My friend and I stayed here for a few nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. We booked a room with 4 futons (as it was the only option left) and ended up loving it - it was such a cozy, comfortable space. The staff we interacted with were all kind and helpful. It's in a great location too, minutes walk from Insadong and easy to get to public transport too. We would definitely come back!

Better than normal Guest House

It’s mixture of motel + Guest house. Clean motel quality + guest house stacking beds. A little disappointing is only dirts below the bed or between furnitures. I recomment Tmap park or KakaoT Parking. Guest house suggested parking lot don’t have credit card support, and outdoor site. Expensive than another promotion supporting indoor parking lot.

Broke my back by sleeping on the floor. Thankfully by travelling solo I could use two mattresses on top of eachother but still I got bruises. No sight of any staff for 2 days. Automatic check in is great but if you have any questions you need to make a phonecall...of course you must have a sim in that case...and yes I didn't have one. Wouldn't stay again.

Gostei muito do quarto, banheiro, localização. So poderia melhorar no sentido de assistencia. Eles fornecem um telefone la para contato mais nem sempre quem viaja tem pacote de com chip de voz, entao seria bom um email para contato. Fiquei 3 noites e acabou o papel higienico e nao teve reposicao. O lixo do quarto tb nao foi retirado nenhuma vez. Tirando isso achei muito bom pelo custo beneficio.
