Guest Reviews

• Lenomta (10/5): - Location is superb plus staff we met are so friendly and accomodating. Clean and quiet environment! None so far
• Lenomta (9/5): -
• Lenomta (9/5): -
• Sharad (9/5): -
• Zuzanna (10/5): But overall one of the best hotels I tried in Seoul - The location is very convenient. The area is very flat + elevator at the hotel, so great for big luggage. A little bit transparent walls/ celling. You can hear neighbours next to the room and above.
• Myra Natasha Lau (8/5): nice stay would recommend! - very close to metro and airport limousine station, accessible to almost all places easily poor soundproofing
• Thayssa (9/5): -
• Selim (9/5): -
• ZNMShah (9/5): -
• Thainá Cristina (10/5): Would go there again! - Easy access. Very close to the subway station and many stores and restaurants around. Perfect location! The staff was always very kind and helpful
• Beatriz (10/5): - Localização excelente. Cama confortável, chuveiro muito bom. Disponibilidade de toalhas, café e água.
• Adilet (10/5): Очень удобно всё для туриста - Да прямо в центре! Великолепно! Пешком можно посмотреть все достопримечательности города Уют, чистота
• Yajaira (10/5): -
• Daniel (4/5): - Bed was very comfortable, location was good. Mild odour from outside, but above all the fact that a hotel in Myeongdong won't let you flush toilet paper in the toilet but instead make you put it in a bin is insane. Not what I expected for Korea, especially in the heart of Seoul. Especially when for the same price you can find better hotels nearby.
• MIDORI (6/5): -
• Kateřina (8/5): Value for the money - Location was perfect everything near by. Great value for the money. Bigger towels would be perfect
• Norlida (9/5): - Very very strategic location in myeondong, 2 min walking distance to airport bus stop & myeondong subway station and closed to all attractions and halal restaurants. Tq
• yossawadee (9/5): Reasonable price, good location and friendly staff - Location was great. Friendly staff. Wall is thin. I can hear everything surrounding such as the room next door
• Rasida (8/5): - Staf services is very good No bidet for muslim
• Ramesh xman (4/5): Great location, but limited housekeeping, small room size, the experience less satisfactory - The Sunshine Guesthouse is in a perfect location, with everything within walking distance (3–7 minutes), including Myeongdong Street/Night Market, 7-Eleven, GS25, bus station, LRT station, shopping malls, restaurants, and many hotels. They also provide luggage storage facilities, and the check-out time is 11:00 AM. There is a 24-hour coffee machine available, serving Americano coffee. I stayed for a total of 5 nights and 6 days, but housekeeping was only done once during my stay. There was no proper support for basic amenities such as towels, toothpaste, or a toothbrush, so you need to bring your own if staying here. The room size is quite small and not suitable for larger luggage — it is difficult to fit two big suitcases (24”/28”) in the room. Additionally, one of my bags was damaged during the trip, and after I replaced it with a new one, I requested the hotel to help dispose of the old luggage. However, the reception charged KRW 39,000 for disposal, which I found unreasonable, especially considering I stayed for 5 nights and the hotel is not cheap.

• Ma. Suzzete Zyra (9/5): -
• Ana (10/5): I liked the easy access to convinces stores, restaurants and transportation. - Easy access There were noisy guesses.
• Michael (10/5): - Accessibility, cost, convenience
• Charles (7/5): -
• yuko (7/5): 泊まるだけなら十分！ - 地下鉄の駅にもエアポートリムジンバスの乗り場にも近くて便利だった。オンドルで部屋全体は暖まっていたけれど、少し寒かったので、エアコンのリモコンを貸してほしいと伝えると、使えるのは夏だけだそうで、オイルヒーターを用意してくれました。日本語も通じて安心できました。 ほかの部屋の声が聞こえるのが少し気になった。
• Shengshuang (8/5): -
• Krzysztof (7/5): -
• Nga Man (4/5): - 位置非常好及方便 1）有兩晚回來發現地上有小蟑螂…. 2）一張桌子都沒有，椅只有一個，但帶入去浴室了，因為浴室完全沒有位置放衣服…只能把唯一的椅子放到浴室去放衣服了… 3）浴室沒布簾，洗澡會弄到廁所全濕、很麻煩 4）隔音超級差，睡了5晚，經常半夜被吵醒，儘管床很舒服，還是很影響睡眠質素。醒音吵得我幾乎以為隔壁住客就在我身旁。 5）有窗口跟沒的分別不大…. 6）升降機很麻煩….詳細不說了 7）價格來說有點貴但可能對明洞來說是便宜之選。 唯一不挑剔是位置很好，交通很方便。 我不會再來住了。
• Pimmada (9/5): -
• SIEW WUI (7/5): -
• Guillermo (9/5): Awesome location, comfort and value. AWESOME STAFF!!! - Love the staff, the coffee in lobby, the check in process. No night table in room, shower kind os strange, shower head above sink.

