Reviews

  • Nicole from Italy (10/10)

    First thing we noticed was how clean it was! Absolutely amazing, comfy and perfect for a two people stay

  • Eva from Sweden (9/10)

    Perfect location in Hongdae close to small shops and cafés away from the crowds yet also lively bars and shopping just around the corner.

    Very helpful host and a comfortable stay!

  • Antonia from Germany (9/10)

    The room was bigger than expected. It has everything you would need for a long stay (big bed, refrigerator, microwave, kitchen stuff, etc.).
    Also a washing machine and space for washed clothes on own balcony.
    It is right at Exit 7 of the metro, so no longs walks, especially with luggage.
    Bonus: bed sheets matched colour of the curtains.
