dorms at a reasonable price. It's a modern building, lacking a bit of character perhaps, and one of the two bathrooms was run down, but the staff were helpful and the fresh eggs for breakfast a very nice touch.

Great hostel. Only stayed one night but was really impressed with the hosts professionalism. He was also good at conversation and knew lots about beer. :) I stayed in the private room. It was clean, comfortable and soothing after a long day of travel. My only suggestion would be to drill holes in the wall for the internet cables to go through in the private room. They now run through the window, leaving it slightly open; I heard someone typing late at night. Besides that, everything was perfect.

I only stayed here for one night, but was overwhelmed with how much I loved it! One employee spent about 30 minutes giving me directions to the hostel over the phone while he was out with his friends on a Friday night! The morning we checked out, another employee let us sleep in 2 hours past our check-out time! It was clean, comfortable and in a fabulous location: walking distance to the party spots at Hongdae. I would highly recommend this guesthouse. It is a great experience for a low price.

I had a really great stay at Seoul I. I would highly recommend this guest house to any one visiting the area. The staff were friendly and helpful and the facilities were quite clean especially compared to another guest house I had stayed in in the area.