• Bilgee (5/5): -
• ANNE REGINE (8/5): - bon emplacement, tout à proximité, personnel sympathique, présence d'un ordinateur de bureau dans le couloir pour les clients, d'un pese bagage, présence d'un ascenseur, tri selectif des dechets pas d'ouverture sur l'extérieur car la fenetre était condamnée, je ne pouvais pas voir le temps dehors, j'étais obligée de sortir de l'hôtel pour prendre un peu l'air
• Tarak (9/5): -
• Tan (9/5): It’s awesome. The staff are very friendly and efficient. I will be back. - The convenience of transport and amenities nearby. One washing machine. Not enough for group usage. No dryer. Limited time usage. Possible solution. If there can be a laundry room fitted with 2 washing machine and 2 dryer will be ideal. Just for consideration.
• Tan (9/5): Superb -
• Inna (10/5): The Best Guesthouse in Seoul — for tourism or work don't look for something else book this place! - If you're coming to Korea, this is the best place to stay — hands down! Located right in the heart of Myeongdong, this guesthouse offers the absolute best location in Seoul. It's in a hotspot area within walking distance to major tourist attractions, and just 2 minutes away from both the metro and bus stations. It’s also the best area for shopping and street food. You can safely return even late at night — the streets are alive with open restaurants, convenience stores, currency exchanges, and essential shops. Everything you need is right there — much more convenient than staying in other parts of the city. The rooms and the guesthouse are super clean, neat, cozy, and very well managed. But what truly makes this place special is the mazing staff and management team, who always greet you with a big smile and are ready to assist. I’ve stayed in many hotels around the world, but nowhere have I felt more welcomed. The staff went above and beyond to assist me with every question and request — I genuinely felt like I was at home. I’ll definitely stay here again. Just don’t make the same mistake I did: I didn’t pay for my full stay upfront while waiting for my visa and had to move out for two nights — they were fully booked. I deeply regretted it because other places didn’t come close to the comfort, cleanliness, and warmth of Sunshine Guesthouse. Another great plus: they have a laundry area, a fully equipped kitchen, and a cozy common area where you can work, relax, or meet fellow travelers, and repeated guests. As a solo traveler, I met amazing people here and made lifelong friends. This guesthouse didn’t just meet my expectations — it exceeded them and made my Seoul experience unforgettable. Thank you to the entire team for your hospitality, hard work, and the care you put into every guest’s experience. You made my trip truly special. Till next time!
• Phinyada (8/5): Superb location - Very good location. Next to shopping street. Very near train station and airport bus stop
• Lis (8/5): It serves exactly what I need, a place to sleep and rest after a day outside. - The staffs are quite attentive when I told them about the toilet bowl flushing problem. Nothing
• Jpark (8/5): Good and affordable - Good for a short stay, convenient location The bed isn't very comfy.
• Susan (5/5): Passable - The property is in the middle of the Myeongdong area and convenient to the metro. There is a night market that operates every night at a reduced strength, but really comes out on weekends. This is a low budget place.
• Bego (8/5): Just ok - Location is great I left my jewelry and some creams/makeup in the vanity and they don’t give to me back. I lost valuable stuff and they denied to have it. To sad history for the most safe country 😞😞😞😢😢😢
• Kelvin (10/5): close to shops, eats and attractions - Right at the main myeongdong shopping street. Staff were so lovely and helpful. I lost an item and the staff found it and made sure it was given back to me!! For the location, service and price, everything was really good.
