The staff was very pleasant. They also had a small kitchen and close to the subway line. I would recommend this to anyone travelling alone.

Uzair Pakistan

The owner is approachable, friendly and accommodating. Always trying his best to provide us everything we need like extra towels and let us use the vacuum. The place is very accessible to bus stops and train station. Also, the wifi works well and there are unlimited bread, jam, and coffee.

Bambiegirl Philippines

Host was very nice! If I visit Korea again, this may be on the booking list!! There are spots close by, and easy to get around to other places to visit. I would like to tell Mr.Kang Thank you for being so gracious and nice. My daughter left him a treat and he saw us out walking and gave us a Korean soda each!! He should be on a Kdrama!! Very polite and handsome!!

Jenny United States of America

Very near to subway and bus station. A lot of restaurants, convenience stores nearby.

Faiix Qatar

The host is very kind and helpful. The coffee is free 24/7 and the time for breakfast is not fixed (you can eat whenever you want).

Cha-chis Mexico

Free breakfast, though we did not have any cereals on the third day. Our room was spacious as well as the toilet. Water supply is good. Guesthouse is just a three minute walk from Exit 6 of Sinseol-dong Station. Changing of bath towels everyday by Mr. Kang.

Friendly owner. The beds are big and comfortable. The location is great because it’s near the subway station.
