Wyjątkowe miejsce. Spokojna dzielnica ale blisko centrum, ze wspaniałym widokiem na góry. Niezwykli gospodarze, doradzający, wspaniałe śniadania przy wspólnym stole - czułam się lepiej, niż we własnym domu.

Za krótki pobyt:)

"One of the best"

10.0

After reading reviews for this guesthouse, I decided to book 4 nights and it turned out to be such a memorable time for me. Mr. and Mrs. Kim went above and beyond my expectations. My room was very clean and well made, prepared with a traveller's needs in mind. I could find everything I needed and more in the modern bedroom and bathroom. I stayed during Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving) and they threw a big dinner and party with games. Mrs. Kim cooked so many authentic delicious Korean foods that everyone had seconds and there was still a lot to spare, it was an amazing hospitality that I've never had elsewhere. Every morning, Mrs. Kim cooked breakfast and all guests sat together and chatted about their past day and current plan for the day, which helped me get to know other guests and to shape my own itinerary around Seoul. The guesthouse is located minutes away by 1 bus (or 30 mins easy walking) from the Gyeongbokgung Palace, which is close to other attractions and only steps away from the buses and trains to go to other places in the city, so the location is perfect. There were restaurants and convenient stores near it, too. They were very generous with their knowledge around things to do. I received excellent recommendations for walking trails, night markets, and how to connect the buses. I felt really taken care of and their guesthouse really felt like home to me. Thank you for such a wonderful stay and I will definitely come back! And I will tell at least 100 of my friends to stay with them! (Inside joke, haha).

That I didn't stay longer with them.

"expérience géniale, hôtes adorables"

10.0

Les hôtes étaient adorables : disponibles, serviables, accueillants. Ils débordaient de conseils utiles pour manger sur place, pour visiter des lieux et pour mieux apprécier la culture coréenne. Nous avons eu la possibilité de laisser nos bagages le jour d'arrivée ainsi que notre jour de départ. Le petit déjeuner (à 9h) est absolument super, authentique, fait maison et servi avec bienveillance et bonne humeur. La chambre au rez-de-chaussée-de-chaussée était très confortable (les lits aussi, parce que nous apprécions les matelas durs) et bénéficiait de sa propre salle de bain (des produits de douche très agréables) et une petite terrasse. Une cuisine complète est aussi à la disposition. Emplacement idéal pour découvrir les montagnes autour de Séoul, et les palais royaux (Gyeongbokgung en tout cas) ne sont qu'une trentaine de minutes à pied (ou une vingtaine minutes en bus direct) de la maison. Un quartier tranquille dans la banlieue de Séoul qui était sympa à découvrir (avec de très bon restaurants et salons de thé). Nous remercions chaleureusement nos hôtes, et conseillons à celles et ceux qui y vont, de rester au moins deux nuits pour profiter des alentours et de la gentillesse des hôtes.

Il ne s'agit pas de "ne pas apprécier", il faut juste savoir que l'accès est un peu compliqué en transports en commun, surtout si vous arrivez avec des bagages. Il vaux mieux prendre un taxi (les prix sont raisonnables), puis vous avez cinq à dix minutes de marche sur une colline pour arriver à la maison. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le fait que ce soit des chambres d'hôtes, mais toutes les personnes qui y restent ne sont pas toujours très sensibles à la vie en communauté, et peuvent faire du bruit dans les chambres à côté et dans les espaces communs. Ceci n'a rien à voir avec les propriétaires ; c'est une question d'éducation et de sensibilité de la part de celles et ceux qui viennent y séjourner.

オーナー夫妻が親切でフレンドリー、他の滞在者の方とお話ししながら食べる朝食がとても贅沢な時間でした! どの料理も全て美味しかったです! インテリアや家具も素敵だし、静かで自然も豊かな場所で癒されました。 バスルームも清潔ですし、バスも慣れれば難しくありませんでした。
