"Overall, we highly recommend this place. The price is very reasonable, even during peak periods like the BTS concert. We"

- The facilities were well-equipped, so there was no need to bring many personal items. - The location is reasonably convenient. You can walk from Exit 6 of Hongik Univ. Station (Gyeongui–Jungang Line) if you’re coming from the airport by subway. However, if you take the airport bus, it may be a bit far, as it stops at Exit 8 of Hongik Univ. Station (Line 2), which is farther from the accommodation. - The property is close to the Hongdae area, making it very convenient for shopping, dining, and exploring.

The walls are quite thin, so noise from neighboring rooms can be heard if guests speak loudly. This was not a major issue for us, but it may be a concern for light sleepers.

因為我是當天訂房,所以他沒有給我房間的密碼,然後加上我用不同的方法都沒有辦法聯絡得到他半個小時之後才就是請朋友幫我聯絡的到他,但那個時候已經需要去其他的地方了。 再來是房間非常非常極度的悶熱,有暖氣,但是沒有辦法有遙控器可以控制。在17度的春天裡,我卻像在住在30度的汗蒸幕裡面沒有辦法找到就是遙控器可以控制溫度,已經穿短袖還是滿頭大汗非常非常的糟糕。 還有衛浴看起來像沒整理過,衛生紙只剩一點

Хорошее расположение отеля, станция метро в 5 минутах ходьбы. Рядом много кафе и магазинов. Номер небольшой, но уютный, очень теплый. Отличная общая зона с холодильником, микроволновкой, кулером. Бесконтактное заселение, инструкцию отправляют на почту

"我平常是不留負評的,但這間真的太誇張,我認為需要給大家避雷一下。給一顆星都還太多。 1.在玄關的地方大淹水,鞋子全部濕掉 2.最最誇張的是,一進房間,床上有用過的毛巾(濕濕的)床也沒鋪好,感覺很像是有人剛睡過,附圖。 3.已經不是住地下室了"

"Overall, positive review. Recommended for 1 or 2 people travelling."

Good location. Quiet and clean rooms. Contact with management was quick and informative.

Unable to set the air conditioner to warm (being unable to understand Korean is a limiting factor). Although I did not ask about this via contact details (were I staying for longer I would have done so). Recommend they have information for guests wrt a/c controller.

La posizione è vicinissima alle fermate di metro e bus che collegano bene con tutto, ma soprattutto con l'aeroporto di incheon. Gli host sono stati gentilissimi e super disponibili.

Avrei gradito la presenza di almeno un appendiabiti, o una sedia, perché essendo che la stanza era piccola, abbiamo lasciato le valigie a terra per tutta la durata del viaggio, per il resto tutto perfetto.

"Great & cozy location"

10.0

Big beds and great, cozy location next to the park! About 10 min walk to Sinchon or Hongdae airport railroad station, so it was super convient too! Staff was quick to answer when inquired via kakaotalk too 😊 The bathroom was huuuuge with a bathtub, which is a luxury for Korea!

There's no smaller table, so it would be nice if they could add it to the room so bags & things needed daily don't need to be out on the floor! Being on the third floor without an elevator and the stair's outside, howevever the staff was kind to help me carry down my baggage when requested which was super nice!
