Guesthouse is truly located close to city center - just 5min to Myeongdong metro station. It's a bit uphill but easily walkable. Close to guesthouse you will find 2 7-eleven and on G25 shops. Down the street you will also find cafeterias restaurants. From the street there is a very nice view on the Seoul Tower, which is only 30-45 min uphill.In guesthouse you will find open kitchen with fridge and water dispenser.In room you will find all necessary stuff towels, hairdryer shampoo, soap, tv, WiFi, aircondition.

The pictures of the hotel that can be found in Booking also correspond to reality. That's why I rate the rooms 5 stars. The hotel is centrally located and close to the subway. You have to walk a tiring way uphill, but that's okay for me. In my opinion not necessarily recommended for older travelers. The self check-in worked smoothly for me.I encountered hotel guests at night for whom it didn't work. However, I don't know the background exactly and can't evaluate the facts.I was very pleased that there was a power plug adapter in the room.That's why I would rate the accommodation with 5 stars.

The only thing that's good about it is the location.You get hand towels for your body, small room, small bathroom with shower and bad smell in the hotel

It’s a bit tiring to walk a long way uphill😱The room is simple and clean. The smell from the shared kitchen downstairs is not very good when you enter. I hope the boss can pay more attention to it for the better.

If you are looking for a very cheap place to stay, regardless of anything, this is the place you would like. The inside of the building is not clean, but the room is okay. However, there are significant safety issues that I would rather not discuss here. Anyone who wants to know more can email me. Overall, I do not recommend this place.

Few things to bear in mind for this accomodation;1. Its uphill from the train station and a bit steep for luggage.2. Stair case is a bit narrow to carry luggage up to room.3. Host is not always on site at check-in time so need to communicate by whatsapp.4. Place is cold in winter, and needed to ask about turning on the heater.5. Shower water was not hot enough and once we complained the host some how managed to get hotter water to flow.6. It is a 1 star accomodation so we cannot expect too much.7. Ensure you ask the host for what you need.
