Christopher from United Kingdom (9/10)
Everything. Beautifully renovated Hanok in great location. Seongbuk is an interesting and exciting neighbourhood with many independent shops, cafes, bakeries and restaurants. Close to the city walls for hikes into the mountains. Host was very friendly and welcoming and provided excellent recommendations for the local area.
Lydia from France (10/10)
L'accueil chaleureux , la beauté du lieu, la qualité des matériaux , la décoration soignée dans les moindres détails et le calme et la sérénité de l'ensemble. L'emplacement, absolument pas touristique, nous plonge dans la vie quotidienne des habitants. Les petits commerces préparent des spécialités délicieuses et les commerces sont variés et bien achalandés. On peut y faire son marché pour cuisiner des plats coréens. Je souligne encore la gentillesse et la disponibilité des hôtes qui font tout pour optimiser notre séjour.
