Latest Review for Backpacker Friends

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

They picked us up within 5 minutes of our phone call, and stayed up late till 1 am just to see if we needed anything. Great location near in Hongik University. We were able to just walk home from a local pub at 1 am. Also gave us a free upgrade into their 4bed dormitory since no-one else was coming. They also walked us to the subway station in a terrential downpour. Can't say enough about the hospitality.

Weekend nights (Thurs-Sat) it might be too loud to sleep before late night hours since it is close to the nightlife of Hongik University.
