Hotels in Yeonnam-dong, Seoul

The location is good

The neighborhood

Hospitality and rooms were comfortable

Our hosts were fantastic from start to finish, always very communicative and in close touch concerning any questions we had. They made check-in and check-out super easy, including safe storage of our luggage when desiring to pick it up later in the day after check-out. The beds were very comfortable, bathrooms were super clean, and the air-conditioning was perfectly easy to control for the different personal tastes of our group members.

Good location in Hongdae not far from Hongik University Station, though with luggage the walk can be a bit long. Nice that there is a washer and detergent for use and there were lots of little details provided included charging converters. Beds were comfortable and the AC was nice and kept the rooms cool. Wifi worked well.

-How kind the staff are -Room was great -Near a convenience store

The host was very communicative and responsive. He even met us when we arrived to show us how to use the keypad, explain the trash and recycle separation, and helped us bring our luggage upstairs. No keys required. Access is via keypad, which was very convenient, and one less thing to carry around. The apartment has 3 bedrooms, and 4 beds. It could comfortably sleep 8 people, if sharing a bed. We had 5 adults, so everyone had their own bed, except my husband and I, which was perfect. All the bedrooms are pretty spacious. Even with our suitcases in the rooms with us, we did not feel cramped. There aren't any dressers to unpack and put away your clothes, but we found if we unzipped our suitcases, they would store underneath the bed and we'd just slide them in and out when we needed them. The washer machine is modern and BIG, but I wouldn't recommend doing large loads, as there is not much space to hang larger loads to dry. There is plenty of space to hang a regular sized load, though. The location is just perfect. It is VERY close to Hongik University Station, Exit 3, so it's easy to access the subway to go anywhere you want. The street where the apartment is located is very quiet and well maintained, even though there are shops and restaurants in the immediate area. So much to do and see, yet very relaxing at the same time; It's the best of both worlds. And if you like salt bread, Jayeondo Salt Bread is less than a 5 minute walk from the apartment, there is rarely a line, and we got salt bread for breakfast EVERY morning! I highly recommend Hoi House, and we will likely book it again for our next trip to Seoul, unless we decide to stay in a different area.
