I only stayed here for 1 night but immediately it was apparent how lovely the manager was. He was extremely welcoming and helpful. The hotel is located on the 5th floor with many steps and he came down to help with luggage. Also, we had a query and we messaged him and he responded swiftly. Whats more is, the hotel was very clean and located in an area which has everything you need.

The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming. He assisted us with our luggage and even monitored the security cameras to see when guests arrived, stepping out immediately to help with check-in and storage. When we returned later to pick up our stored bags in the afternoon, he came out to offer us cold water in the air-conditioned lounge, which can be entered only with hotel key. It was a very hot and humid day, and being able to cool down before our walk to the train station was a wonderful, thoughtful touch. So even though the hotel room is small, I recommend this hotel for short stay, for its cleanness and wonderful staff.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was, without a question, one of the worst hotels I have been to. They should advertise themselves as a Hostel, that would be way more accurate and honest… I don’t understand the great reviews so here is a realistic review. For starters the hotel is in a 5th floor with no elevator (which you find out until the check in instructions), the poor manager has to carry luggage all day long and if you have an early or late flight, no one is there to help. The rooms look nothing like the pictures, they are so tiny that the toilet and shower share the same space… if that wasn’t disgusting enough, they don’t even provide normal size towels for you to take a shower… the towels are tiny, you can’t even wrap them around your head… mindblowing. The bed is hard as a rock, and if you get room 501 you will here people come and go all night long as the entrance door is right next to the bed. Breakfast options are very limited and doing laundry has an additional cost (which, again, they don’t tell you about until you are already there with no cash). The only good thing is the location, I only stayed here one of the 3 nights as Expedia helped me escape to a normal hotel, with a comfortable bed and a shower that is not integrated on top a dirty toilet. Do yourself a favor and go stay at a nice hotel instead. Manager was nice and tried to help, but there is no way I could accept such an uncomfortable experience (not cheap, also).

I stayed here with my two teenagers. We had a room with a bunk bed that could comfortably sleep two people on each level. At first, I was a little concerned because there was no elevator and the room was a bit smaller than I expected, but the staff was incredibly helpful, carrying our heavy luggage up and down for us when we arrived and departed. We also loved the cute kitchen where you can have simple breakfast. It was so convenient, and my son absolutely loved making Nutella sandwiches there every morning! What impressed me most was the incredible flexibility and kindness of the staff. I wish I had gotten their names, but both of them were exceptionally friendly. They even offered to move our laundry into our room once it finished drying so we could head out early without waiting around. It was clear that the staff genuinely enjoy working there and chatting with travelers, which made the atmosphere so welcoming. While it’s not a luxury hotel, it is a wonderfully down-to-earth accommodation that has everything you need. Plus, the location is fantastic, surrounded by many restaurants, shops, bus stops, and subway stations. So small space really didn't matter because we mostly stayed outside and enjoyed the night in Hongdae!

직원분들 너무 친절하시고 시설도 깨끗했어요. 편의점도 가깝고 위치가 홍대 번화가에 놀러나가기 진짜 좋아요. 이 가격에 작지만 전용 화장실과 샤워가 가능한 공간이 있다는것도 큰 장점이고 세심하게 침대 머리 맡에 콘센트랑 전등스위치도 있어서 좋았어요. 캐리어 있으신분들은 계단이라 힘드실 것 같지만 전 백팩이어서 전혀 문제가 안됐어요ㅋㅋ 추천합니다!
