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.
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.
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
