JSM Studio Hongdae

Loved the location of this property—right above Hongik University Station, which made getting around incredibly easy. It was also very reasonably priced, so great value for money. The owner provided very clear instructions on how to get there, and we had no trouble finding the place at all. Really appreciated that he kindly adjusted my booking dates when I made a mistake—it made the whole experience even smoother.

To start with, the apartment was quite different from what we had assumed based on the photos. There were no stairs or loft areas for kids—just a small room with two queen beds. The property showed clear signs of wear and tear: the flooring near the second bed was chipped, the bathroom cupboard wasn’t securely fixed, and there was mold on the shower curtain rails. Overall, it felt like an old apartment in need of refurbishment. The kitchenette was not really usable, as there weren’t enough utensils to prepare even something simple like toast. We were also asked to take out the trash before leaving, which is something we usually expect in Airbnbs, not places advertised more like hotels. During our stay, the toilet got clogged just from regular use with toilet paper—we had to unclog it ourselves using a plunger provided, which suggests it may be a recurring issue. The TV only had Korean channels and we couldn’t access anything else, which was disappointing, especially for the kids. Additionally, the strict warning about noise after 10pm (including mention of neighbours calling the police) made us quite anxious. With two children, including a chatty 8-year-old, we felt like we had to constantly walk on eggshells after returning from long days out. Overall, this isn’t a place I would recommend for families with young children. It wasn’t somewhere we looked forward to returning to after a busy day of sightseeing.

té una ubicació excel·lent i un accés fàcil a l'allotjament. L'amfitrió és una persona molt amable i sempre disposada a ajudar.
