Stay HWAGOK

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was especially nice and very helpful throughout our visit, making sure we had everything we needed.

The whole apartment was clean and even more spacious than we thought based on the pictures. Rooms were clean and very nicely decorated, and the host was very kind and helpful throughout the whole stay!

We stayed in Stay Hwagok for 14 days in October. We were looking for a local home experience and not a hotel. The house is close to the Hwagok Metro Station and convenient close to shopping and groceries. The house lies in a very calm and quiet little street, yet close to the lively Hwagok area where there is plenty of shopping and places to eat. The house was equipped with clean towels, shampoo, bodywash, clean bedding and was very clean and functional itself. There was a washing machine with detergent available and the kitchen was also stocked with basic needs - such as salt, pepper and cooking oil. Before arrival we had a small issue with our payment, but the host was kind enough to help us sort it out and ensure our stay. The communication with the host was flawless. She was very kind, helpful and always very prompt in replying to our inquiries. After a few days with warm weather, it got a bit chilly and our host contacted us to ensure that the house was warm enough and guided us to use the automatic heating system. There was good space in the three bedrooms, common area and the kitchen. There was good WIFI and a big and functional flatscreen tv. There is a small terrace with an awning - we didn't use it due to the colder weather in October, but it gives a nice space around the house as does the the big entrance area in front of the house. The house provided a great local feel of living in Korea. If we return to Korea we would surely ask to stay in the same house again :-)

We could have used some more cupboards and shelves to place our clothes and personal items in the bedrooms. The mattresses have a protective plastic cover, which made some of the beds a bit hot to sleep on. A thin in between top mattress would have been nice. These things did not spoil our good experience in the house.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully decorated and stylish apartment in Seoul. The design and attention to detail made it feel both cozy and elegant. One of the highlights was the private little garden — a peaceful spot to relax after a day of exploring the city. The location was also great, with the subway station just a short walk away, making it easy to get around.

The host was very responsive and helpful. We got all the necessary information to get to the place. When we had any questions, she was very nice and quick in response. We really enjoyed staying in the place. We could see that the host really cared about the place and wanted her guests to enjoy their stay. The place was very clean, nicely decorated, comfortable. The bathroom seemd to be newly renovated. The location was great - it's close to Hwagok station, which is very close to Gimpo airport. Around that area, there are many shops, cafes and restaurants.

It was not what we didn't like, but I can mention that there was one bedroom without floor warming, so this room could get a bit chilly over the night. But there's an electric mat on the bed, so we didn't have any problem with that especially at this time of the year (during the day it was 15-18 degree, and at night it was 2-5 degree) In the middle of the winter, it could be different but I'm not sure.
