Good location but too late check in time
The hotel is in a great location. Easy walking distance to many restaurants and sights of Hongdae. However check in time is at 6pm. We were only staying for a night so a very expensive stay for 12 hours access to the hotel. As the hotel wasn’t fully booked I asked if we might be able to check in any earlier than 6pm but was told we would need to pay for an additional night stay if we wanted to access the room before 6pm. It’s over priced for what it is as very small rooms so you wouldn’t want to stay for more than one night.

Terrible stay
Check in is 6pm which is insane and you have to pay 75,000 WON to check in earlier, it’s insane. Our first room had black mold all behind the bed so we had to request a different room. The room was so tiny and cramped. Would never recommend this place

The size of the room was definitely smaller than expected. It was quite a hassle to move around within the room itself, and if you are claustrophobic, this property might not be ideal. However, two distinct plus points made up for its lack of space - 1) The excellent and warm customer service provided by our receptionist. She is ever ready to troubleshoot for us and accommodate our requests. Thank you! 2) superbly convenient location. This place is literally a stone’s throw from the bustling Hongdae hangouts. Imagine big-name hotels like L7 and Mercure are just diagonally across from this property, you know the sheer convenience that would come out of staying in Hyoo Sik at a fraction of the price (and space) you got from L7 and Mercure.

Overall not bad just small
Overall it was a pleasant stay. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Perfectly located in the Hongdae area. The room was very small. I think 1 maybe 2 people would be ok. The bathroom did not have a separate shower just an all in one wet room (I know common in Korea). It was so small though that everything got wet in the room when showering.

This hotel is not for foreign traveler. More like local youngsters. The room I stayed, split design and down stairs has full sized bed, no space to walk around the bed. Not even one side. If they put the bed on top side, I could have space for luggage and space for seating.
I check in night time and I could tell they just clean the room.

Well located quiet hotel.
Really well located, nice and quiet with excellent blockout curtains and a HUGE TV. The common areas such as reception and any area with carpet are filthy. Carpets at minimum need a clean, really need replacement. Shame as the rooms are small but nice. The 6pm checkin is a joke, given they as for 50,000 won to check in a couple of hours earlier.

I loved the location and cleanliness. It was weird that the shower was in the bathroom with no separation from the toilet and sink. Everything got wet. Other than that it was great.

It is located at a gorgeous location near Hongik Uni. It turned out Hongik was the area I enjoyed the most —- it has everything.

I booked the standard double. It’s a tiny room, but manageable as a solo traveller. My main concern was the dirty walls and sheets.
There were stains on the pillow cases and on the bed sheets, including a yellow patch that looked unpleasant. It appeared the stains were poorly concealed by some white ink or marker. I asked reception for new sheets and they told me it wasn’t necessary as the sheets were clean and the stains were from the washing, not from other guests. Hard to believe.
Bathroom is tiny and water goes everywhere. There is mold growing around the tiles and shower head. The walls inside the room were quite dirty.
Location is great but I really had wished I booked elsewhere considering the state of the room and the relatively high price I advise other travellers to consider these issues.
