新設洞駅から近い＾＾
受付は常に無人です。連絡するとすぐ来てくれると他のゲストが教えてくれました。 チェックインは事前にメールが来てましたが連絡してなかったので２０時半頃でしたが玄関にセキュリティー解除の番号と部屋番号がプリントされた紙が貼ってありました。 建物は古いですが中はまーまー。清潔感はもう少し欲しいところですが安いので。。。 ベットは固め。シャワーは熱いのがしっかり出ます。エアコン効きます。タオル使い放題。 洗濯も無料洗剤も置いてあります。スリッパあり。リンスインシャンプーbodyソープあり。 歯ブラシハンガーは無し。冷蔵庫洗濯機は共同で１階のキッチンにあり水とお湯もありました。 ５泊しましたが掃除は自分でしました。 タオル使い放題と洗濯無料がありがたかったです。 最寄り駅の新設洞には肉典食堂が３店舗ありモクサル美味しかったです＾＾ コンビニも近くにありました。

負責人親切，交通便利，平價的客棧好選擇
負責人Rafa親切又語言溝通良好，有問題詢問都能獲得解答；客棧距離6002號機場巴士非常近，小走一段路就會到新設洞地鐵站也便利；客棧附近不少餐廳，覓食便利；一樓房間容易聽到大門開啟的聲音及腳步聲，雖然隔音較差，但依照這樣的價位算可以接受的。

シャワーはあんまり浴びたくない
駅から近い、安いという点で決めました。 部屋は狭いけど清潔、泊まるには十分です。駅からホステルまでの道が少し臭かったので不安でしたが、部屋は変な匂いはしなかったです。トイレと洗面所とシャワーが同じ空間にあって、そこはすこしにおいがしたかな。シャワーをあびるためのカーテンがない、なんの区切りもないという感じでした。広めのトイレにただシャワーがあるという感じ。そこで浴びるのはためらってしまい、一駅ぐらい歩いてスパレックスという健康ランドのようなところにいきました。

다시 고민을...
저렴하다고 선택했지만 너무 별로에요! 방에서 그리마랑 다른 벌레도 나오고..벌레만 두마리 잡았네요. 화장실은 세면대 물은 잘 빠지는데 수도꼭지가 뻑뻑하구 바닥에 있는 하수구는 물이 잘 안빠져요! 발씻다가 물로 한강되고 몇 분 지나야 물이 빠지구요.. 저는 아침에 머리도 못 감구 샤워두 못하구 나왔어요. 그리고 1층에 머물렀는데 2층으로 올라가는 계단소리도 방에서 들리고 옆방 소리는 당연히 다 들려요.

위치는 지도 보고 찾아가셔야 합니다. 골목길 내에 있어서.
저는 트윈실 이용하였는데. 우리나라 모텔 1인실 가격에 트윈실을 이용할수 있어 좋았습니다. 그리고 개인 욕실도 있고 수건도 있고 다 좋은데 칫솔 치약은 없어요. 개인 구비 하셔야 합니다.

方便又簡易的民宿
1.離捷運、機場巴士都近 2.找吃的方便(餐廳、便利商店) 3.公共區提供飲水機、餐具、冰箱 4.房間簡易(非吸菸)有床、壁架、吹風機、電暖爐、桌子、沐浴乳、洗髮精，共用室內拖 5.房間與浴室外觀整潔度尚可接受 6.隔音部分，淺眠的人可能容易被吵到(多少會有點噪音)，不然大致上還可接受 7.客房打掃服務部分個人覺得還須加強，因為好像只幫我們清掉垃圾而已 以上整體來說，很滿意這次的住宿經驗。

Cheap, convenient, clean, but minimal comfort
The room was rather Spartan and the bed quite narrow... it wasn't much of an issue for me as I am rather thin (66 kilos), but if you are a big guy, it might be not be very convenient. But I give it 4 stars overall for price and convenience. Staying in an individual room + bathroom in a city like Seoul for 25 USD/night is really cool, and as they say "you get what you pay for", so for me, there is nothing to complain about. I was too busy exploring the city to care about my room anyway. ;)

시설은 깨끗하고 가격도 저렴하지만 위치가 좀 애매합니다.
숙소 자체는 다른 게스트 하우스에 비해 시설도 깨끗하고 개인 욕실까지 있어 좋았습니다. 숙박하는 날 미리 연락을 해 주는 서비스도 좋았습니다. 다만, 위치가 애매해서 이동 시 무조건 교통 수단을 이용해야 하는 게 좀 불편한 점이었습니다. 처음 가는 사람에게는 찾는 것도 아주 조금 어려웠습니다. 하지만 가격 대비 만족합니다.

Average guesthouse but very cheap
This is an average guesthouse and for the price we paid, we'd have extended it if we weren't at the end of our Korea trip. There was a sale so the double room with private bathroom that we stayed at was worth it. The thing I didn't like was that it was hard to find, and you had to go into two alleys. We went down the wrong alley and got lost. They only posted a sign to the guesthouse from one direction but we came in through another street and didn't see anything. The best part was it's an amazing restaurant area, lots of good eateries just right outside those alleys and we'd have loved to explore the food in that area more. Some hotels we stayed at in Korea wasn't by that many restaurants with such huge choices. It also had AC in our room and that was nice because the window was really small and the room not very large so it would have gotten stuffy otherwise.
