Hotel right next to subway and more importantly the Airport Express train. One note on the subway, the hotel is just a few steps, literally, from the subway station, however if you want to #2 Green line you'll end up walking several hundred meters to the subway platform. But the below ground of Seoul is really cool with shopping and clean restrooms.

Location is really ideal as right next to the subway exit and connected to a mall complex. The main street in Hongdae is the back of the building so it's very conveniently located. During the first night, we heard some parties outside, but the rest of the week was pretty quiet.
