    There is no small lights or bedside table light, just one very bright white on the ceiling. The bathroom was smelly sometimes, we believe there is an issue with the shower drainage. The curtains are not full blackout so there is some light filtering in the room from about 6 in the morning. The shower sometimes was not as hot as one would expect. The bed could use a pair of extra pillows for reading.

    We got there before check-in time and the staff was kind as to keep our luggage in the morning while we were out having breakfast and exploring. The reception is very friendly, speaks good english and is helpful, with good communication and fast replying to messages. Our room was on the second floor and for 4 nights it was our home base in the city. Big enough, comfortable for 2 people, good AC and WiFi, the mattress was not very thick but surprisingly comfortable. The bathroom was efficient and had everything we needed. We made use of the laundry one time as they have an outdoor terrace were you can dry after washing, just 1000 wong for the soap and machine use, super convenient. The location is unbeatable, close to all the hip streets, shops, eateries and convenience marts. Short walk distance to the subway stations and bus stops, about 25 minutes walk to the popular Myeongdong area (must visit). There is also a kitchen were you can prep yourself some breakfast (you must provide your own ofcourse) before leaving to explore the beautiful city, we had Ramen or Samgak and tea/coffee every morning, super convenient. Overall it was an excellent experience and we highly recommend staying here either for shorter or longer stays. Excellent value and service.

    The staff were friendly and helpful. The room I stayed in was spacious enough for the two of us (two females), even with two large suitcases left open. Both the room and the bathroom were clean. The location was fantastic. Jongno Station was within walking distance (less than 7–10 minutes). There were lots of antique and beautiful cafés and interesting places to explore near the accommodation.

    The breakfast would have been better with more fruit and a salad than all the wheat bread

    Comfortable stay, rooms were clean. Hot showers. Easy transportation to wherever needed. Breakfast was eggs, a little fruit and a ton of wheat buns

    This guesthouse is conveniently located near major sightseeing spots and has excellent public transport access. Although the guesthouse is quite old, the rooms were clean enough. The contact and check-in processes were smooth. However, since there’s no cleaning service, I wouldn’t recommend it for a long stay, especially if you have a toddler who might make a mess. On the bright side, the staff was very helpful and secured a forgotten item safely.

    If you travel with heavy luggages and small kids, staying at the 4th floor maybe not your first choice as no lift available

    Location. The place is very close with the main attractions and (Palaces, Bukchon village), 7eleven, and the train station.
