    The bathroom is a wet room, which means the shower isn't separated from the sink or toilet so everything will get wet. This is pretty standard for Korean hostels and personally we were fine with it.

    Super convenient location, a 5 minute walk from the airport subway line (all stop train) and about 10 minutes from Hongdae subway station. Self check-in is also super convenient, so it doesn't matter what time you arrive, also super easy to do. There's an elevator, washing machines, and the hostel is super clean. The owner isn't always there, but when he is, he's friendly and interested where you're from. The location is quiet and while you can sometimes hear other guests, it's not that bad. Will come again.

    Location is Perfect. Super close to Hongdae main area, by far the best area in Seoul. Lots of shops, restaurants, cafes. 2 minutes away from the metro station that connects you with 90% of Seoul attractions and both airports and literally 30 seconds away from a ton of Bus Lines.

    Mattresses were very hard, it needs to be stated more clwarly on the main pagfe that thingsd like towels, toothbrushes and toothpaste etc. are not included, and toilet paper must be thron into a bin in the bathroom which guests must empty themselves. There was also a hidden 10,000 won cleaning fee which, while not expensive, would have been nice to know at booking.

    Booked a two bed room for my mum and sister. Room and bathroom were very clean and well maintained, under floor heating worked really well and check in was easy.

    Rock Hard beds. Difficult falling asleep. We were 6 people and everyone felt it was too hard. Only slept because of the jetlag. But seriousely if only the beds were a bit softer it would have been otherwise perfect.

    Clean, sweet staff, and best location. 5 min walk to hongik university and very central.

    The place is near Hongdae. Tip: nearest exit is Exit 4 Place is clean, quiet, near bus stations if you don't like to take the subway trains, staffs are friendly. The place is also near convenience store, supermarket, restaurants and coffee. They also have a 24hr laundry shop in the ground floor. I like that the place is inclusive. They have a prayer room for their Muslim guests. Kitchen is common and it is also clean. Free water and use of kitchen so you can cook and enjoy the view of Seoul from their rooftop. (^-^) You just have to remember that they don't have free towels and other toiletries but these are something you can buy in the convenience store or in the stores in Hongdae. Overall, I'd stay here again.

    I'm ok with throwing away garbage by myself. The water drops from the holes in the bathroom ceiling as the draining from AC pipe.

    Great location, nearby bus stop and subway, just 5 minutes walk. At the centre of Sinchon n Hongdae. AC is good. Clean and comfortable room, and comfy shared kitchen. Very reasonable price.

    I just think the drainer in the bathroom needs a minor repair because after 3 days of our stay, it took a while to drain the water whenever someone is using it for a shower, unlike the first day when it worked fine. Nonetheless, I still consider this place one of the best accommodations I have experienced during my travels.

    The room was clean, and they had hot and cold showers. The location was near Hongdae, and if you're good at walking, you can walk to the hostel. There are a few restaurants nearby where you can eat, but they usually open at 10 am. Alternatively, you can buy food from GS25 for breakfast since there is a common kitchen available, which is also clean. The Ajusshi at the front desk (I think he's the owner) was kind and greeted us whenever he saw us.The hotel is also near the bus and train stations and has a lot of good places to visit nearby. We were so happy with our stay at this place, and if I ever have a chance to go back to Korea, I'll definitely book here again. They also have a laundry area, so you don't need to worry in case you need to wash your clothes. The lift was a big help too because it would be hard to carry our luggage, especially since we have senior and kids with us. Moreover, one thing we can't forget, which my son loved doing, was segregating the trash. This is one of the best things that I'm happy about because my son is now more responsible when throwing away his garbage.

    We didnt see much of the staff but it didnt bother me at all, as everything was just fine.

    Awesome location and great value for the price. We lived really close to Hongdae which is a super cool spot for nightlife, shopping, dining etc. Definitely recommend Boa travel house. Was also really pleasant to stay a 3 min walk away from hongik university, a metro station that makes it easy to get anywhere in Seoul (airport, city hall etc).

    There was never a room cleaning or someone who came to throw out the trash and provide toilet papers. Due to our ten day stay this is what we would have wished for but it was still a very good stay without the clean up.

    It was very clean and the room was newly refreshed so it looks very clean and there was enough of storage for clothes. It feels very comfortable to stay in the room.

    Everything in this hotel is great due to the excellent price. But I have to say if you check in after 3pm and try to open the key box with the password in Booking, that may not work. You can try your last four phone number. It'll work. That's my lesson after 2 hour staying in the cold late night.
