Soo Stay-4bed&Double Room, Hongdae, Sinchon 10min

Great location - with a little bit of walking its possible to reach quite a lot of interesting places from there. Area feels quite local and is fairly quiet most of the time. Good communication with host - quick responses and clear instructions. Had no problems finding apartment and checking in. For example, had some problems with internet at the beginning and those were resolved remotely in just a few minutes.

One thing to note - there is no view from the windows. House is very close to the neighboring ones and windows has some plastic glued on them to provide more privacy.

The accommodation was comfortable quite near to the train, very close to restaurants. It was a bit tricky to find but not too hard as we were sent a map, although a couple of locals didn’t know where it was nor our taxi driver. Once found all ran smoothly. Beds were comfortable although pillows were too firm for us.

We only had 3 towels for 4 people, although they did drop an additional towel off the second day once we realised. Two pillows had stains on them, one looked like foot prints, but these were also changed once pointed out. The apartment could be cleaner, stains on the pillows and carpets, window culls were very grubby and marks on some of the kitchen and bathroom shoe draw quite grubby.. But cleaning products are on site to clean if you need to. You need eye covers if you are light sensitive as the windows let all the light in and the room light glows all night. Unfortunately there is a construction site next to it and work starts just after 7 am, luckily we were up most days early so didn’t effect but did disturb us on the days we wanted to rest beyond 7am. Also don’t like that we are asked to give a 10 star review in return for a coffee voucher! Completely understand how important good reviews are but they also need to deserve them, otherwise the whole booking review system doesn’t work!

房子干净整洁，设施齐全。屋主热情友好，回答问题非常及时，并因为我们使用的电器制式不同，提前给我们准备了手机充电器和转换插头，非常贴心。住宿周围有许多餐厅、超市，生活方便。下次来首尔还会住这里。

Perfectly clean, excellent location and the staff always responded extremely quickly and helpfully.
