Old and very cute, quiet, friendly and welcoming! And the area is absolutely perfect if you like a calmer environment but still want to be close to transportation, city, and tourist life. Main station and buses are incredibly quick to get to but the hostel is still far enough away where you can retreat to tranquility after a long day. I wish their was just a little bit more utilities and a tiny bit cleaner? there was only one washer and no dryer, but I can’t complain as a laundromat is just down the street and you can dry your clothes outside on drying racks if there’s no weather troubles (I was here during monsoon season)! I chose the private room, and it was wonderful and very spacious, definitely made for more then one person, I was incredibly comfortable, my sheets were a bit rough but I had a wonderful room, peace & quiet, close to hongdae, kind staff, and a roof over my head for a great price. Truly cannot complain and would highly recommend :D
