Located in Seoul and with Hongik University reachable within 700 metres, Bunk Guesthouse Hongdae provides a tour desk, allergy-free rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi throughout the property and a garden.

Bunk, what a great find! Brian goes above and beyond, always greets you with the world's biggest smile and knows everyone by name. Great little common spots to relax and meet people. Love the simple breakfast, another great place to meet people and exchange ideas or stories over a coffee. And the location....! It is the best area, bustling 24/7 yet quiet at the hostel, so it's a win win. Stay here!!

Namdaemun Market is 1.1 km from the guest house, while Dongwha Duty Free Shop is 2.1 km from the property. The nearest airport is Gimpo International, 20 km from 318 Stay, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

The location not far from Myeongdong station. We reached early in the morning but they let us put our luggage first. So that easier for us to get around. Everything was there even though it's just a small room but equipped with all we needed including kitchenette with fridge, microwave, kettle, washer, iron, tv, wifi etc. There's also water filter and vacuum cleaner for everyone. I'm very particular about cleanliness but the place was clean and neat. I liked it. There's also simple breakfast at the roof top but I never been there. Only my son been there for eggs and milk. The other food we not sure about the halal status, so we didn't have it. Amy was very kind and great host. Since we're Muslim and need to prepare halal food, she let us cook and bring all needed despite her 'no cooking' rules. Truly appreciate her kind understanding. Will definitely come again if I visit Seoul. Amy..thanks so much.

    Great location, clean spacious rooms, simple design, quiet nice neighborhood. The manager is very very nice and polite, they kept my luggage while I was away for couple of days. I went back to same guesthouse afterwards. Definitely recommended, very helpful, very close to airport shuttle bus. Close to one of the main palaces, and Hanoek village.

    Momo is a very kind host. She was very helpful, and we managed to communicate well even with our language barrier. The guest house is incredibly central, only a 5min walk to Myeong-Dong station. The central location made it easy to get around, and even with the window open at night, it was surprisingly quiet. I would definitely stay with at Soo Guest House again.

    I normally don’t really write reviews but this was such a comfortable stay! David is an incredible host and helped us with an appointment at the doctor when my friend had issues with hearing. The guesthouse is on walking distance from a lot of places and if you dislike walking a lot, the metro is right outside the door as well. Many breakfast options, many dinner options and a good quality stay, and not to mention quite cheap for all the facilities and surroundings!

    The guest house is located within five minutes from main shopping streets in Myeongdong. Around there is a plenty of cafes and shops. However, at night it is very quiet. The room was small, but convenient and clean. The host replied promptly to all the questions.

    enjoyed my stay at YAB guesthouse! chris and simon are great hosts - they were quick to respond to messages and help with requests. the guesthouse itself is in a great location in hongdae - near the main strip (but never got too loud at night!) and a 3 min walk from the subway. rooms are slightly smaller than expected but the beds are comfy and you still have enough space to move around. there’s a common area too which was nice! the guesthouse felt busy but there were never major queues to use the bathroom/kitchen area.
