The bug bites

It wasn't good as I thought. A bug bites was really bad, and a sofa was smelled. It wasn't good experience. But the location was good!!!

Perfect property for a short stay in Seoul. Within a 4 minute walk of 2 subway stations and with a 7 eleven right next door. Very comfortable and clean property with all you'd need as a base for day trips around Seoul. Excellent communication from Kevin, the property owner, who responds quickly to emails. Highly recommended.

Great room for the price

For the price, Sweet Castle was great. It’s close enough to plenty of food options, shopping and the public transport stops (subway & bus). Although we didn’t use any of it, shampoo & conditioner were provided. The fridge had plenty of room although no ice trays were provided, (I’m from Texas...I NEED ice) so we bought some & left them for the next traveler. Only issues, I would get kicked off the WiFi over night & had temporary issues logging back in, but it would always work (eventually). The vent on the A/C could use a cleaning. There was also a nice roof patio where you could see the whole city. I’d stay there again.

Everything was so great Although it was very convenient to have a housekeeper come in every other day in terms of cleanness, it couldve been better if she came in maybe once a week. But otherwise, it was perfect