• Jeanie (8/5): Great guesthouse at myeong dong - the guesthouse is close to the myeongdong shopping street. The airport limousine stop is just 5mins walk away. The bathroom gives out a sewage smell, but the owner put an automatic airfreshener in the bathroom to get rid of the smell.
• Marivic (4/5): Disappointing - The location is very convenient in the heart of Myeong dong walking distance to everywhere.Easy access for public transfort and food. Staff was helpful .Laugage storage okey. We book 4nights for 2single bed but they gave us bunk bed that is not my booking we come very late pass midnight i inform them but our room was really not accecptable for the price of KRW539,212 for SGD was $497.27 small room no space for our 2medium and 1small laugage we cannot walk oredi to our room if we open our laugage then no table cannot put anything i put my things in my bed very funny have one stand with 2layer hard thing but they have note that if make dirty u have to pay to them so i ask my son don't use coz it might be get dirty. Toilet small no bidet the heater sometimes hot then suddenly cold we stay 4nights no clean at all our room and we must throw away our own rubbish by our self and put the small use towel then u get ur self the fresh towel to outside near the counter .The one stool in our room was broken also i give back to them and then they fix but still not really good my son on the top of the bunk bed was sitting in the floor.But when i saw the next door of my room they 2single bed and some room i saw when the customer was leaving they have long table why they give us this 4nights room is not worth what i pay now i learn i must be careful upon booking anyway .I will come back to Korea but i'm not book this anymore . march 20 to march 24 ,2025 stay here 4nights
• Pearl (5/5): Satisfactory for an overnight stay, not for a longer stay. - The location was great - Myeongdong night market & shopping streets were just out the door. Just a block away from the airport bus stop. Very convenient. My windowless double bed room was tiny. It had barely enough room on the floor for a small suitcase. The photos on booking.com did not show the toilet & sink were part of the shower enclosure, so everything got wet.
• Jovy (10/5): Value for Money Accomodation in the Heart of Myeongdong - This is our second time staying here. First was last November with only two of us and now we got 2 rooms— 1 for our own family with a Toddler and the other one for out senior parents. The property was very clean, at the center of restaurants, coffee shops and convenience stores, train station and airport bus drop off was super nearby too. The check in and check out was seamless & everything we needed were all here. Free hot and cold water, some other freebie food on the table and the utensils are easily available for everyone. This is definitely value for money. The staff were also so nice. They helled with our requests and made sure our rooms are ready and equipped with adaptors upon arrival at midnight. It’s the cheapest place in the area too! Definitely worth it. This will surely be our designated home accomodation everytime we’re seoul. None
• Scott (7/5): Good -
• Ma (8/5): Good location, room too small - location room
• Katherine (4/5): Budget - Very noisy all throughout the night, could hear people in the hallway and slamming their doors, sounded like it could nearly be happening in my room. Bugs in the room. Towels for the shower were the size of hand towels. The outlet in the room didn't work.
• James (7/5): Safe and ok - Very nice location Small rooms
• Mototsugu (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nur (8/5): will repeat hereee - i love the strategic location. near to public transport and myeondong shopping street. it will be excellent if you provide a wide towel.the provided towel only for face uses
• Poon (9/5): Simple stay - For the location, right in the heart of myeondong, such a steal. A simple in and out accommodation. Sound proofing isn't the best but most guests are considerate.
• Michael (8/5): Very good - Centrally located with easy access to buses and subways
• Jenny (10/5): Wonderful experience - It’s in the heart of the ‘shopping’ paradise and food. The staffs are very helpful and this s my 2nd stays with the guesthouse. It’s extremely safe for solo traveller .
