Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The property was fuctional and clean, but it is older building. Staff's friendliness made up for what was lacking in modern furnishings and accommodations. It is still a functional and reasonably priced stay for a traveler needing basic room and board. Close to shops and restaurants also gives appeal to the area.
Functional and accessible. Everything went well and the service is great. A little bit of paint was peeling, but at this price point, That's totally fine. Would stay again.
The rooms were a little dirty the walls could certainly be cleaned. My least favorite bit was being woken up by something moving around in the wall next to my head.

Reception wasn't great, very vague and unapproachable. There was no kitchen despite one being advertised and photos on this listing. Little things like lightbulbs and handwash missing. Fine for one night but just a grim feeling about the place.
It is a property specifically meant for non-Koreans. The bathrooms are generally Korean in style i.e. the shower area and the toilet are combined and therefore there is no wet/dry area in the bathroom. The sleeping area on the other hand is similar to a hostel you would find in Lisbon or Barcelona. As far as powering up your devices are plenty of sockets available. The WIFI is pretty strong in every room and in the public areas as well. It is located between 2 stations on the Metro on line 2.
I feel really safe in the guesthouse. They prioritize your personal space and privacy. The staff are outstanding. The room is neat and tidy. The price of using the laundry is reasonable, W8000.They accept credit cards as your mode of payment.
Wonderful place to stay for few days. I had my own room with its bathroom. If you like to interact with others, you can stay in the 6 people room. Staffs were very nice and their service was great. There is a train station nearby (approx. 10 minutes of walking - Yeongdeungpogu office station). Have many convenience stores and good and affordable restaurants nearby. Would love to stay here again.
The price is reasonable and room space is quite big compared to other similar hotel tier.
Downside is the provided towel is musty after several uses. The provided towel is available to collect at 2nd floor but it was run out most of the time during my stay so I have to use the musty towel for many days.
Great bang for your buck based on where we were. Super close to two subway lines located close to almost everywhere we were planning to go. Staff was super friendly and the room had everything we needed. Was surprised how quiet it was to sleep considering it was just as busy of an area as anywhere else in Seoul. Would stay here again!
The staff at this establishment is lovely and super helpful....the facility itself is clean and cozy and Impeccably locations in terms of transportation and shopping...it's a great place to stay
Great value for money accomodation. Close enough to a station, to connect to other areas. A few coffee shops and restaurants.
Room was clean and spacious. Shower hot.
The whole floor was highly heated and the remote to the air con was missing unfortunately. Bed was quite small and the blanket was barely enough to cover two people.
All in all would be happy to stay again.
I stayed in Apollo Guesthouse with my brother for 12 days in Christmas and New Year holiday, and it was nice and warm place. I had initially worried about being cold, but there was generous central heating that made the room always warm. This hotel is a small one, no lobby area and no daily cleaning, but the price is very good for the central location. Short walk to the district office area has many good restaurants - cheap and expensive ones, 24-hour convenience stores, juice bar, many cafes, pharmacies. It was very convenient.
