Aroha Guest House

If you are there just to sleep than its perfect, some tenants are really noisy and the walls are too thin, the subway station was really close so that was nice. Overall decent place to stay for the price

A no-frills property, in a great location, that is well run by friendly and accommodating staff. Shared areas are being cleaned regularly and I had no problem spending a few nights there in a solo room and would consider it again for a budget stay.

Very clean property.

Good

Stayed 5 nights. Owner communicates well when you have a question. My room was tiny. There was a table, chair, lamp and a single bed. There was a rack to hang clothes by the foot of the bed, and whats left of the floor space was just enough to open a small-medium suitcase. Location is a 2-3 minute walk to Seoul subway station (Line 4) and 2 stations away and you’re in Myeondong. Maybe 3-4 minutes when going back to the house as its slightly up a slope. 7-eleven is a few steps away. Cleanliness is okay. Steep and low-ceiling steps to go up and down to the kitchen and common room (located in basement). Breakfast was brewed coffee, juice, teas, toasted bread butter and jam. Water dispenser on all floors. Fresh towels available everyday. Overall for the price i paid , its okay- just remember its a guesthouse not a hotel. But verything you need is there. I’m happy with it.

The host was the friendliest and most helpful person I have ever known. He responded quickly to messages, he was always available. He is the best! The room was quite nice, I had enough space in it. The guesthouse is really close to Seoul Station so it is easy to get anywhere.

The owner was very unprofessional

Super nice staff

solo traveller visiting Korea during covid for skiing. hostel format, with access to fridge, hot water, coffee machine. loved this place. shared bathroom, with private bed and desk. owner is super friendly via whatsapp. perfect for those who want a good place to sleep, not for those who are fussy and need luxury.

Seamless and comfortable stay! Convenient location for bus or subway and airport express link. Bag storage safe and seamless. Breakfast superb! (Egg,Milk,juice,bread,spreads).real coffee machine an absolute bonus!!!! Laundry free too. WiFi fast and constant. Will definitely be back!

They contacted me with detailed check in instructions as well as detailed directions from the train to their location. The directions were so incredibly helpful. The bed was hard as a rock but it was heated, so that was nice!

We only stayed a night, but it was pleasant, clean, and sufficient for our needs. We reached almost close to midnight, and though the reception was closed by then, the staff left clear instructions for check in and out. Free simple breakfast was provided, but we didn't partake of it as we wanted something more substantial. Overall happy with our stay. Would recommend to those comfortable with a basic accommodation.

The Aroha Guest is a small but convenient Hostel. It is located quite near the Seoul Railway Station and offers good connectivity to most places around. While it's in a small lane, but the inside Hostel condition is quite good. Staff is young and helpful (though they appear a bit dry but they do provide whatever assistance you ask for). For its price, it's a suitable hostel.

Very cozy, clean and offered lots of options of breakfast.

Not bad for the price Nice and comfy Environment quiet Many local food around

Friendly. Good location. No personal locker. Simple breakfast, with fresh eggs.

Convenient to Seoul station. Small rooms but comfortable. Clean common bathrooms, with plenty of them (two per floor). Don't have personal lockers.

Comfortable, clean, friendly, centrally located, very inexpensive. If you don't mind the situation of shared facilities, it is an excellent choice. It is Spartan with no amenities of a Marriott but everything you need for a comfortable stay. Being former military, there were no surprises. I would have no problem returning for my next trip to Korea.

You have to walk the train underpass to get there, walk about 2 blocks , sign is small against a light post , turn into a yard at the back on the right side ,it is a great location to get around from the Seoul Station , it clean, u have to take your shoes off and used the slippers they have . No shower after 12midnight , u get a door code to enter if you out late at night , they have a place to keep your luggage after check out , my daughter and I stayed 2 nights

Everything was good, is near to subway but you have to walk uphill to reach the guesthouse.
