Mamas & Papas Hongdae Guesthouse and Apartments, Seoul

일단 위치는 너무 가까워서 좋았습니다. 시설도 깔끔했고, 사람들도 시끄럽지 않았어요. 다른 분들은 샤워할 때 줄서서 하고 그랬다는데, 전 남들 일어나기 전에 샤워해서 그런거는 없었는데, 샤워실이랑 방이랑 좀 떨어져있어서 불편한 건 있었어요. 다음에도 또 이용할 것 같긴 합니다.

홍대클럽거리랑 가까워서 놀기 좋아하는 사람들이 가면 좋을듯.. 그래서 그런지 게스트들이 밤늦게 들어오고 새벽에들어오고 잠자는데 집중 안됨... 가격이 저렴. 한 층에 씻을 곳이 1곳만 있어서 씻는거 줄 서있고 너무 불편했음 ㅠ

the hostel is located on a party street, so it’s difficult to sleep, everyone is screaming until the morning. There is a kitchenette and an elevator, only 3 floors

Our flight arrived in mid night, this hostel location is great in the midst of town. In front hostel is walking street have many restaurants and shopping. Room's wall is thin can hear other guests talking and walking around. This is a back packers type hostel. Picture is from hostel common balcony

Not particularly an ideal place to stay in but if you’re on a budget then go for it. The rooms are small and lack soundproofing. You share one bathroom at the floor you’re staying with everybody, which not everyone is the cleanest person… I saw a bloody pad in the wide open in the trash and I was very much disgusted. Anyways I think the staff are pretty nice and friendly at least.

Great guesthouse. Stayed there for 5 nights and I think it’s the best place to experience Seoul better. The receptionist is super friendly and nice and the boss is very kind too. I’d definitely come back here again when I visit Seoul next time. Thanks to Mr Lee, Amy and Sabina.

Very good location and very easy and simple check in and check out process. The bathrooms are not the cleanest but better than a lot of hostels I’ve stayed at.

Amazing place for staying. Good location and they have kitchen

I booked a single room for consecutive 9 nights but on the arrival night, the staff told they somehow messed up the reservation and made me stay in a shared room of 6, promised me that I will get a refund of 20,000won which was the price gap between the single room and the shared room. This already creates somewhat negative feelings for me to this hostel, the next morning, I did get a refund but I needed to chase it by myself and the owner seemed very reluctant while giving back my money. I moved to a single room where it's not as big as stated in the website(it's said 6m2, but it was only half of the size actually). The bed was quite stiff that it sore my back a bit and there was always a small flood from the 4F restroom, the wall wasn't soundproof so you will hear every single sound from other rooms and it interrupted my sleep. I understand it's cheap and it located right in Hongdae, but the stay really wasn't so delightful.
