Grand open Hongdae houes 4bdr 2bth

LOCATION - Location was good. It's not that close to Hongdae's main street, but not too far away either. I'd say around a 10-13 minute relaxed walk. There's a really good mochi ice cream and hotteok place on the walk going to Hongdae's main street :) - Has two close convenience stores for snacks, drinks, etc. - Close enough to bus lines and train stations. It would depend on where you're going how far you'll have to walk for the fastest travel time. I'd suggest buying a climate card, and then taking the bus to the train station (if you don't want to walk). APARTMENT - Apartment was very spacious and clean. This big of a place is pretty rare to kind in Korea :) - Kitchen was complete with pots, pans, utensils, garbage bags and water - I particularly liked the dining area and the open space layout. Great as the common area for everyone - Looks pretty much the same as the pictures HOST - Host was super responsive. I was actually the one who took a little longer to reply since I was navigating for the group and wouldn't notice the messages! - After 3-4 days upon checking out, I even messaged the host since I thought I left something in the apartment. They were still very accommodating and helped check (I didn't leave my lost item there).

- If you want to leave your apartment and have the Hongdae main street to be right outside, this might not be for you. You'll have to walk about 10-13 minutes. We didn't mind, though :) - I didn't realize that the apartment didn't provide towels, but our host was SUPER accommodating and provided some for us! Not sure if it'll be like that all the time, so better to communicate with the host a few days before you check in - We had a lot of mosquitoes in our room the first night, so the next day I had a quite a number of mosquito bites and even some on my face :( But the apartment had some bug spray, which solved the problem easily. :) - It was a bit cold in the apartment (we went during fall). But just ask the host for instructions on setting the thermostat

The house, bedrooms, kitchen and dining area and living room were very spacious, with sufficient bathrooms (hard to find in Seoul) that could accommodate a huge group of people. The kitchen had a lot of cooking utensils and pots to use. The house could also be accessed by elevator which is very helpful for our group (elders and young toddlers).

The bathroom ceiling is extremely moldy; the cups in the kitchen were very dirty. Appreciate it if there was a print out guide for guests to use the house e.g. garbage disposal user guide; hot water user guide; etc. All guides were only provided when asked upon and the response time from the house owner was not always timely. The house is located in a quiet area however we could hear the neighbors from other floors during night time.

Good location. Friendly host. Spacious

Just a bit. No large towels for shower and only small towels which also with a bit smell.

decoration and the location a clean house so modern everything is good in this house, I can say that this is they best comfortable house I stayed in in Seoul, and house owners they are super friendly they answer very quickly and they tried their best to let us feel so welcomed
