It was my third time staying at Moon Hostel. I booked a bed in the dormitory on 4/F. The bed was comfortable. The cleanliness of the shared bathroom was acceptable and the shower temperature was consistent (it's very important during cold weather). Body wash, shampoo and towels were provided. The staff were friendly and helpful as always.||||The Hostel is close to Exit 3 of the Hongik Univ. Station. It is convenient to travel around with Subway Line 2, Yongsan line and AREX (airport express). It takes about 3-5 minutes walk from the subway to the hostel. You may get to the main shopping area at Exit 9, around 10 min walk from the hostel.||||Ramps and escalators are installed at Exit 3, so it won't be a nightmare if you're with heavy luggage. I was always leaving with bags and heavy suitcase so I particularly love staying at hostels in this area of Seoul.

Definitely recommend staying here if you are on a budget or looking for a quick stopover in Seoul. If you are wary of hostels then this place should change your...
Read morePoor service Reception only have staff before 10pm but you still need to call them to come down. Absolutely no one can help you after 10pm, no matter by call or by internet.
Poor security Everyone can come into the building 24 hours without a key. Luggage of checked out guest will be left unattended in public area without attention of staff.
Very poor hygiene Stain of blood on toilet blood! Lot or dust or hairs on furniture on floor. (Even I used to be dirty)
Poorly equiped room No bed sheet for one of the bed in twin one! ( One bed has, one bed doesn't ) And no staff can help! Ridiculous! Fridge is out of order and full of dust.
