Even with late arrival there's possibility to check-in. Hot water, bathroom towels, lockers in room.

5th floor without elevator: when you're late to train, luggage become a heavy problem. No possibility to dry clothes. Washing machine and drying ropes are on the balcony, a passage through one of the rooms. and if someone live in it, you can not pass and do not use it in any way.

Nice location near Hongik Univ station (airport line). plenty of food to eat nearby. night life is good too. has toiletries and thick blankets

to climb up to 5th floor every time you return. was a good exercise 😂 beds probably not for light sleepers, every movement or turning has the bed start creaking

the location was really good, and once you were few days there you feel comfortable in the lounge

5th floor without lift, the bathrooms were really dirty. The beds were so hard and quite uncomfortable. The place has potential but it’s just a bit neglected.

I thought the decoration was fresh and the bathrooms were well appointed. the had large lockers in the bedroom half the height and width of a single door wardrobe, but not big enough for a suitcase. there were toiletries in the bathroom. there was a hot and cold water dispenser in the kitchen, but no extras like coffee. there was a living room area with a large sofa and armchair. the location is good for going out in Hongdae. I stayed in three parts of the city, it isn't as good for visiting historical sites in the centre. jonggak was better for that.

there was a security door at the entrance and you were supposed to contact the owner if there was no one there. I was lucky there was someone in but even he couldn't contact the owner. I wanted to leave my cases. he let me leave them there but he was a little unwelcoming and said you can't stay here now. (not that I intended to). the code on the door was wrong so later I couldn't get in. Again I was lucky that someone was there. there are a lot of steps up to the guesthouse.

Great location, right near Hongdae street. The staff even understand English and can speak English. I had a Korean roommate that day. It was a perfect stay for just one day

The guesthouse is situated on the 5th floor, so I had to carry my luggage upstairs. It was quite a hassle. Apart from that, everything was cool

Accommodating host and a clean and comfortable place to stay. Guesthouse is very small (basically a converted flat), but nicely done. Good kitchen facilities.

The stairs would be annoying if you came back and forth to the hostel a lot.
