Bang for the buck”
I stayed here for 2 weeks and met new friends from Malaysia, Japan, and Indonesia. Close to subway station, convenience store, walking distance to Myeong Dong and DDP. It's quiet, clean and comfortable. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to South Korea.

Fantastic”
If you’re a solo traveler like me, I would recommend this awesome guesthouse for you. It’s very cheap and even it’s not very spacious but I don’t mind at all. The location is very near to a subway but if you’re a first timer here it will be a little confusing because it is located in a small alley behind the subway exit 1 at euljiro 3. This guesthouse is very clean and everything is provided here which includes shampoo, shower cream, facial cleanser . I just need to bring my toothbrush 😂😂 The facility such as hairdryer, computer, kitchen, refrigerator and so on is provided as well . But most importantly is the hot shower hahah as korea is quite cold . The internet is fast . I don’t get to know miss jo that much as we met once and just talk through the phone upon my arrival . But miss jo’s assistant mr.Dongki is very nice and it’s a pleasure knowing him . Very nice person and easy to talk with . But most valuable experience is that i made a lots of friends.

Thank you for your comment. It's good to hear that you slept well at my guesthouse. I want my guesthouse more cozy and comfortable place. I'll have to pay more attention to the cleaning works. Hope to see you again someday. Thanks.
Good experience”
I had a good experience living at Seoul Mom Guest House for a week. I chose the four-person female room. There is a portable room heater, floor heater, water heater, and bathroom heater. There are also universal adapters, as well as shampoo, conditioner, and tissues in the bathroom. However, my only concern was the towel and the heater in the bathroom. You should bring your own towel because those provided in the guest house are super small, they are only used for the face, while the heating in the bathroom (not the water heater), I think, doesn't work, so it really freezes especially when you take a bath. Overall, it was a good experience. It was super quiet there that you can sleep soundly. Good value for money, also, especially if you book it with Agoda.

Thank you so much for your detailed explanation about the equipment and facilities of my guesthouse. I feel sorry for the big towel issue because I don't have bath towel for guests. Instead, you can use additional towel from the towel box placed in the living room. Sometimes, guest may feel chilly at a bathroom because of the cold air coming through the window gap. Actually, that's not a boiler system malfunction because if that's the case we cannot use the hot water. In that case, you'd better turn on the hot water for some time to warm up the bathroom. Anyway, I feel sorry about what you felt uncomfortable during your stay here. Things will be getting better. Hope your understanding. Thanks.
Customer service includes a little amicable approach”
I must admit that I was not sure if about getting this place due to the many negative reviews. However, I did. For most part the reviews were irrelevant to the reality of the hostel. Maybe it was at one point. My experience is that the hostel is clean, quiet and within few minutes walk to the subway station. Clean towels are provided everyday; rooms are cleaned everyday; hot water is available 24 hours a day. The hostel has terrace and kitchen for residents to cook their own food.. Of course the rooms are too small for six people. Considering the price I paid, I should not have the right to complain about the room being small. However, the one issue I see that can be improved is the way the manager carries herself when communicating with client residences. I am not sure if it is a language barrier thing or that of personality of cultural; she come across as a a rude person to the point that I thought she had not manners. The word humility and her don't go together.

Convenient and safe”
I stayed for five days here, and I really love it here. The space is just okay for me since I'm a budget traveler. The place is very near in Euljiro 3ga exit 6 so I can go home late at night. Co guesthouse mates are approachable and friendly too! Miss Jo welcomed me when I arrived but too sad she wasn't there when I checked out. Also thanks to the volunteer staff DongKi for helping me carry my luggages from the place to the subway~~~

3rd visit to Seoul”
i would to thank Miss Jo for letting my luggage stay in her guesthouse for 4 days when i went to Jeju Island, i was a little worried that she might threw my bag outside because she says no when i send her a message on Line (red her reply when i was already in the island, so it was late). been here for 6 night (3+3). nothing to expect from the guesthouse, its literally a house that was converted into a business lodging facility. small room with own toilet which is nice even when you are in 6 person dorm, well atleast you just share it with your mates. a small stove for your cooking and small table to eat. location was so perfect, especially to me. Jongno has been my favorite area in Seoul so i can just walk around on every places, its very near to the subway and bus stations. near to Gwanjang Market and Jongmyo Shrine. Its so close to everywhere. Will definitely introduce this place to my not so picky friends, instead of staying in Hongdae which is too far from places.

