Finding the entrance may take some time, but it is just the pathway under the flyover then turn right to the alley. There are a lot of food open at night around and can hear people karaoke but not noisy. The host is nice and there is only stairs for reference. I enjoy very much

It's a great Guesthouse option. The staff was quick to respond to requests and inquiries, and were able to get us what we needed. It is a guesthouse though so don't expect a full service hotel. Very convenient location to walk to attractions and super easy to hop onto the subway. Great food options within a 5-10 minute walk.

4泊利用しました。 ソウル駅から地下鉄1号線で3駅、12番出口(エレベーターあり)から徒歩4〜5分。フロントは2階でエレベーターが無い為、客室は低層階をリクエストしたら3階にしていただきました。 チェックイン時にスタッフが誰もおらず名前、部屋番号、パスワードが記載された紙が置いてありそれを見て部屋に入りました。 パスポートやデポジットは不要でした。 部屋やバストイレはとてもキレイで清潔でした。 広めの空間にシャワーとトイレと洗面台があり床はすぐ乾きます! 部屋はスーツケースを広げられました。 駅周辺は飲食店が沢山あり快適に過ごせました! 次回もまた利用したいです。
