I thought it was quite adequate. If, like me, you're just looking for a place to sleep, I'd say it's a perfect value for money. Communication was very fast, and I think you could go out at night and take a walk, so it was a very comfortable stay for me. Thank you to the host.

Once we found the entrance, hidden down a side alley, we were pleasantly surprised. About 1 min walk from exit 4 of jongno 5 ga, the location was excellent. The room was small but very functional and clean. The staff were unobtrusive and communal areas welcoming and we'll kept. I would stay again!

I stayed in Room 206, and overall, I would describe my experience as decent but I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone sensitive to noise or odors. The building is located down a narrow, somewhat dirty alley where people often gather to smoke, especially at night. There’s also a karaoke below the property, which can make certain nights quite noisy. The building is not soundproof, so if you have loud neighbors, earplugs are a must. Unfortunately, during our stay, the room across from us was occupied by a particularly noisy group who talked loudly on speakerphone and moved in and out of the room until around 3am. Our room also had a persistent sewer-like odor, though running the ventilation helped minimize it. The room itself was smaller than it appeared in the photos but included a hairdryer, mini fridge and TV. The bathroom was spacious enough to shower without wetting everywhere. One issue was the air conditioning unit.. it was dusty, so I had to choose between opening the window (and dealing with cigarette smoke from outside) or using the AC and circulating dust. While I understand the property is budget-friendly, I do wish it were cleaner and better maintained. A "No Smoking" sign outside the entrance could also help reduce secondhand smoke exposure for guests.
