Definitely recommend this location for your next trip to Seoul. Great location in the center of where the action is. Surrounded by the best food, shopping and nightlife. This is a no thrills hotel if all you need to do is sleep and shower.

Loved how close we were to everything! Location is very ideal we found! Room size was not bad at all compared to other places! Room could use a good cleaning there was a lot of dirt and dust everywhere even found some on the corner of our bed when we checked in, bathroom had some mould and there are no elevators so had to carry all our luggage up and down the stairs. I think with some renovations this place would be excellent! Would comeback for the location 😊

The bed was comfortable, and the property was good for the price. It was close to area attractions, but the building was in an alley and difficult to find. There was no elevator.

鍾路3街の4番出口から徒歩1分程で立地がとても良かったです。3泊しましたが清掃は無かったです。ゲストハウスタイプの宿泊施設では個室に入室されることに若干抵抗があるので、逆に良かったです。リクエストすれば替えのタオルはもらえます。チェックアウトの時スタッフの方に会うことはなく、自分でゴミ出しだけして帰りました。また機会があれば利用したいです。

Very nice, very clean, would stay again. I was surprised that I never saw any staff, but we already had our door code so there was no problem whatsoever. Because our room got changed into another building due to maintenance/remodeling issues, they were kind enough to tell us beforehand and even gave us a bigger room with more beds and a kitchen. The guesthouse is located in an alley, so the surroundings gave me a sketchy vibe at first because we arrived at night. But on the day the street was actually filled with hardware stores.