Very convenient for traffic by Metro”
It take only 2 - 3 minutes walking from Exit gate of Metro to this guesthouse, very convenient while the price is very low. There are 2 Metro lines in this station and its is convenient for your going by metro.

Cheap hostel”
This hostel is nesrly the cheapest in Seoul and you can get anything that you want. The owner is so polite and she taught me how to get to the hostel beforehand, which is very easy. However the door has no lock which will not be so secure in my opinion.
See room deals
Thank you for your caring comment. Actually, there are no separate keys for 6 people room. Instead, you can put your valuables into the locker with separate key in the room. Anyway, thank you for your advice and I'll try to find a better way. Hope to see you again someday. Thanks.
Great place to stay”
i stayed in this cozy guesthouse for 4 nights. The owner is kind, always available to help you

Thank you for your review. I was glad to meet you. I am always trying my best to let my guests relax. I look forward to seeing you again on your next trip to Seoul.
Very close to the Metro Station”
It take about 150 m (2 - 3 minutes) from the guesthouse to the Exit.6 of Metro station. So you can go everywhere easily.

Great value in a clean well-lighted place”
The hostel is located in a real neighborhood away from the madding Myeongdong crowd (but you can still walk there). It's just a 2-minute walk from the subway down the alleyway with great signage (just follow the copious instructions from the owner). Manager Subin Jo does a great job greeting his guests with a ready smile and offering upgrade options (if you don't want to share a room with three or five others, ask for a two-people room and pay a few US dollars more, as I did).

Thanks for your comment. I'm glad that my guesthouse was one of the budget guesthouses you were looking for. Most of my guests like the location of my guesthouse, too. Hope to see you again soon. Thanks.
Cheap, near to subway but a little creepy”
The small pathway to get to this guesthouse is a little creepy. The GH is a bit old. Nonetheless, it is the cheapest place to stay, near to subway. Never met the GH owner but the check in/check out processes and house rules are clearly mentioned via notes on the board/room in the GH.

Thank you for your valuable comment. I'll be trying to make my place more clean. I feel really sorry to you for your bad feelings you might have here. Hope you to find a better place so that you don't ruin your travel memory. Thanks.
Very good”
We were a family of 5 and we Stayed on bunk beds for 4 nights. It was a pleasant stay. We get to use the kitchen to cook rice and eat breakfasts. We usually get back to the gusthouse by 12 midnight and all the stores nearby are already closed. its quiet and dark but its really safe. The location is really good, easy to find. A walking distance to euljiro 3 station, a quick access to subway transportation. I have nothing bad to say. Its already good enough for the price we paid considering we only stay there to sleep at night and we get up early for our tours. Thank u Ms. Jo! If given the chance to come back to Korea, i will definitely book your place again! More power! 💖✨

Above average”
When I arrive at the exact check-in time, my bed is not made yet, although the staff replies quickly but the bed still needs to be ready later. It was highest 32 degree Celsius in the daytime but the staff says air- conditioner can only be used in the summer when asked. It is ok but the fan is noisy and the staff is not replying that friendly when asked politely, and it was not stated in the description too. There will be possibility that guests may not only want to stay in the guesthouse at the night, however it seems not that desirable to arrive and stay in the daytime. Value is just good if you are booking in the last minute as there are some better guesthouses with the same price in Hongdae if you book earlier. Pros are the wifi and PC, and the location is good for taking metro.

So so”
The room is very small for 6 peoples. The facilities is old but not too bad, I really feel like my home. Have 2nd floor to hang clothes, washing machine in 1st floor. Near subway station but far from Myeongdong street, if you comeback at midnight, you’ll meet too many drunker around the street

Great location”
The room was quiet and I had great roommates. The location is perfect and there is a metro station close by, plus 7/11. If you want to save some coins and still feel comfortable, that's the place for you!

Ms. Jo is very nice, i stayed for 5 nights and i didn’t had any problem. Ms. Jo is very helpfull including my roommate who stayed there for more than 2months already😄 At night the way to seoulmom is dark, there is no enough streetlights on the street. But, if you are not scared of the dark like me then it’s not a problem.

Dear Christine, Thank you for your comments. I'm glad you had no problem during your five day stay at my guesthouse. You are such a nice and thoughtful guest. About the dark narrow street to the guesthouse, I can say the alley is definitely safe. During the day, there are several shops doing mechanical works. I hope to host you again someday. Thanks.
