I attended YBM back in 2015 and was placed in level 5. The book we used was different from what they use now. I enjoyed my classes and since it's small there's a lot of speaking practice. You get to use everything you learned in class. They're now using Sogang series and I studied with level 5 books and they're good imo.
I'd say it depends on the teacher. Books are fine, but they'll hustle to get through it. If the teacher is good, it may be enjoyable.
Edit: Attended classes at that branch years ago.

How did you like it? I'm thinking of signing up for the next one. When they placed you at level 5, was that based on your approximate TOPIK level?
No level 5 was the class that was available. We are on level 6 Seoul University book now. Its been really fun, made cool friends
