Location was good, close proximity to Seoul Station and Lotte Mart. However, the floor heating device was erratic and not working well at times during winter.
Great location just across Seoul Station and Lotte Mart. Clean room with amenities including bath and hair liquid and even washing and dish detergents for washers. Comfortable beds but the spare mattress is very hard and springy. Pillows are flat.
Overall a great place if you can keep the place tidy and clean as there's no housekeeping. Really convenient next to amenities and transport.
Owner-Kang, is kind to give free upgrade, without me asking for anything. ;)
I booked for 2 double bed with 1 sofa bed room for 4 nights, he sent me to 4 double bed with 1 sofa bed room. I stayed at the 2 double bed with 1 sofa bed room for 3 nights before returning to Kang for another 4 nights. The room is much spacious compared to the room I booked. Love it!
Thank you Kang!
Pros:
Very near to AREX Seoul station exit - just 5 to 8min of walk to apartment. Which is also near to KTX.
Lotte Mart is just 3 to 5min of walk.
Con:
Needed a bit of walk from AREX Seoul station to Seoul Metro Line 1 and 4.
Easy communication with the owner. He is very helpful. Apartment appears exactly as in their website. It has a nice view from the 13th floor. Location is easy about 10-15 minute walk to Arex train and Seoul Metro. It's very spacious. Has enough clean kitchen utilities. Lotte Mart is 5 minute walk just across the street so it's a big plus. Cooking meals is very convenient. It has a washer and dryer in the room.
Room is clean. Towels and linens are provided anytime you need them.
It's very quiet. Room has very good noise insulation.
Our big concern was the refrigerator. It has a very bad smell just like rotten onions. We tried cleaning it. We got rid of the smell a little bit. We tried not to open the fridge as much as possible. Worst is when you open it in the morning.
Besides the fridge, everything else is very good. We can still stay in Kangs Duplex if we go back to Seoul.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
It was alright
Pro: location, spaciousness, amenities
Con: mold in the bathroom, the floor upstairs (in between the mattresses and walls) is not clean so there were bugs and hair everywhere
Overall speaking the location of apartment was quite ideally as we expected. There is unexpected weather due to Typhoon was heading Tokyo our flight had been cancelled and we cannot check in as per our original plan. We notice Expedia and apartment but they are not able to refund the first night......this is quite disappointing even we have the strong evidence that the flight was canceled by the unexpected weather. I am making my mind which is a lesson learned for myself, next time to make sure the hotel or apartment can refund the missing night in case of bad weather or flight canceled or using other provider to avoid this kind of lost and unhappy happening.
호스트는 매우 친절하였으며, 서울역과 가까워 편의시설 이용과 교통이용이 매우 편리하였으나, 침구와 슬리퍼의 청결상태가 좋지 못해 아쉬웠습니다. 샴푸와 body cleanser 가 구비되어 있었고, 생수는 구비되어 있지 않아 물을 구입하러 외부로 나가야 하는 불편함이 있었습니다.
The host is responsive and helpful.
Next to the seoul station and 7017, one can easily travel the city. The air conditioning is abit dusty, and cleaning need to be improved. All in all, it is a traveler friendly accommodation.
3명으로 예약 하고 당일 2명 추가 했는데도 바로 방을 업그래이드 해주셔서 편하게 지낼수 있었습니다.
주방과 세탁기가 있어 가족 여행에도 좋습니다.
밥을 해먹을수 있게 전기밥통도 무료로 사용할수 있었습니다.
난방 온수 온도는 각 방별로 조절할수 있어서 따뜻하게 잘수 있었습니다.
Very good location. Supermarket is just the opposite. Access to building and room is very convenient. Instructions provided are clear. Inquiries were replied promptly.
Ich hatte das Apartment zur Alleinbenutzung und da es Schlafgelegenheit für bis zu vier Personen bot (zwei Doppelbetten), konnte ich mich über zu wenig Platz nun wirklich nicht beklagen. Das Apartment lag im 14. Stock und bot eine wunderbare Aussicht auf Seoul. Die Kochnische bot alle Annehmlichkeiten, eine Waschmaschine mit integriertem Trockner sowie eine Mikrowelle war auch vorhanden. Ich bin rundherum zufrieden und kann Kang's Duplex nur weiterempfehlen.
nice hotel close beach and train station. It is no room cleaning service . you need to clean up by yourself and take all the rubbish to the rubbish collection point and put into the reclcle bin.
