The location was great. It was walking distance to the train station. There are plenty of shopping and food around this location. The breakfast didn’t have many options. It was the same food everyday. We booked 2 rooms and it wasn’t spacious at all. One of the room didn’t have a shower. Instead, it had a bathtub with a curtain. It was difficult to use the spray. Water would splash everywhere. Overall, the staffs are very friendly.

Within 2 minutes walk from Hongdae metro station, clean room though not exactly the most spacious (thank you for the upgrade) and overall very comfortable stay. No toiletries (other than bath gels, shampoo and lotion) provided because of sustainability reasons I suppose. On my last night two of the three elevators to the guest rooms were down at the same time so there was a bit of queue to go up to rooms but all’s good.

Convenient and clean

Location is very convenient, right in the Hongdae street. Shop and drop your loots back in Hotel. Staff is very helpful and nice. Room is in great condition just that this period there is construction at level with the pop-out store, so will hear some drilling.

Very close to the subway. Depending on which subway line you are coming from, there can be a short or a bit of walk to the hotel underground. Exit #9. Quiet, clean, and modern. Would stay here again. Breakfast was decent spread. Pro tip: Note that there are two entrances for this hotel: You can enter from inside Musina Standard Store on Yanghwa-ro street during the store's business hours (the hotel's lobby is connected to the back of the store), or the second entrance is the main entrance on Hongsik-ro street.

This was one of the easiest stays of all locations I've traveled. The train and bus stops are less than 100m away and there are countless restaurants, shopping, coffee shops, and olive youngs near by. The hotel has a great view of hongdae and has all of the amenities except for a pool... Not that you will go swimming in one of the busiest and fun locations in all of Asia. Highly recommend and you will not regret your visit.