• Poh (8/5): Had a great time and value for money - The location is very convenient, near subway and shopping street and food street. There was no separate shower room from the lavatory
• Georgette (8/5): I would definitely book here again bec of the proximity to the airport bus limo and shopping area - Very near Myeongdong shopping area and the airport limo bus stop. Homey feeling because of the common area where you can eat heat your food chat with other guests Walls are kinda thin that you can hear the commotion in the correidors or the adjacent room but was not uncomfortable when sleeping time
• Zuranaz (9/5): Superb - Location wise very near with subway station and airport bus checkpoint. Environment very convenient and very comfortable . Price is affordable and staff very helpful
• Radthayaon (8/5): Very good -
• Blen (9/5): all in all the place was still a nice place to stay! - 1. I love the place its just a 2minute walk from the limousine bus stop 💯 2. the persons working in the reception area are so nice 1. its just so happen the room that was given has its bad smell even if they have a spray given. 2. would be nice if they let us use of the common area 24hrs because like us we usually have a tour package so we do need to wake up early and it would give a big help if we could have a small meal/coffee before we go. 3. the plug is not universal ( they should have it upgraded)
• Julia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mary (9/5): It was a home away from home - The location, the staff and the rate. It has a homey feel. None
• Mary (9/5): Refer to other survey response - Same comment as the previous one. None
• Julia (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location, helpful staff
• Aik (8/5): Very good - Very friendly and helpful staff Room is small but the trade off is a very convenient spot .
• Gabriella (2/5): UNCOMFORTABLE WITH TINY ROOMS. - Internet Access was available per Room Number....although the Internet Service did freeze up once, overall it functioned well. This Establishment is not a "Guesthouse" but rather a "Hostel"type of living environment. The rooms we paid for were super-tiny, a standard triple and 2 small beds. I stayed in the room with 2 small beds as it was just myself BUT even then I felt like I was in a prison cell because of the size and the 2 beds took up the little remaining space. I laid my Checked Luggage at the inside entrance to the room on the floor and could barely get to the bed as there was no walking space. PLEASE HAVE THE ESTABLISHMENT READ THE FULL PAGE OF RULES TO YOU BEFORE BOOKING YOUR RESERVATION BECAUSE THEY WILL CHARGE FOR LOST KEY (CARD), DIRTY SHEETS (THEIR SHEETS ARE WHITE), YOU HAVE TO EMPTY YOUR OWN TRASH AND THEIR LITTLE TRASH RECEPTACLES IN THE BEDROOM AND BATHROOM ARE VERY SMALL. IF YOU ARE A FOREIGNER AND ESPECIALLY USED TO UNITED STATES CUSTOMER HOSPITALITY, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU. UPON CHECK-OUT I LEFT A FEW PAPER NAPKINS (ONE A MAKE-UP REMOVER TOWELETTE) ON THE SECOND BED WITH A FORK AND KNIFE...THEY HAD OFFERED TO BOOK A TAXI FOR US AND WE WERE WONDERING WHY THE GIRL WAS STALLING THEN SHE CAME DOWN THE HALL SAYING,"CONTAMINATION, CONTAMINATION" SHE MOTIONED TO ME AND I FOLLOWED HER TO MY ROOM. APPARENTLY HOUSEKEEPING HAD REPORTED TO HER THAT I HAD LEFT A LOT OF TRASH ON THE BED WHEN WE ASKED HER TWICE TO SHOW US THE TRASH THEY FINALLY SHOWED US THE 2 NAPKINS AND PAPER TOWELETTE. THEY STATED THAT THE SHEET WAS STAINED AND HAD US PAY 20,000 KOREA WON...IF WE DIDN'T PAY THAT I DON'T THINK THAT WE WOULD HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO LEAVE TO CATCH OUR FLIGHT TO THE AIRPORT. THEY MADE A PRETTY BIG DEAL OF THE SITUATION PLUS THE TAXI THEY BOOKED FOR US WAS AN EXTRA $10. BUCKS THAN USUALLY CHARGED, A KOREAN FRIEND WHO WAS HELPING US INFORMED US OF THIS. BE MINDFUL AND ASK A LOT OF QUESTIONS SO YOU WON'T EXPERIENCE UNEXPECTED UNPLEASANT SURPRISES!
• Julia (10/5): I loved my stay, I will return next time - Excellent location. Good value and friendly staff. Adorable cat cafe downstairs!
