Overall, I enjoyed my stay here. It has a cute bar at the reception so easy to get information about Hongdae from the staff and from the other guests. I spent a lot of time in that reception area during my stay and really enjoyed it. The staff were so kind and did everything for me and for all the other guests. It was a cheap place but it had a great value for money. Plus, perfectly located. So close from the airport train.

Me and my friend stayed here cuz It was so cheap. We really did not expect a lot but we wanna book this place again after all! Not super clean but the staff managed it as much as they could and we felt cool and comfortable during our stay. The owner offered us free welcoming beer and also explained and introduces some local Soju for us. He also rold us where to go for eating & drinking, as well as hanging around at night in Hongdae. Strongly recommend for young travelers!

I honestly cannot say a single good thing about this place, maybe a couple of the staff were friendly. the only reason it has good reviews is they give you a free beer with a good review. rooms are dirty, bathrooms are actually gross. the worst hostel I've ever stayed in.
