Stayed in a tiny room good for one person that barely fits a bed and a luggage bag. The balcony to which my window supposedly opens was used as a storage space and so there were a lot of mosquitoes as well. The facilities (public toilet and bath, aircondition, doorknob, walls and floor in the room) really need some maintenance. You are pretty much just paying for the location. Although it's not even quite near the subway. Other than that, you get what you pay for (or less) The staff is nice though.

Easy check in. Good accommodation for solo travelers. Hongdae street club is literally around the corner. Nearest subway is a 5-minute walk. There are only 2 bathrooms so it can get a bit hectic when a whole group needs to use it at the same time.

All was going okay, got there and they showed me to my room. Bathroom was about what i expected, after my first few nights they come in and tell us they put us in the wrong room and we may have to change.MAY. about an hour later a man whom i havent seen the whole time comes barging in yelling at us to change rooms, GO GO GO CHANGE ROOMS NOW!!! He moves us downstairs. And it was filthy. Bathroom/shower room was barely wide enough to stand in, no place to put your clothes or towel and the windows were transparent and people outside could see you shower or use the restroom. Needless to say, i packed my things and left will not be back ill sleep on the streets with the homeless before i come back. Oh and the "free breakfast" is frozen slices of bread inwhich you are only allowed 2 pieces.

No es recomendable

Costó ubicar el Hostel porque no tiene cartel a la calle; tampoco se especificaba el piso... tuve que pedir asistencia a unos vecinos. Los baños del cuarto piso tienen como desagüe del lavamanos, un flexible que está suelto; como la ducha está en el baño, el piso está continuamente mojado. El espejo está sucio y, en general, el aspecto del baño lo es. Las cuchetas solo cuentan con un almohadón y una frazada; no hay sábanas ni fundas; la habitación compartida siempre olía a humedad y transpiración. El quinto piso está mejor que el primero, pero la cocina tiene aspecto sucio; la heladera presentaba restos de comida. Las escaleras del Hostel tienen basura arrumbada y manchas de sangre que nunca se han limpiado. Durante el día cualquiera puede entrar al cuarto piso porque las puerta principal se encuentra abierta y porque el ascensor da al interior del Hostel.

Mamas and Papas guesthouse hongdae

on the lower scale of other guesthouses i've stayed at. the bathroom was the worst of the stay, being poorly maintained, with the sink drain draining directly onto the floor, without good drainage. this would cause me to have to straddle the stream while shaving and brushing my teeth. there were no towel racks.

Great but more friendliness would make this a do-n

This would have been one of our favorite places to stay on this whole trip (9 months) - great shared kitchen, make your own breakfast (no food limits with their groceries), and perfect location. Our only complaint was that the staff themselves were less than friendly, to the point of being very rude at times. It definitely didn't harm how great the place was, but was one of the reasons we chose to stay somewhere else when we came back to Seoul.

Localização excelente

Quando eu cheguei não havia ninguém para eu fazer o checkin. Por sorte uma moça que trabalha lá apareceu e me guiou até meu quarto, ela nem sabia qual cama estava ocupada ou não. O banheiro precisa de melhorias, o cano da pia está no chão, para escorrer água pelo ralo. Tem shampoo e condicionador para tomar banho. A localização é excelente, bem na rua dos bares e clubes. Perto de duas linhas de metros e tem uma terceira que vai para o aeroporto.
