This place was the perfect little stay for my first trip to South Korea. It was close to everything you can think of in Myeong-dong. Everything was in walking distance, it made my trip so easy to navigate. I felt vey safe in the area. The owner was super nice and informative. I would absolutely stay here again.

The location is excellent in regard to being close to the metro and excellent restaurants and coffee shops. The only negative point in the room is that the window shades do not keep the light out. As my room was facing the street, the street lights kept the room lit up all night. Overall a good cost-value ratio for its location.

Maybe I am asking too much for a 2 star hotel but this hotel only had 2 good things, one being the premium location, and two being the streamlined yet insecure check in process, other then that, there were several significant flaws, it had no elevator, so if you have several prices of luggage, the staircase was very narrow, the towels were unclean and irritated my eyes. I’ve never had this problem anywhere else. The ceiling was also very low, making it hard to live and stay in the room, and it was extremely hard to use the washroom after a shower as there was no way to shower without making the whole bathroom wet and slippery.

There was a problem with my flight. I sent a message asking for a discount on the cancellation, and they didn't even respond. It's a complete lack of respect and empathy for the customer. If I need to contact them, it won't be possible... terrible service.

Amazing guest house. Wont regret

시설이 사진보다 더 청결하고 좋았어요. 특히 화장실이 너무 깨끗해서 좋았어요. 위치도 굉장히 좋아서 몇일간 숙박하면서 불편함 없이 편하게 잘 있다갑니다. 무엇보다도 사장님께서 너무 친절하셨고 필요한 부분들을 적극적으로 도와주셔서 너무 만족했습니다. Generally the room was way better than it looks on picture. The location was also 5min away from the station, the host was super supportive and nice. I've stayed in guest house alot in seoul and I would definitely stay here again. Wont regret it.

泊まるならここ。

スタッフが日本人に対しても優しく対応してくれた。部屋は狭いがほとんど外で過ごしたのであまり関係なく、快適に過ごせた。床暖房も暖かく、ぐっすり眠れた。 ただ坂道が多いからキャリーを運ぶのが大変だった。
