Batwo Stay - For foreigners only

Nice staff, convenient location, free breakfast and not expensive.

It is so good that you shouldn’t book late.

Really close to the center of Hongdae and the hostel itself is very clean！

Really nice place and owners are very nice and helpful.

The only positives are the great location and that it is a very social hostel where you can meet other travelers.

We booked a room with three beds, but it turned out to be in the basement, which we didn’t know when booking. The basement rooms have no windows, which makes them feel closed in and uncomfortable. It was also very humid, so we had to keep the dehumidifier and AC running all the time — both are quite loud and made it hard to sleep. The ceilings are very low; at 172 cm I could touch them. Probably the upstairs rooms are better. We stayed for three nights and never saw any staff, so if you need help there is no one around. The breakfast is not worth it — you have to make it yourself in the kitchen, and the options are very limited.
