    You cannot beat the location; a little off the main street so it's not crazy loud at all hours of the day. The interior was cozy and the room was equipped with everything you might need.

    What I liked the most is its location. The place is near Hongik Univ Stn. Exit 3 and the main shopping street so it has many restaurants and shops nearby. Next is its affordability. As a solo traveller, the price is still worth it for a solo room....

    First stayed in UWA back in 2016 and now it has always been my top choice for accommodation every time I come to visit Seoul. It’s cosy, has a feel-at-home vibe, and very accessible to shops and the subway.
