Reviews

  • Ian from Australia (10/10)

    We loved the location being in a real part of South Korean suburbia with a street market, supermarket, coffee shop, eateries etc only metres away and a short walk to bus stops and taxis. The host provided clear instructions on finding the property and how to access.

    The apartment was spotless and it was really convenient having a full bathroom both downstairs and upstairs. It was also tastefully decorated with lots of soft lighting options all throughout.

    The floor space was extremely generous compared to other accommodation we had used during our trip (If you struggle with stairs this accommodation is not for you. Access to the apartment is via a lift however both bedrooms are upstairs). Not speaking Korean made it difficult to use TV's and AC remotes, Washing Machine, hot water temperature setting and floor heating etc however the host was quick to respond with clear instructions that were easy to follow.

    The free Wi-Fi is fast and there are external areas for quick drying of clothes if needed (if it isn't raining).
