Well located but facilities are strict minimum. Very hot water in the shower so that’s good in winter. Main problem: smell mold (common problem everywhere in Séoul) and not the most cleaned hostel. Otherwise it’s decent if you’re on a low budget. Location again is very convinient

The place is pretty run down. A bit of a freshen up would go a long way with some fresh paint and a deep clean of the bathrooms. The pillows and mattresses seem quite old and thin.

Location is great, close to restaurants, cafes, bars and public transport! The Friday night BBQ is a great way to meet others in the hostel. Staff were helpful with questions, and the man I think was the owner is lovely!

The street around it has a certain smell. There should be at least some type of curtain or something for a bit more privacy in the beds. Could be a bit more modern, getting the power outlets to work isn't easy since they barely hold the plug. I think only the female rooms had their own door lock.

Even on the first floor you can't really hear the people downstairs in the lobby. Still would recommend earplugs so you don't wake up when someone enters the room. There are lockers for 1000 won which is a fair price I think. The staff was pretty helpful and nice and the people staying there too.

There isn't really much keeping your door closed and secured while you are in the room, which was unsettling since you're pretty vulnerable while sleeping or utilizing the bathroom

The bed was firm, which is what I like.

cleaning and the bathrooms are really bad

staff was kimd

Stayed in May 2024

The beds and rooms were not great honestly, also no blinds or anything for the beds only 3 bathrooms is abismal and one has a tiny ceiling... much to be desired

The location was 20m walk from hongdae nightlife also very close to subway good location

Stayed in April 2024

The rooms are very cold depending on the weather. The room is only heated from the floor but it is not enough to heat the room in winter. Room floor and bathroom are clean but windows and sides are full of dust.

Staff were really helpfull with everything. They gave us really good advise about where to visit, transportation and the timetables. Location is really convenient and nearby lots of cafe, restaurants, bars and metro.

Stayed in January 2024

The facilities and dormitories could be more modern and decorated but it is clean

Very well located, the neighbourhood is very friendly and with various bars, nightbars, restaurants and places to go.

The bathroom horrible stink , small , dirty The room is very uncomfortable too hot, too cold sometimes, so loud (you hear drunk people comeback in their room in 4 am) , the curtain is not thick at all I couldn't sleep ..too much light The staff is voluntary so not professional, I guess I wasn't really Lucky the one who do my check in was rude 😕

The most annoying part for me was that although this is a PARTY hostel, they don’t allow you to bring your own drinks even though they don’t have a common area? So you’d have to hang out at their reception bar in order to drink with the people you meet.. But onto the quality of life things: - Bathroom had a lot of mildew, I had to hold my breath to get ready. - There’s only 3 bathrooms for about like 7 rooms so busy times you’d have to queue/wait. - Bunk placement was very awkward so everybody’s suitcases were on the floor, and bunks didn’t have curtains. - You can’t use your own lock you have to rent the key and locker from the reception. - Outlets were very old and kept falling off (it took me about 5-10mins before bed every night to adjust my plugs intricately so that they won’t fall out as I slept). - No common area for people to socialize in.

- Central location, very close to lots of cafes, party spots, multiple Olive Young’s..etc! - Staff were nice, they watched over my Nintendo Switch as I left it to charge before leaving to the airport. - Met a lot of cool travelers!

The building seems a bit old so for example bathroom facilities are not the most comfortable. The biggest minus is I was staying in the female dorm and unfortunately the locking system would beep very loudly every time somebody left and entered the room so I woke up a few times because of this. Other dorms are probably a better choice as they didn't have this locking mechanism (they don't have locks at all)

My stay at the hostel was good, the location is perfect, in one of the main party districts with lots of nice bars and restaurants around the corner. The hostel is clean and the staff friendly.

Bed sheets not really clean, Bathroom okay if you are used to camping-like standards. Can be a bit noisy at night, but okay, it is literally a party hostel (it says so in the name) so you know what to expect :)

Good location, affordable price, surely great to meet people.

Stayed in September 2023

Didn’t feel that clean (especially the bathrooms) and the beds were rusty.

Best social hostel in Seoul, with everyone going out every night. Staff are lovely.

Stayed in August 2023

- one of the lower bathrooms stank really bad (luckily there are 2 more bathrooms)

- location: along the airport metro line and Hongdae shopping/dining/happening area - staff: kind, friendly and helpful

Stayed in August 2023

The place, while clean, felt like it was cramped

Meeting lots of people from diverse backgrounds

Stayed in July 2023

Unfortunately I found this hostel to be quite unorganised, there were no curtains on the beds so you have no privacy and you can’t use the lockers for free so people just left their stuff everywhere in the room. The bunk beds were also creaky and poor quality. Also there are no locks on the door and you don’t get a key card, so anyone who knows the code, or can otherwise open the main door, can also enter the hostel rooms which makes people feel unsafe about their belongings. Other people I talked to at the hostel said they were surprised this place had such good reviews. The hostel bar was dark and small. I am sure you could find a better hostel in Seoul with a great location and people who are just as nice - just my personal opinion!

Great location! The staff and people staying here were all super friendly and really helpful. They offer towels for free for your stay too which is awesome.

Stayed in July 2023

Felt very unwelcomed when we arrived and each night we were there the staff were taking up most the common room and not being inclusive with the guests. Sink kept blocking and toilets/shower room pretty unclean and not enough for the number of guests.

Location was good. Price was good for Seoul.

Stayed in May 2023

The bathrooms did not meet expectations as sometimes clogged.

The location was great since it was a 8 min walk to the main street of hongdae, ak plaza, and the subway station. The value was also great

Stayed in June 2023

I gave this hostel a 'pleasant' score because it was a lot of fun but the property itself was fairly dirty and seemed unkempt. Also, I was not given a bed in a bunk-bed but a cot in the middle of the room.

the location was great and the social atmosphere was the best I've experienced across 6 weeks of travel in Japan and Korea

Stayed in May 2023

Stains on the bed sheets. Grotty smelly bathrooms and the bar area smells bad. Bedrooms weren’t the cleanest places.

Location was great to get to places in the city. Beds were ok.

Stayed in May 2023

Staff - cold and unfriendly. Events - BBQ cancelled Pre arrival - taking money from my account without proper notification and threats to cancel my booking Common area- non existent. Bar area was a place to be ignored by staff with no conversation or interaction

Location and the fact that i had a private room at an affordable rate

Stayed in April 2023

On the top bunk of the bed, it moved and made noise when I turned over. The ladders are narrow. The room was very bright. Shower is in the toilet so floor can be quite wet.

There was a Korean BBQ organised on the Friday. Walking distance from clubs in Hongdae and near a metro station. No key required just codes.

it was kinda stinky room, bathrooms would need some upgrade as well

nice personal

Stayed in March 2023

Facilities need to be, and should be renovated, cleaned more regularly. The pricing for the privates honestly were way too high considering what we received - however, it wasn't so bad. The hostel itself was fine!

Camille was excellent and the hostel itself was fine. The privates were wayyy overpriced and honestly a bit dirty. I'm a pretty relaxed traveller and had my fairshare of hostels but unfortunately the hostel was a little dirty - feel like they are in desperate need of a renovation. This is quiet time so little atmosphere but thats to be expected and wasn't bad.
