Seoul Station – 1 Minute Away – Cozy house Overview

You know what honestly surprised me about Seoul Station – 1 Minute Away – Cozy house? The name isn’t kidding around – I timed it from the front door to Seoul Station’s main entrance and it was literally 58 seconds at a normal walking pace. I mean, I’ve stayed at plenty of places that claim they’re “close to the station,” but this one actually delivers on that promise in a way that’ll make you question why you ever bothered with those overpriced chain hotels further out.

The place has this lived-in feeling that I actually found pretty charming – it’s not trying to be fancy or Instagram-perfect, but everything works and feels genuine. The room I stayed in had these thick curtains that block out the city light completely (trust me, you’ll appreciate this since Seoul never really sleeps), and honestly, the bed was way more comfortable than I expected for a 3-star spot. What really won me over though was how quiet it stays despite being right in the heart of everything. You’d think being that close to one of Seoul’s busiest transportation hubs would mean constant noise, but the building’s positioned in a way where you barely hear the street traffic once you’re inside.

The owner – or at least I think it was the owner – spoke decent English and actually gave me some solid restaurant recommendations within walking distance that weren’t just the usual tourist traps. There’s this little 24-hour convenience store literally around the corner where I grabbed snacks and drinks, which came in handy since I was dealing with jet lag and weird eating schedules. I’ll be real with you though, the bathroom’s on the smaller side and the shower pressure could be better, but honestly? For the location and the price point, these feel like pretty minor trade-offs. The 8.3 rating makes total sense to me – it’s not perfect, but it gets the important stuff right and doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not. If you’re someone who values being able to hop on the subway or catch a bus without any hassle, or if you’re arriving late or leaving early and don’t want to stress about transportation, this place is actually kind of brilliant.

Seoul’s apartments offer modern accommodations with contemporary design, perfect for families wanting to experience daily life in this technologically advanced Korean metropolis.
