Great location, close to lots of shops, restaurants, etc but still quiet enough at night. The room itself was a bit run down, but clean. The mattress was very thin, so may not be suitable for westerners who like a soft mattress.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Super convenient location. The bathroom didn't have a shower curtain which was a little weird, but we kept the fan running so we never smelled any pipe smell. They provided a lot of towels so even though it was only hand towels (all the hotels we stayed at did this) it was never a problem. They had a water cooler out side so very convenient for staying hydrated.

Cheap and cheerful stay

The hostel is basic and has the necessary amenities. It is good for a short stay. The rooms are smaller in size. For the location and price, it is a good stay. I would say though that it will be helpful to co-ordinate with 7 eleven staff so that they know of the location. It'll be helpful for tourists.

Would really want to gatekeep this but I think people must know how great of a stay this place is. Pros: - Hospitality is top notch I have no words.🙏 - I felt safe staying there. - Quiet neighborhood. - Strong water pressure. Can still be improved: - Cleanliness - Facility is quite dated. Maybe a small renovation would be nice. - Mosquitoes

This place is a gem! Seriously, I had a private room and bathroom and it was exactly what I needed. There was a bathtub which was great for soaking after the freezing rain! Changdeokgung Palace is a block away and Gyeongbokgung Palace is an easy walk as is Bukchon Hanok Village. Close to transportation and wonderful dining options in Insadong. I am so glad that I stayed here! I was traveling alone and lost my wallet and the owners were so kind and helpful! There is a 7eleven steps away that takes ApplePay in case you need it, like I did!! The guesthouse allowed me to store luggage after checkout for no cost. It really is an excellent find!

1박 잠만 잘 숙소로는 괜찮은 곳입니다. 비록 화장실 시설이 엄청 옛날거라 샤워할때 많이 불편하긴 했지만요. 지하철역까지 가기에는 종로 식당가 인파를 뚫느라 안내된 10분내로 이용하긴 힘들어요. 창덕궁쪽 버스를 이용하길 추천합니다.

這是第三次入住，房間如從前都很乾淨，環境亦很清静。可能新冠疫情關係，今次入住已沒有早餐供應，出入也是自行按密碼。沒有當年可以和其他旅客互相溝通的溫馨情景和温暖，感覺這次入住有點冰冷，今次住2晚除了入住時見到付責人，其他時間看不見沒有人。這次入住硬件没有改變，房間整潔、光亮，改變只是感覺有點冰冷，沒有從前可以和店家們和背包客的互動。

空港リムジンのバス停から徒歩5分の場所にあり、すぐ近くにセブンイレブンもあるのでとても便利です。 仁寺洞、北村韓屋村も徒歩圏内です。 受付のお兄さんが温かく対応してくれて嬉しかったです。 部屋はちょうどいいコンパクトさで、清潔感がありとても気に入りました！ シャワーはバスタブがありませんが、トイレとの間にちゃんとビニールカーテンがあったのでトイレがびしょ濡れになることはなく、バスタブが無いことでむしろ広く使えてよかったです。 ただ、雨が降ると部屋の角で雨漏りしていたのが気になりました。リノベアパートのようだったので仕方ないのかな… 総合的にはとても好きな宿だったので、ソウルに泊まるときはまた利用したいと思います！

한가지 빼고 모든게 좋았던 ^^

긴가 민가하며 예약을 했는데^^ 방만 더 가능했으면 그 후에 예약했던 호텔을 취소하고 이 비원게스트 하우스에 계속 있을 수 있어도 좋겠다 생각했네요.. 위치며 안전함 또 가격대비 가성비 정말 최고 였어요. 창덕궁 바로 앞쪽에 위치한 게스트 하우스.. 24시간 편의점도 걸어서 1분거리에 있고 5분 정도 걸으면 익선동 또 한정거장 걸어서 인사동, 바로 길건너편으론 북촌, 최고의 위치에 있네요. 근데 한가지 아쉬웠던 건 밤에 복도에 불이 안 켜져 있어서 오가는데 좀 무서웠던~~ 계단을 올라갈땐 센서등이 있어서 계단쪽으론 자동적으로 불이 켜지는데 그 외에 복도는 불이 전혀 안 켜져서 새벽이나 밤에 오가는데는 사람이 전혀 안보이는데 좀 무서웠어요. 1층에 낮에는 오히려 불이 켜져있던데 낮보단 밤에 불이 켜져 있는데 투숙객들이 오가는데 안전감을 느끼지 않을까 싶습니다. 다음에 한국 방문한다면 꼭 다시 이용하고 싶은 숙소로 추천합니다!

Does the cat count as staff? Was very happy to see the kitty there. The hostel was terrific, and a great value too! The hostess were very pleasant and friendly; although to be fair, I need to learn more Korean. The location to 7-11, local eateries (non-chain) and tourist/historical sites were a very nice bonus. Location from a bus stop, and train were easy walking distance. Although I traveled during a hot (to me) period -- it's summer after all, the air conditioner helped out a lot, which cooled the room pretty quick. Plenty of room in the dresser for unloading my flight bag. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay of which I would like to see again, perhaps in the winter to see how it is.
