John from Ireland (9/10)
The guesthouse is located in a great area. It is quiet with a lot of cool cafes and restaurants close by with just a couple minutes walk. It’s all very close to Hongik University train station and lots of other shops and interesting markets in the Hongdae area. There is Korean breakfast cooked fresh every morning. The hosts are nice and helpful.
Camille from United Kingdom (9/10)
Located about a 5 minute walk from the metro stop and the Hongdae shopping street, GGH was perfect for the last few days of our visit to Seoul. We arrived early and were able to store our luggage until the room was ready, which was great! The breakfast provided always had lots of options and despite being so close to the main shopping area was quiet at night which was appreciated.
Phoebe from New Zealand (9/10)
Amazing location close to Hongdae but in a cafe area so quiet at night with plenty of good food options nearby. Room was spacious and the beds were very comfy.
Highly recommend you get up early enough for the amazing home made breakfasts!Hurley from United States (9/10)
I stayed here with my friend, so we booked a room with two twin beds and they upgraded our room and put us in a room with two bunk beds for no extra charge! The bathroom was really big compared to other places. When we checked in, they gave us a cake as a gift.
