Its close to the mrt

The stairs are kinda small, i know it’s hard to fix that but just want to say its a bit dangerous with the stairs especially with people staying in 3rd floor and up with luggages. And the central heating doesn’t help sometimes it will be awesome if they have a bed warmer. The staff is nice tho.

Loved the kind staff! Initially had problems with the booking (it was no one’s fault), and they coordinated with us well to resolve it and make the needed changes. The accommodation was also close to two stations — Yeongdeungpo-gu Office (Lines 2 and 5) and Mullae (Line 2). There is a nearby supermarket + a lot of convenience stores as well.

None really, I am highly satisfied of the service and facilities.

The person at the front desk was very attentive and even helped me to carry my luggage to the 3erd floor. The place is well located very near to lots of restaurants and subway station is like 2 blocks from the hotel. The place is very quite and I like the location. The room is perfect for staying one or two nights. Price is very convenient too!

Even when the room was clean, i think it needs a deep cleaning on the walls specially. I could hear when the other rooms were opened and closed so I kept waking up at night thinking someone had opened my door 😅

The host is hospitable and great at answering all your inquiries promptly & nicely. You can drop your bag before check in and the host even helped carry our bags upstairs, really helpful.The room is clean and big enough for the two of us and all our stuffs. Bathroom's also clean, towels and basic necessities are provided, plus there's hot water for showering. Very convenient, all in all worth your value of money.

Water drainage can lag a bit, so sometimes you'll have to wait for the water to drain or else the sink will overflow.

The location is perfect balance of local lifestyle and easy access to tourist areas. There’s a 5-7 min walk to the nearest metro station and you can get direct lines to the main tourist attractions, also Hongdae shopping district only few stops away. However if you would rather stay away from the busyness of Hongdae shopping you can head to Yeongdongpo, there’s three huge shopping centres and an underground shopping center. Also if you prefer to eat locally, I recommend Yeongdongpo and Mullae for good food and good vibes.

I was quite late with booking my stay so my room wasn’t the best, but the price and the location made up for it.

My room was more than adequate in size, very clean, warm and included a pretty comfy bed. The neighborhood in which is located seems to be quite quiet, especially at night. Consequently, a good rest is almost guaranteed. The restroom was also perfectly clean, water pressure in shower was excellent and body soap, shampoo and rinse were provided. Finally, the staff was very kind and spoke very good English. Because of all these reasons, I consider it very good value for money.

The stairs are a bit narrow and steep, which might be a bit inconvenient if one is carrying heavy luggage. I did not see any subway station around, but there are a lot of bus stops, so it should not be a problem^^

The members of staff are really nice and kind. They answered all my questions and helped me when I needed. The position of the guesthouse was excellent so it was easy to move in Seoul. It's near line 5 and 2, so you can go to Hongdae in less than 15 minutes! The guesthouse was really quiet and the district is safe during night hours. I really appreciated the laundry service: it was cheap (around 5€) and I got my clothes clean and dry in few hours. Wifi service was good as well. Also I was happily surprised when I saw free water distributor.

The kitchen is shared with other guesthouse's guests so sometimes I found it a little bit dirty. The room was dimly lit and a bit cold and damp.

The staff was genuinely decent and helpful! Very responsive and nice. I extended my stay easily. Check-in and out were easy and very quick. The location is really good near the subway and bus station, many convenient stores around. The kitchen area was good and sufficient. The bathroom is good and clean.

Room amenities were quite poor. I would've appreciated a small table. Also, the bed is not comfortable. If you have any knee problems, stairs could be a problem.

The location was amazing! Quite near to metro and bus stations. There were many convenient stores nearby and a very nice Japanese restaurant right next to it.

The common area was in repair so I couldn't use that place. But I guess it would be fixed after May 2024. Also in my bathroom the sink was spilling.

We loved this Guest House. The guy at the reception Brandon was so helpful, we were the first European guests in 2 years after the Covid-crisis, so he was really surprised we actually did show up from the Netherlands after we made the booking. We kept communicating during our flight with a stop in Qatar about the check in time and the things we had to arrange on the airport (Q-code and PCR-test). We were there just 7 days after the country reopened on april first 2022 and skipped the quarantaine rules. Brandon helped with everything and offered to be called at any time during our 2,5 week Korea trip to help us to translate if we had any trouble. The room was nice, I love the curtains with the moon on it. The bathroom was ok, just know it is a typical Korean shower your have to pull out, it it above the sink and toilet. The beds are firm, I always like that. Love that the room was darkened, to be able to sleep well after a long flight. We choose to stay there also the next 2 times we visited Seoul on our Korea trip and used it as a base. I think for the price of a double room here you get only a hostel bed for 1 person in Seoul. We also got a good deal for the last day when we had to check out for a late night flight and got a discount. The rooms differ in size, the room next to the kitchen I think is the largest. The hostel is not in the tourist area with the big hotels, though closer to the airport (1 hour approx by subway), and also close to the subway station where you can get around easily and to Seoul station in about 40 minutes. Just note that Seoul IS big and it will always take some time to travel between the hotspots. It is really easy to use the subway once you have an English map. In the area of the hotel there are enough shops and restaurants. So western people, please come to this Guest House. It is really possible to stay for this good price in Seoul. Just do it while you still can enjoy this local style part of the city with almost just Koreans.
