Budget hostel.
Roman the manager was welcoming and helpful.
The room is very small but for sleeping at the end of the day it's sufficient.
Walls are very thin. On our last night, a family arrived and the noise from their room was none stop and unbearable. We could not sleep for a minute.

First timer in Korea and also first solo travel. Couldn’t have picked a better accommodation than K-Guesthouse! It’s clean, near bus and train stations and right at the center of the famous Myeongdong street/ shopping district. So many stores and food stalls around. Roman, the manager is also very helpful and hospitable. Highly recommend staying here!

Perfect location and decent rooms
Perfect location. Seconds away from the action and neighbourhood felt safe. Rooms were small but the customer service from the Manager (Roman), made the stay worthwhile. He was friendly and went above and beyond to help with luggage requests.

We stayed here for 3 nights and it was great. The room is small however not an issue if you will be out most of the day and just need somewhere to sleep and shower. Basic amenities, communal kitchen area and water cooler which was handy for filling our water bottles. Now the location is fantastic! Literally a couple steps away from the heart of myeongdong which was super convenient for us as we would just go back to the room to drop off shopping before heading out again. Didn’t find it noisy at all. Would recommend if you aren’t a fussy traveller wanting a room with all the bells and whistles :)

Notwithstanding that the hotel was very close to Myeongdong Street and the train station, the facilities were relatively basic although the design looked minimalistic. The mattress was very hard and there was no proper ventilation in the room, save for the tiny ventilation in the washroom. There was also a smell in the room and there was absolutely no space for the luggage. The only good thing about the property was that the staff was very friendly.

Convenient location, near the train and bus and myangdong area where all the shops and food are. It's perfect for solo travelers.
Didn't like the fact I have to carry big luggage down and up. noise can be heard next door easily but that wasn't too bad in my case. Instead of providing four small towels, they could have provide two big ones.

Thank god it was just one night stay
You will get what you paid for. The building itself smelled and they tried covering up with tons of room sprays. The room is pretty small with super thin walls. There were small nats coming up thru the drain, which smelled aweful. Shower I didnt even dare trying taking it. Close to everything but no elevators. I say spend extra 30 dollars and go somewhere decent. If you had to go to a guesthouse, U would say Sunshine guesthouse is in the better condition.

The room I got was a double-decker bed, but supposed to be a twin bed room (which I saw from the photos uploaded). The room was clean but I think the beddings need to be replaced.
Staff was friendly and accommodating.

Guesthouse is near subway and shopping street. It’s very convenient. By the way, there is no elevator but staff is willing to help without asking. And there is towel prepared for you but it’s small towel. You should bring your big towel if you needed.

Myeong-dong
The check in/out was a breeze and the location is amazing since it is close to the train station and the Myeong-Dong street food area. It is also within the shopping district. The bed is not comfy though but it was really cheap so you get what you paid for.

Perfect Location to Myeongdong Shopping
I got into Seoul after 10p so decided to take a cab since the last bus would be gone by the time I got my bag/customs etc. I asked the information booth to translate the address in Korean for my cab driver. He was able to enter it into his GPS system. After hours check-in was simple. My key was on the counter and I just helped myself to the room. Location was in a prime spot, near all the shopping streets but also not in the middle of it all. Was also conveniently located near Namsan Tower. I took a cab up [$3USD] and walked back down. Starbucks and convenient store on each side of the hotel. The street it's on is also great for hailing a cab. Room itself was comfortable for 1 person. Only 2 things I'd recommend are mattress toppers and standard towels. Not only could I feel the springs, I could see them. Luckily I had a twin room so I used the extra comforter as a topper. And the only towels provided were 6 hand towels. Overall - my stay was nice. Owner Eunsuk is friendly and accommodating.
