    Richard was the friendliest and most helpful host. The location is great, right next to Seoul Forest, there are great cafes and cute stores around. Super convenient to go downtown as well. Great stay!

    The shower doors doesn't lock which was unusual for us as European but we never had any problems with other guest. The towel are korean sized but you can take more than one.

    The host was really welcoming and nice. The bedroom was comfortable and there are a lot of things you can use at will. The kitchen is big and you can cook.

    Unfortunately the boss sent me a message 2 days before the check in informing that there were a mistake in booking system. He asked me to cancel but it was difficult to find a place in Seoul on week end.fortunately he had a cancellation .

    Nice place, nice staff, nice location. The rooftop is great.

    It is not a problem, but the common area is in the rooftop and the wind is strong. In cold days it is more difficult to meet people because of that, but you can do it in the kitchen.

    The staff is great and they have a nice kitchen. Recommend it.

    Not so much. But if you are expecting there’s an elevator for your luggage, there is no elevator. 3rd floor is for private rooms & 2nd floor for common room & dorm room

    The location is near subway station (Ttukseom, 3mins & Seoul Forest Station,5 mins) & about 10-15 mins walk from the airport limousine bus stop..

    The only thing that I didn't like was that there were no windows in the room. In the morning it's very dark because there is no natural light coming and you have no idea what time it is. It is a minor inconvenience.

    The owner of the hostel was very nice and ready to answer all of our questions. He helped us with our luggage and provided directions to the airport. The room was bigger than most in Seoul, the bathroom was great and the room had an entrance area where you can leave your shoes. The location is close to the center and there are 2 subway stations that you can use. We loved the park and how close it is to the river and there were nice restaurants and cafes all around us.

    Very near the Seoul Metro. Very good of the room. 1) Room size is big. 2) Beds are big. 3) Light is bright. 4) Water is hot (good for shower). 5) Floor heater is warm. 6) Room is clean. 7) Accessories for the room is sufficient (such as towels, pillows, bedsheet, tissue rolls) Richard (Management person) is very helpful and nice. Really recommend to other travellers.

    The only bad thing I could say is the room had no windows and it was tricky to get to the top floor with two suitcases.

    The location was very conveniently placed, next to the subway. The staff was fluent in english, friendly and easy to contact and the room was spacious and clean.

    It would be a good idea to put a little closet in the room where you can put your clothes and other stuff, where it is possible obviously.

    The guesthouse is pretty close to 2 subway stations, in front of it you have a supermarket and a lot of restaurants. You can easily go to take a walk to the Seoul forest which is beautiful. Richard was very kind and helpful, if you need something he'll help you, he is also very funny ^^. I had a private single room with a private bathroom and it was all very clean.The mattress of the bed was new so it was very comfortable to sleep. For my next trip to Seoul I'll for sure come again :) . All the long way from Italy 🇮🇹 and it was a very comfortable holiday, thank you 😊.
