I had a pleasant stay at Kozayo.
The location is great—just a short walk to the subway station (less than 10 minutes), with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby.
The reception staff were polite and helpful. I was able to store my luggage before check-in (I dropped it off like8:30 in the morning😁), and they even placed it in my room for me.
The toilet and shower facilities were clean, and my bed had a high ceiling—no “boxed-in” feeling at all.

The bed was super comfy, and the facilities were clean and nice. The staff is super nice too. Awesome location. The only downside to this hostel is that they do not provide any lock boxes to secure your valuables, but you can always leave things behind the front desk!

What a wonderful experience for me . This are like capsule hotels in Japan , just that these are way better imo. I had a great sleep and the wonderful mattress was what I wanted , not soft and not
Too hard . The toilets are clean , with , the lavatory separate from the showers . The shower cubicles ,numbering quite a few , were spacious and clean!
Panda ( nickname ) was an awesome guy ! Friendly and polite and so welcoming . Whenever I go to the 2floor to sit and have a drink , he is always so friendly and helpful should I need something. Thank you Panda .. I will definitely book again when I am back this way

I loved this hostel, the bed is comfortable and pretty big for what it is. Access are also very secured as well.
The staff members are also very friendly and nice and accommodate to your needs very well.
The location is super as it’s located right in Hongdae shopping street, would consider coming back again here!

Cons:
Toilet is small
My room didn't have a working socket at all.
Pros:
It's in the middle of Hongdae Street so everything is a walk distance.
Reception is really helpful
Security for each floor is awesome.
Heat is fantastic lol

I had a nice stay at this place. The location is not too far from Hongik Univ. station, I took only 10mins walks to get there with my heavy luggage🥲 but staff was very helpful, he help me to stored luggage on the 2nd floor. Bed was comfy, love it! I would recommend this place for budget solo travelers.

Great! The rooms are accessed via a QR code that expires after check-out, adding an extra layer of security. The space was modern and clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable, I particularly enjoyed the adjustable settings. I also appreciated the partitions between beds, which provided good privacy. Most travelers were considerate and kept noise to a minimum, making the rooms very quiet overall. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay!