• Jasmine (7/5): Good -
• Kirti (9/5): Superb - The guest house is located on a very prime location in the heart of the Myeongdong market. Everything is easily available the moment you step off the place. The best part is it's hardly 2-3 minutes walk to bus stop and metro station. Even airport limousine stops in front of the guest house. Daiso is just a few steps away. It's a clean and well maintained place.
• Laura (5/5): Great location but you get what you pay for - The location of this hotel is what makes it so good. The facilities and accommodation are what you would expect for this price range and calibre of hotel. The reviews regarding thin walls were correct. It was like everyone was in the room with me.
• Renny (10/5): Myeongdong Convenient Guesthouse - The staff was super friendly and very detailed in sharing the information you need to know. I had my own room for some privacy and it was very clean. The size of the room was relatively small but I spent most of the time outside so it didn't bother me. Location is super close to Myeongdong station and the shopping area. The entrance was a bit hard to find, but once you get to the left side of the building and find the elevator, you're good 👍 And the wall is kinda thin so you just have to tire out yourself before going back for some rest.
• Hanilyn (10/5): Exceptional - Awesome location. None
• Galina (8/5): Everything great except sleep - Location is perfect just in the heart of the city. The place is clean has coffee, clean towels, etc. At night the tubes in bathroom ocasionally made a loud noise, so I could not sleep properly. The pillow was also to fluffu and not comfy to sleep at. Other than that, everything was great!
• Terese (9/5): Cheap and clean - I needed to fill a few days and wanted a cheap place. This did the trick. For the price it’s really good
• Danni (2/5): 1 star hostel is a more appropriate rating - If you value location above sleep or cleanliness, you will like this place If you value sleep at all, you will not like this place. In a week, i only slept 1 full night. The other nights were a mixture of crying babies, people in the next room just having a chat (they weren't even speaking loudly), a child across the hall jumping on his bed, a child running around the hallways after midnight, a social gathering in a room down the hall till 2am, and the list goes on. You could've been in 1 big room, that'how it felt. There's absolutely no soundproofing. No housekeeping in the entire week I stayed there. My bedding and clothing were covered in dust after the 2nd day from the A/C. You need to replace your towels with clean ones at reception. They are the size of a tea towel. TV never had a network connection and wouldn't work as advertised. Wifi was flakey. Breakfast was advertised to be supplied, but was not. The room was so dirty, I accidentally dropped my earphones on the ground under the bed. That was a scary sight when i retrieved them. Honestly, I have been to much better backpackers for much cheaper.
• Ann (9/5): Great location. Not so good noise insulation - The location was unbeatable. It was in the heart of Myeongdong and very close to the bus and subway stations. The back entrance was quite easy to find. There was no noise insulation as I could hear my neighbor talking at night time and early morning
• Fenella (7/5): Good -
• Sarah (6/5): Pleasant - The staff was VERY friendly. Location amazing! Sadly it was very run down :( walls were thin and the room was small.
• Tsz (9/5): Will stay again! -
• Donyatorn (8/5): Very good -
• Charlotte (6/5): Pleasant - The staff was excellent, really friendly, courteous and spoke English perfectly. They were very apologetic about the noise in the kitchen, which they of course couldn't help. Location was good for quick access to airport bus, train, metro and tours. We had a few issues, but the main thing was the the bathroom and subsequently the room smelled really badly of sewer, despite a big air freshener. This alone would make me advise against staying here. The walls are very thin and no one respects the rules about not using the kitchen before 9am, so all three mornings we were awakened between 5 and 7 by noisy guests making noodles. Also very noisy guests talking loudly late into the night. The place is plastered by signs about all the things you can't do and the fines you risk getting. We had 5-6 in the room alone and the kitchen was just full of them as well. And they were pretty aggressive in tone. It just felt very unwelcoming. Curtain did not keep any of the light out. Light sleepers will not enjoy it here. There are better places to stay in that price range for sure.
• Debby (4/5): Disappointing - Unstable wifi and TV. Asking staff’s help to maintain, he seems not willing to(the attitude) but thanks him I got wifi at that time. After the maintenance, cannot use again and again, even I try to unplug and reconnect the cable. Besides, can hear next door customers’ voice, not easy to have a good sleep quality.
