Amazing Stay, Amazing Friends
My girlfriend and I stayed at the YaKorea hostel in Hongdae during our first visit to Seoul in June 2018. We found out when we got there that the amenities are shared with the nearby Kimchee Sinchon Guesthouse, which was also where we checked in. The staff were very professional, friendly and even showed us around Hongdae. Akira and Dan were very accommodating and friendly. I would definitely come again and recommend both YaKorea and Kimchee to friends and family. Thank you everyone for showing us such a good time! We made memories we will never forget.

Not so recommended
A very worn out hostel. The room is big but bit smelly. Noisy at night when neighbour talked and laughed loudly after midnight. Not so clean, found hair on the bed. Towels and bed sheets are old. Around 10 mins walk from hongdae exit 4, quite quiet and dark nearby at night.
