場所、オーナーの人柄も、値段もgood❗️

新村駅五番出口よりすぐです。荷物がある時は六番の方が良いですが…。予約するとオーナーの方から丁寧なメールがあったり、滞在中も心配してくれたりとても親切にしていただきました。値段も安かったし、近くにはこんびにから食べるところやショッピングに良さそうなところもあり、快適でした。

女性専用の宿泊施設です。韓国に女性一人で旅行されるのならこのゲストハウスは最良の選択です。セキュリティもしっかりしているし地下鉄の新村駅からも近いし、何よりもオーナーがフレンドリーシップにあふれる素晴らしい女性です。英語のできる方なので、きっとあなたの韓国旅行をサポートしてくれます。もちろんゲストハウスですから通常のホテルの設備とは比べられません。しかし簡素ながら清潔感あふれる室内です。もしバスタブが必要ならお風呂屋さんを教えてもらえますよ。

很適合一個女生旅行的住宿點

第一次入住，這裡非常舒適。姨母很熱情，也很體貼。離機場巴士站很近，不論是去程或是回程都非常方便的，而且機場巴士費用1萬，很值得啊，完全交通便利，如果是搭早班飛機也沒有問題。離新村站（地鐵）也很近。因為自己本身經常往返台北首爾，能入主到舒適的環境，覺得很開心。以後有機會一個人旅行的話，我還會再次入住的。

立地、スタッフの対応は良かったです。

総合的に見ると良いです。 スタッフ、立地とても良いです。古いながらも清潔に使えるように清掃されてます。 3月下旬から4月をまたいでの利用でしたので、オンドルが入ってた時には少し暑かったです。窓がないので入り口のドアを開けることで対応しました。 しかし韓屋ですので、トイレとシャワーに行く際には、一旦外に出て中庭を横切らなければなりません。雨の日や寒い時期にはその点を考慮に入れた方が良いと思います。

Thank you Ms. Lee!

Me and my sister had an amazing stay here during our first few days in Seoul! Ms. Lee and her daughter were such amazing hosts. They went above and beyond the call of duty and treated us more like family than guests. It was honestly heartbreaking when we had to leave. They were just that awesome! The guesthouse is ideally located. Close to the main road but tucked away in a quiet street. It is only a two minute walk from Sinchon station with lots of restaurants and shopping. The guesthouse itself is a traditional Hanok home with all your necessary amenities. We stayed at seperate room and it was enough space for the two of us. Since it’s a traditional home the place doesn’t have central heating for the winter but the room is well equipped with floor heating and bed warmers so you won’t get cold. Also, the bathrooms are outside so you will have to brave the cold when you need to take a shower. But, it wasn’t really an issue as the bathrooms are heated and the steam will warm up the space in no time. Lastly, the walls are paper thin but hey, if your in Korea you’ll mostly be exploring anyways and it’s all part of the experience of living in a traditional home. And more than anything, the hospitality was just perfect! Ms. Lee with her daughter helped us out so much, since it was our first time in Korea. They even checked up on us even after we checked out and exploring other parts of Korea. I highly recommend especially for newbie travelers
