Coco Stay was wonderful beyond my expectations! It was clean and quiet and comfortable. It was close to a subway station and a greenbelt, which i found very useful. Host Min was also friendly and helpful. I will absolutely stay here next time I visit Seoul. I would live at Coco Stay if I could 😀

Coco Stay is in a great livatio location – nice and quiet but close to lots of great bars, restaurants, and public transport. The owner Min was super nice and helpful. She gave great instructions and replied to messages quickly. The room had a fridge, private bathroom, and some clothes hangers. There is also a small kitchen and washing machine.
