Reviews
Terina from Australia (10/10)
The property is located in a small quiet street, easy to access and a short walk to the nearest station. The property is clean and well styled, the beds and pillows were so soft it felt like we were sleeping on a cloud! It is on the smaller side but was very suitable for us as there was two persons and we weren’t at the accommodation much. Taxis can drop you off to the front easily but we felt very safe for two girls at night. There is a 711 about a minute walk too. The host is wonderful!! Super friendly and helped us with our directions to navigate the train lines when we landed. Thank you very much for a wonderful stay!! 😊😊
Abigail from United Kingdom (9/10)
We loved the apartment – super clean, very modern and cosy. There was lots of amenities (steamer, coffee machine, lots of lighting, TV, modern bathroom, comfy bed, aircon throughout). We also appreciated how big the flat felt, the second room was used as a place to store the cases but could be good for a family too. They provided eggs, milk, ramen and water for us which was a very kind touch.
Katarzyna from Poland (10/10)
Samodzielne mieszkanie, wyposażone we wszystko co może być potrzebne (szybkie wi-fi, głośnik do muzyki, naczynia kuchenne, kosmetyki, piękne książki dla dzieci po angielsku). Dwie osobne sypialnie więc jest to miejsce idealne dla rodziny lub przyjaciół.
Można się samodzielnie zameldować i wymeldować. Przylecieliśmy do Seulu przed godziną zameldowania i mogliśmy zostawić bagaże.
Mieliśmy świetny kontakt z Terry, naszym gospodarzem. Bardzo szybko odpowiadała na nasze pytania.
Dobra lokalizacja, blisko metra. Dużo restauracji w pobliżu.Kwak from South Korea (10/10)
위치도 아주 좋고 새로 리모델링하셔서 깔끔합니다. 라면, 커피 등 먹을 것도 구비되어 있고 침구도 깨끗해서 아주 편안하게 이틀 간의 시간을 보낼 수 있었습니다. 특히 가격이 싼 편이라서 가성비가 좋으며 방이 두 개나 되어 여러 명이 묵기에도 적합합니다.
