This is a cozy place very near Myeongdong station. The room was clean and near shops, restaurants and transportation. The only downside is that you need to bring your luggage uphill for a bit. I would definitely stay again

The single room was filthy, especially the layers of dirt and grime on the window blinds that showed it hadn't been cleaned in years. Many signs mentioned coffee in the breakfast, but there was none. Luckily, another traveler had their own supply, and kindly shared it. Staff were hard to find without a phone call, which is not an option for all travelers.

非常に最悪です。 ゲストハウスとあり、スタッフの不在時間が多いのは仕方ないですが緊急時に表示されている電話番号に連絡しても一切繋がりませんでした。 今回、自身の不注意で午前8時頃に部屋のドアをインロックしてしまい、フロントに書いてある連絡先に電話を掛けても全く繋がらず1時間程フロアで待機する事になりました。 どうしようか迷っている時にスタッフルームにスタッフ2名がいる事に気づき部屋をノックしてインロックしてしまった事を伝えたのですが、午前11時までは勤務時間じゃないからと20分程対応して貰えず、しばらくして部屋から出て来てようやく合鍵を探す始末でした。 おまけにその部屋の合鍵を持っておらず、似た鍵でなんとかノブを回して中に入る事が出来ました。 スタッフは終始不機嫌で電話に出れなかった事に対する謝罪も一切なく、物凄く気分の悪い滞在になってしまいました。 滞在中、他のお客さんも何度もスタッフを探していて対応に困っている様子でした。 作りが古いのもありユニットバス？のような浴槽は水漏れもしていて衛生面も劣悪でした。 朝食付きとはいえ、10部屋以上あるのに置いてあったのは一袋の食パン、6つのカップ面、少しのシリアルと牛乳のみでした。 1泊3万2千円、今後二度と宿泊する事はありません。

他の方の口コミとおり、チェックイン時には、レセプションに誰もスタッフはおらず、名前と部屋番号の書かれたメモ、キーが置いてあり、セルフチェックインとなります。 韓国人は、曖昧な説明でも対応できるのかも知れませんが、各国の方々は、事細かなインストラクション(例えば、タオル交換、部屋清掃が必要な場合は、ドアノブに、デスク引出し内の掲示札を使って、ドア外に意思表示するなど)がないとわからないです。 建物は古く綺麗とは言えないですが、タオル、ベッドは清潔。 残念なことに、部屋の洗面の配管が繋がっておらず、洗面からの水が床にダダ漏れだったのは問題と思います。 あと、浴室の電灯が切れたことをスタッフに伝えたが、「確認します」と言った後に、結局対応してくれませんでした。 地下の食堂には、朝、食パンとカップ麺が置いてあり、セルフサービスとなってたのはありがたかった。 また、地下には洗濯機があるが、フロントに記載の問い合わせ電話番号(オーナー？)にかけて確認した際には、洗濯機使用不可と強く言われましたが、ゲストハウススタッフに聞くと自由に使って良いとのこと。 最後に、宿泊レビューにゲストハウスについて良いことを書いてくれると約束した人には、無料で焼酎プレゼントとの記載があり、不適切だと思いました。

チェックイン前、荷物を預かってくれます。明洞まで徒歩圏内で立地が良いです。明洞駅から徒歩で普通に向かうと、坂がかなりキツいので、まずは南山公園と南山駐車場を目指して、エスカレーターを見つけてください。それを利用すれば、楽にホテルまで移動できます。スタッフさんは英語は通じます。日本語は通じません。また、基本的には留守です。ルームメイクの時間帯は、いらっしゃるようです。部屋は清潔感ありましたが掃除を依頼するタグが部屋によっては無い為、連泊の場合はメモ帳など持っていって貼っておくと良いと思いました。
