Hotel Analysis
Based on 9 sites · 838 reviews
A small guesthouse in Yeonnam-dong, Seoul, near Hongdae in a quiet residential area. Many reviews say it's safe to walk around even late at night.
Travelers often mention the capsule beds are cozy and spacious. Curtains provide good privacy, with outlets and lights inside. The shared kitchen has well-equipped utensils and fridge for simple cooking. Free laundry and luggage storage are handy for long-term travelers.
However, bathrooms and showers are limited to one per floor, leading to lines in mornings and evenings. Some note weak hot water or slippery floors on the 2nd floor. Reviews also express concern for the dog Jerry chained in the yard.
Suits solo female travelers or budget backpackers. Self check-in allows 24-hour access.
