People smoke all around, so the indoor smells of smoke. There were three mosquitoes flying around my top bunk. The neighborhood is a chaotic party place with cigarettes littered all over the street. Only reason I didn’t give a one star is because this place is that, it could always be worse, and maybe this hostel is great for party people. It’s insanely cheap, 5x more affordable than hotels, it’s kept clean, the staff is friendly and earnest (ensures you pay the cheapest price among the platforms), but the whole place the overall mural vibe + occasional unexplainable sticky stuff on the top wall next to the bed just feels really uncomfortable. Hot as hell. Couldn’t sleep, left at 4 am, losing my key deposit but I don’t care at this point.Definitely doesn’t deserve best hostel in Seoul, no idea why it gets such insane ratings. Probably the worst/second worst I’ve been to in my life. I’ve been to around 10 hostels around Taipei and Tokyo.

Well... basically, I recommend not trusting reviews. The entire room is made of cold concrete, so you might be surprised if you visit a guesthouse in other areas. If you are considering this place because of its price advantages, I recommend Seongji Motel on nearby Gyeongnidan-gil. It's really hard to sleep here, so I ended up spending twice...
