“Staying in Hongdae, I found it easy to meet people in the common lounge areas. The shared kitchen was always a good spot for a quick chat while making coffee, and it often led to someone suggesting a game later. I felt secure, and the proximity to Hongik University Station made getting around Seoul straightforward. It was nice to have a quiet corner in the hostel to relax after a busy day, knowing there were always others around if I wanted company for a game or just a conversation.”
