The owner is personable and very helpful. Terrace is great, I enjoyed to spend my time there.

Awesome location, super friendly staff, comfy bed and how clean it is.

- Great location, just a short walk away from Hongik station along with tons of coffee shops, eateries and convenience stores. - Smiley and kind staff. Homey and cozy atmosphere. - Clean place. Towels provided besides other necessities.

The cozy atmosphere, the staff, the location was absolutely fantastic, the fact we can make our own meals every time we chose. I will definitely recommend on this hostel. It's in budget and you get great conditions

The staff were great and friendly! And the location was excellent. It was also very clean.

The best hostel I have ever stayed in! Everything was absolutely amazing, just do yourself a favor and book it!

Breakfast was free as was laundry (no dryer). Location is off a nice strip of park/shopping in the middle of collegetown. There are plenty of good, cheap restaurants around.

Very very clean, have good facilities, feel like home. They provide washing machine, kitchen and we are able to cook our breakfast by our self. All the staff are very helpful. What a great experience. I stay with my daughter 16 years old, and she loves it. Good location, easy access to airport.

Very good location, helpful staff, towels for free :)! Great kitchen.

Very comfortable common area. Spacious kitchen and dining table. Clean bathroom and beds. Bunk beds have curtains for privacy and personal lockers if needed. Staff are friendly. Other guests are friendly too. I would definitely stay again and recommend it.
