The owner Min speaks English and was super helpful. The location of the accommodation is fantastic because the subway is near and other great areas can be reached by foot . The kitchen had everything we needed. We could do our laundry there, get filtered water in the kitchen and use the microwave just for example.

It takes more than an hour to get to all the main points. Near the guesthouse are many establishments and cafes, as well as a GS25 store. Thank you, I really liked everything.

Located within 700 metres of Hongik University Station and 1.2 km of Hongik University, Hao Guesthouse in Hongdae provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Seoul. This recently renovated guest house is located 2.4 km from Ewha Womans University and 4.5 km from Seoul Station. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, full-day security and luggage storage for guests.

-Pretty close to the airport railroad station (Hongdae stn exit#6) So, it's very convenient travelling to/from ICN airport with big luggage. Even though the guesthouse's not in the shopping area of Hongdae, it's still good and easy walking distance to all the shops and cafes that I've bookmarked. -The room's very CLEAN. Couldn't see any traces of dust which normally I'm very sensitive to. -The staff (Mr.Beomseok) was so kind and understanding. I've requested for early check-in as I felt unwell from long haul flight. He texted me immediately after the cleaning was done. -As a light sleeper, I didn't have any problems at all during the night using earplugs. During the day, I could hear the auto front door, since my bedroom was right at the stair facing the front door. Yet, not that bothering me. -Common area/breakfast = no comments as I didn't have a chance to use it. Considering the price, definitely worth it! I'd come back again for sure!

Awesome location. Super clean and comfortable. My friend accidentally left her purse with passport on the arex express train and the girl at the front desk went above and beyond to help us call the lost and found and get it back. She was awesome! Overall a great stay.

    This accommodation has a great location - it's both quiet and central. It's not too far from the subway station, and there are plenty of options for eating out and grabbing coffee nearby. The rooms are clean, well-equipped, and really comfortable. The hosts are super friendly, and the variety of Korean-style breakfast is absolutely delicious!

    Great Guesthouse with great host! Extremely friendly and helpful. You get detailed instructions how to find the guest house and (if you arrive after 5 pm) how to do the self check-in. Everything went super smoothly. Can definitely recommend staying there!

    Great location, clean spacious rooms, simple design, quiet nice neighborhood. The manager is very very nice and polite, they kept my luggage while I was away for couple of days. I went back to same guesthouse afterwards. Definitely recommended, very helpful, very close to airport shuttle bus. Close to one of the main palaces, and Hanoek village.

    Momo is a very kind host. She was very helpful, and we managed to communicate well even with our language barrier. The guest house is incredibly central, only a 5min walk to Myeong-Dong station. The central location made it easy to get around, and even with the window open at night, it was surprisingly quiet. I would definitely stay with at Soo Guest House again.

    I normally don’t really write reviews but this was such a comfortable stay! David is an incredible host and helped us with an appointment at the doctor when my friend had issues with hearing. The guesthouse is on walking distance from a lot of places and if you dislike walking a lot, the metro is right outside the door as well. Many breakfast options, many dinner options and a good quality stay, and not to mention quite cheap for all the facilities and surroundings!

    enjoyed my stay at YAB guesthouse! chris and simon are great hosts - they were quick to respond to messages and help with requests. the guesthouse itself is in a great location in hongdae - near the main strip (but never got too loud at night!) and a 3 min walk from the subway. rooms are slightly smaller than expected but the beds are comfy and you still have enough space to move around. there’s a common area too which was nice! the guesthouse felt busy but there were never major queues to use the bathroom/kitchen area.
