This place was such a comfortable place to stay on my final night in Seoul. Fantastic location walkable distance to the best parts of Hongdae, and there’s an airport limo stop about a 10 minute walk away, so it’s super easy to get to Incheon. There are no staff on site most of the time, but they were super responsive by text (literally replied within minutes when I needed the code to open the luggage shed). I found the bed comfy and super private, everything was very clean. Fantastic Brekky that you can cook yourself. I didn’t use the kitchen much but it was massive and seemed to have everything you would need. Would stay again for sure :)

Nothing

Love how quite the area was, but the place itself was dead quiet after 9pm, so kind of hard to meet people for a guesthouse. The staff was amazing!! And gave great recommendations for places to eat. Great location. They did need guests to leave from 12pm to 3pm for cleaning, which was sometimes uncomfortable because either you had partied the day before or where sick (I went in March and it was extremely cold even snowed) or just tired and wanted to do a late tour day. But got used to it. It's a great location near subway station and train and the place was well maintained.

The location is excellent that makes journey to other parts of Seoul, Incheon airport or Goyang easy and convenient, and it's quiet that you can hardly hear any noise outside when night falls. In addition, it has a social-friendly atmosphere, as I've encountered and interacted with many unforgettable guests that further enriched my trip in Seoul as well as seeing Coldplay concerts🥰. Would definitely stay the next time I visit Seoul :)

Almost none, but firstly, the stairs in the hostel creaked, so you have to be very careful to mitigate the sound and not disturbing other guests; also, the bathroom was too short to stand for tall guests.

It was squeaky clean. Everything was provided and everything was straightforward from check in to checkout. No fuss. Staff is also so good though I barely saw them because I was out early and back late. I'm amazed how this hostel almost just runs by itself

The toilet and bath has weird config. Not that I don't like it...wasn't just accustomed to such arrangement. Like if the bathroom is occupied...the two toilet cubicles won't be accessible. (Good thing there are three of this hybrid toilet-bathroom in all ). The shower head and sink sharing the same water source is also new to me. But hey it works! The way they make it happen is actually smart. I thought it would be all wet and messy considering the small space but it still works! So really this isn't much of a frown

Amazing stay, such a welcoming environment and feels like at home! One of the best stays in general during all travels around the world🙏🏻 Alice was so lovely, and Reina was kind to offer fried bacon in the mornings. Great common place, that makes you feel you are in ur house and easy connect with lovely people🌿 Everything was clean, breakfast was standard but okay. Definitely will come back to this place for next stay in Seoul

I didn’t like to go from basement, where the room was located through the outside street. Which was near but still. Stay would be perfect if all rooms were located in the main building.

The place is in a really good location. Quiet neighborhood but close to all the fun of Mapo-gu. Good cafes and interesting places to go nearby, also a convenience store super close. The staff is amazing, always trying to make your stay the best possible. The breakfast is great, Coffee, eggs, cheese, ham, toasts, milk, orange juice and cereals. Self check-in is super convenient and easy. There is an automatic machine that will check your identity and give you your key and tell you which room to go. There are other positive things to say (free laundry machine, cleanliness, room temperature, and more) but i won't make it longer.

A nice comfortable stay. Clean room with all the necessities. Easy self check in, although I had a little trouble finding my room down the side of the house, in the basement, rather than in the main hostel. I arrived very late so some instructions as to where my room was would have been a nice touch. Bathrooms a little limited (I only counted two toilets in the place) considering how many people are there, frequently had to wait a while to use the toilet while people showered etc. I spent long days out and came back very late each night so, I didn't encounter any staff or use any of the hostels facilities or social areas, so I can't comment on them. But, the place did feel friendly and cosy, probably a good place for young backpackers to socialise if that's your thing. Decent stay and good location, if you want a quiet spot away from the hustle and bustle of Hongdae. Be aware it is a 15 minute walk into Hongdae's main area of bars and restaurants,, so don't imagine you'll be right in the heart of things.

It was a perfect place for Hongdae. Super clean, friendly staff and a big common table where to have dinner and socialize with other guests. A lot of people traveling alone, I encountered only friendly people and it felt very cozy. Free use of washing machine and dryer, little terrace and luggage storage.

The only downside is that the bunk beds were very unstable so any movement from the other person would make it shake, maybe if there is a way to fix them to the wall it would improve the experience! But you’re often tired or drunk in Seoul so I endured it.

Nice and homely hostel. Well-decorated, clean, kind staff. There is only a few rooms and the common area has a single large table, so breakfast had a family vibe, making it very easy to make connections with other travellers if you want. Use of the laundry room is free of charge in the evening.

No lockers in room and generally very little space to store things. It would also help if beds had a small shelf to serve as a night stand.

I recently stayed at batwo in Yeonnam-dong, Seoul, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The location is excellent, just a 7-minute walk from the train station, in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. It’s a great base for exploring Seoul while enjoying some tranquility, but also the festive vibe of Seoul since Hongdae is very near. The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the kindness of the staff, Alice and Reina, who went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The breakfast was another standout, with a good coffee machine that I appreciated every morning. The room was decent, equipped with curtains to provide some privacy, but there was no space to store belongings, and the beds were quite close to each other, which might not suit everyone. Regarding the bathrooms, there was a mixed experience. The bathroom on the ground floor had a very low ceiling, which made it challenging to shower comfortably, but the one on the first floor was much better and met my expectations. For the price I paid, the facilities provided were excellent. It’s a great option for budget travelers who value location and hospitality.
