    Functional place to stay, well-located

    "Breakfast" is one pot noodle per stay (not per night); there is a bar in the cellar that is a bit noisy; depending on which bed you are in, the light from the hallway might shine right on you if someone opens the door to go to the toilet.

    Well-situated hostel with functional beds, showers and kitchen.

    Air conditioning was very old and struggled but they had new fans in the room which made up for it.

    Everything was very good , breakfast was noodles and coffee which ok . The room was good , very comfortable with a big bathroom . Location was excellent only a stones throw from the entrance to the fortress. Nice area and it was very safe.

    It's really spacious (kitchen and living room). The owner was cute and receptive. I discovered later that you can use washing machine and dryer for few won, a good point. It's near transports and attractions (fortress, park, and markets). After the chicken street, I decided to follow the river, and I was amazed to discover the Gwanggyo Reservoir with the sunset. I recommend this guesthouse, you can do everything on foot.

    If I must find something I would point out that the guest house is on the first floor (well second for Korea since for them first floor is ground floor) but not lift ! But first floor is still ok I think, not too much stairs to climb with a bit suitcase, I have done way worse. Also, as many have already said in previous comments : not really « breakfast included » a plastic bowl of instant ramen is on the bed with towel and sheets when you arrived. But, hey, I needed something energetic to climb the fortress and didn’t have any food with me so I’m not going to complain too much. It’s just a strange breakfast !

    Very well situated, 5 minutes walking from the palace and the south gate There are 4 beds in the room, big windows one the whole wall facing the streets (3 layers : transparent, opaque, and with an insect net, you can choose which one you want), and big curtains to block the light. There are many electricity outlets next to the bed, and I really like the heating system connecting to a small blanket that goes under you (be careful it does not go off automatically after some time ! If you don’t stop it will continue to be warm, fire hazard ? I don’t think it’s hot enough for this but we never know !) The bathroom is more or less clean, and big bottles of body liquid soap, shampoo and conditionner are available in each shower (2 showers for girl’s section). There is also a fridge, and a kitchen with appliances to cook, and a machine for cold and hot water.

    Ramen isn't breakfast for most international guests. If that's all you can offer for breakfast, kindly make vegetarian ramen available as well. I wasn't allowed to use the AC unless I paid more. Even in the lobby, the receptionist didn't turn on the AC. It was really hot. Bathroom/shower room could be cleaner

    Good location! Great price!

    Shared toilet+shover+toilet in one little room with curtains. WIFI didn`t connected to my Laptop, on smartphones ofteenly disconnected. Bad soundfree door. Electricy for an air conditioneer was few times turned off and at the day we could not use it. When we checked into the hotel, we were given two ramen. This turned out to be our breakfast for the morning. However, on the second morning, we were not given the second set of ramen. 😂😂😂 Anyway if you travel alone (not with a wife or gf) its a good choise for that price! ✌️

    Location, early check in, big and scilent bed. 👍👍👍 Host speaks english well!

    Only 1 male toilet and 1 female toilet to share. But be an issue if the other guests take a long time in there. Bathroom could use a bit of a facelift.

    Convenient location near the start/end of the routes of the Fortress walks.Also very near the Fried Chicken Street and markets and eateries. Bus stop to Intercity Bus Station just outside guesthouse.

    My room didn't have an outdoor view so it felt slightly suffocated. Apart from that it was ok.
