This was a perfect place to stay for me and my friend. It is the best stop to be as you are close to train stations and attractions by taxi. The staff are very friendly and inviting. The rooms are extremely clean, warm, homely and cosy. I would definitely stay here again whenever I go to Seoul.

Staff were friendly. Great location beside the subway station. Very easy to get to major tourist attractions from the hotel. I would stay again but FYI, the rooms are very small, basic and thin walls.

CP值高乾淨簡單的住宿

住在二樓雙床房有對外窗，房間雖然沒有很大但很乾淨，老闆人也很好，會幫忙搬行李上下樓，廚房有微波爐可以加熱食物，退房當天晚上9點前可以寄放行李，離東大門歷史公園站7號出口非常近，7號出口正對面就是7-11，cp值高，有機會再去首爾時會再去住！

口コミ通り！親切で快適です。

口コミが良かったのでここに決めましたが結果とても良かったです！ チェックインの時からチェックアウトの時まで快適に過ごせました。場所もバス停があちこちにあるのでどの方面にも割と出やすいです。 ゴミも外に出していれば捨ててくれます。 シャワーの水圧もカーテンも申し分なし、真冬の滞在でしたが部屋もあたたかかったです。 タオルもフロントで自分で取れるのが嬉しいです。使い終わったタオルは廊下に入れる場所があります。 フロントのおじさまも、寒くないですか？など気にかけてくださり、毎回会うたびに挨拶してくれます。韓国語で会話していましたがとても優しい方です。 チェックアウトの時に外で雪かきをされていたので、私は自分で荷物を2階からおろしたのですが、呼んでくださればいいのに...！！と気にしてくださってました。タクシーを呼んだことを伝えると荷物も載せてくださりお気をつけて！と見送ってもらって最後まで気分良く過ごせました。 また泊まりに行きますね。 사장님 친절하게 대해주셔서 감사했습니다!! 항상 건강하시고 새해 복 많이 받으세요. 또 이용하게습니다.

空港リムジンバスを使うと近くて便利です。 地下鉄は5号線でも階段が多く乗り口まではまあまあ距離があります。ゲストハウスは清潔でタオルがキレイだしコスパ的には大満足です。 あと、ご主人が変わらずいらっしゃるので ホーム的な安心感があります。

YURIE, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

東大門歴史文化公園駅5号線7番出口を右に出て、左に曲り真っ直ぐ進み、すぐにありました。ソウルからは4号線で東大門歴史文化公園駅に、向かったので5号線7番出口まで結構歩きました。 東大門の市街は徒歩で行けるし、明洞なども電車でのアクセスはとても良かったです。 ティッシュが部屋に置いていないのと、シャワーは扉とカーテンを閉めても床に水が漏れてしまうので毎回シャワー後はタオルで部屋の床を拭きました。 寝るためだけのお部屋には最適だと思います。 ドライヤーは部屋に置いてありましたが、歯ブラシ、などのアメニティーはないので持参が必要です。 コンビニも近くにあるのでとても良い場所でした。 また、スーツケースの重さを測るための体重計も入り口付近に置いてあり、借りました。 管理人さんも優しくてこのホテルを選んで良かったです！

オーナーが親切で部屋も清潔。安心して泊まれます。

もう何度も利用させていただいています。安定の安心感と清潔さ。オーナーのお気遣いにいつも感謝です。立地もよいです。泊まり慣れているのもありますが、色々歩き回って疲れて帰ってきた時の「我が家」感に癒されます。ソウルでの宿泊はHwashin hostel以外は考えられません。

受付の方がいつも笑顔で挨拶してくれます。 エレベーターは有りませんがスーツケースは運んでくださいます。 部屋・ベッドは狭いですが、とても清潔です。 シャワーも温かいお湯がすぐ出るし、水圧もバッチリでした。 また是非利用したい宿です！
