Avoid the black mold in the shower.
There was no one at the front desk upon arrival, nor was the door open. There was just a sign saying the manager was gone. Then upon arrival we were sent up to the third floor into a room that does not look like the pictures on hotels.com. Next, the shower was covered in black mold, as well as red mold. I don't understand how they can keep it so untidy. Just get some bleach and spray down the bathroom. The bed was also another point of contention as it felt like a dozen metal springs were sticking right into my back. The worst part was that we were asked to bring our towels and trash down and deposit them into receptacles in the lobby. Am I supposed to do the cleaning too? Am I not paying for that service upon renting the room?

Very disappointing
We booked a twin room but requested to change to a room for three around 3days before we we due to check in. This has already been agreed by the hostel and we just left with making the extra payment upon check in. But during check in, they suddenly said that the room for 3 is not available. Reason being is that they suddenly have a lot of reservation. And they then suggested us to move to the dormitory room which we definitely disagree as the reason of booking there is for private room and private toilet. Hence, we ended up in a twin room from our first booking with an extra mattress which reduces our movement space. Secondly, the room totally doesn't look like the one in the picture. The room was extremely small. The picture shows and even the description says that there's Refrigerator, microwave and toiletries. And the way the picture say and the description say is that it's in the room. However, when we got in, it was an apartment split into 2 rooms aka 2tenants. The kitchen is a shared kitchen between the 2 rooms. And there's no toiletries supplied in the room. Hence, we had shop for it. Overall, i'm very very disappointed with the experience although the location is good. But I don't think there will be a second time unless there's no other places to stay at/

솔직한 후기
입구 : 흰색과 하늘색의 보관함이 있는 곳 바로 옆에 불투명한 유리문이 있는데, 그게 정문입니다. 비밀번호를 입력하시고 들어가시면 됩니다. 방 크기 : 방 크기는 서울에 자취하는 월세집 정도의 크기입니다. 여자 3명이 바닥에 앉기에 적당합니다. 공간은 살짝 좁았지만 서랍장이 많아서 이것저것 넣어둘 수 있었습니다. 홍대 번화가 한 가운데에 있는 숙소인 걸 생각하면 전체적으로 가격 대비 괜찮았습니다. 난방 : 겨울이라서 추울까봐 사장님께 난방을 따뜻하게 해달라고 요청드렸습니다. 25도로 설정하면 엄청 따뜻해진다고 하셨는데, 보일러가 고장났는지 난방이 아예 안 되더라고요.. 이 부분이 많이 아쉬웠습니다. 화장실 : 온수가 잘 나옵니다. 근데 화장실의 변기 몸통이 굉장히 들썩거렸습니다. 처음에 앉았다가 부숴지는 줄 알았습니다. ㅋㅋㅋ 저희는 401호를 사용했는데 다른 방의 변기는 어떤지 모르겠네요. 그리고 샤워기를 사용하는 게 조금 어려웠습니다. 수도꼭지에 있는 버튼을 위로 올리면 샤워기에서 물이 나오는 형태인데 그 버튼이 계속 내려가서 씻을 때 번거로웠어요. 화장실은 샤워기랑 변기만 보완해주시면 정말 좋을 것 같습니다. 침대 : 2층 침대랑 매트리스 하나가 있는데, 2층 침대는 딱딱하고 두껍지 않은 매트입니다. 저는 폭신한 매트리스에서 잤는데, 매트리스에서 알 수 없는 미묘한 냄새가 났습니다... 지린내와 탈취제 그 사이?... 까는 이불을 걷어보니까 무슨 자국이 있던데, 까는 이불은 깨끗하니까 그냥 잤습니다. 소음 : 냉장고가 평소에는 조용하다가 가끔 소리를 냅니다. 저는 제 자취방에도 똑같은 냉장고가 있어서 익숙했지만 제 친구들은 밤에 잘 때 시끄러웠다고 합니다. 그리고 지나가는 차 소리도 들렸고, 근처에 공사를 해서 공사장 소리도 들렸다고 합니다. 근데 저는 못 듣고 아주 잘 잤습니다. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 엘레베이터 : 엘레베이터가 없고 계단으로 올라가셔야 합니다. 저희는 4층이어서 올라가는 게 살짝 힘들었지만 운동한다고 생각하니까 괜찮았습니다. 위치 : 위치가 진짜 좋다고 생각합니다. 걸어서 2분 거리에 편의점(GS 25)이 있고, 숙소 주변이 전부 식당이랑 술집이어서 늦게까지 먹고 마실 수 있었습니다. 그리고 홍대입구역 3번 출구를 기준으로 걸어서 6분 거리인 것도 정말 좋았습니다! 결론 : 화장실이랑 매트만 교체해주신다면 지금보다 더 좋은 평가를 받을 수 있을 거라고 생각합니다! 다음 번에도 홍대에서 숙소를 잡는다면 여기에 묵을 의향이 있습니다.

몇 시간 잠깐 머물 곳이 필요해서 갔는데 호스트님이 친절하셨고 방은 깔끔했어요. 다만 비누/핸드워시가 없는 점, 화장실 변기가 달그락거리는 점을 개선해주시면 좋을 듯합니다. 숙소 위치가 좋아서 홍대-연남동 근처를 여행하는 분이라면 저렴한 가격에 만족스러운 경험을 할 수 있는 숙소입니다.

10時以降は静かにという案内文があるので、シャワーは基本的に10時までにしか入れないと思っていたほうがいいです。もちろん、ドライヤーも寝る場所と同じところにあるので、10時以降は使えません。私は朝起きてシャワーを使いましたが、他にもシャワーしたい人がいたので、時間帯によっては混むかもしれません。おしゃれなカフェやレストランが並ぶ地域に位置してるので、立地は最高です。ホンデ駅からも比較的近いと思います。働いてるお兄さんも親切でした。

不錯

Embrouille avec le maitre d'hôte qui a oublié de me donner les codes d'accès. Il n'est froid en tact donc n'est pas agréable,il ne parle Pas l'anglais ni le français. Il m'a fait du chantage que je devais payer plus pour le dédommager d'avoir deranger les clients parce que je me suis trompé plusieurs fois de chambre car il était absent.

홍대 호스텔 후기
숙소는 깔끔합니다 개인방마다 티비도 있고 화장실도 있어서 이부분은 다른 게스트하우스에 비해 편했습니다! 다만 세안도구(샴푸,린스,바디워시)가 없어서 따로 구비하고 가셔야합니다! 그리고 저희 잘못이 아닌 게스트하우스측 잘못으로 그곳에서 잠을 못잘뻔했습니다. 연락도 바로 전날 받았구요. 환불대신에 다른 게스트하우스를 잡아준다는줄 알고 알겠다고 했지만 알고보니 그 게스트하우스에 우리가 먼저 돈을 내고 몇일뒤에 환불이 되는 시스템이 더군요. 이 부분은 너무 불편했습니다 여행 일정 돈이 딱 정해진 사람들이라면 이런 상황이 오게되면 오히려 당황 스럽더라구요. 그래도 다행이 다른방이 생겨서 그 곳에서 자기는 했지만 게스트하우스측에 잘못에 대한 처리 방식이 별로였습니다. 수없이 많은 게스트하우스에 다녀봤지만 이런식으로 처리하는 곳은 이곳이 처음이러 더 당황.. 그것 빼고 시설은 정말 좋습니다!!
