Reviews

  • Ji-yeon from United States (9/10)

    The location was great because there was an airport metro line stop near the stay (about a 10-minute walk from the station). Additionally, that metro line connects to many major places, such as Hongdae (Hongik Univ.) and Myeongdong. The area is a local town with fewer tourists and many locals.

    It was a bit challenging to find the location since it is an old & small apartment, but once you enter the building, it's easy to identify the unit because it is decorated adorably. Inside, the apartment was super clean and cute (like their photos).

    There were a lot of mosquitoes during my stay because it was mosquito season (not their fault, as Korea generally has a lot of mosquitoes before winter). Other than that, it was an amazing and cozy stay.

  • Chandru from Germany (5/10)

  • Po1 from South Korea (9/10)

    너무 깨끗하고 곳곳이 예쁘게 꾸며져 있어 체크인 순간부터 쭉 기분 좋게 지냄 올려져있는 사진들보다 실제 가보면 훨씬 좋아요 추천하는 숙소이지만 저만 가고 싶어요 ㅎㅎ
