Depends what are you expecting from a guest house. So that's why two stars are pretty enough from me. Maybe 2.5... nothing more.

Check-in was easy and the location is great - super close to Hongik station yet it's tucked away which made it quiet at night. It's also a short walk to the main Hongdae street. Beds aren't that comfortable but all have their own outlets and there are lockers provided in the room - although there is no key/passcode which kinda defeats the purpose.There isn't a main lobby/common area to hang out in which makes meeting people kinda difficult if you don't talk to the people in your dorm / aren't traveling with people. For that reason alone, I probably wouldn't stay here again but I had a good experience here.

We requested three rooms for six people. The sheets had hair, the pillows were stained, in my room, which was single, there was not even a towel. There was supposedly a WiFi in our rooms that we couldn't find. Dirty.
