It was OK for the price as it's a place to put away our stuff. The area was close to amenities and the subway is within a few mins walking distance. It was a self-check in/out. They change the towels and garbage daily. The area was quiet. The bed was hard but again, for the price, I can't really complain. There was free use of laundry service. They also respond to the messages really fast. The photos are of the places close to the area.

Nice, basic stay

Room was decent size and clean. The free washer and dryer on the 3rd was nice to have available. Only complaint is that mattress was a little too firm for my liking, but wasn't terrible and I still able to sleep well enough. I would rebook here again.

Most Value for money stay

Mr Naru, guesthouse owner, super friendly, always ever ready to help, with sightseeing, bicycle rental at Hangang River, postal services, restaurants reccomendation, fast food ordering and delivery, public bathhouse!
Other good stuff we like about Naru Guesthouse:
1. Abundant free flow of food( oranges, strawberries, instant noodles, juices, coffee, tea, cereals, milk, etc. Even though, these are meant for breakfast, Mr Naru generously allows us to help ourselves freely to these foods any time of the day!!
2)there was washing machine and dryer which we can use use freely at NO CHARGE!!
3) Many great Korean eateries near guesthouse
4) pretty near, abt 5 mins walk( without luggage) GongDeok Subway station, exit 4. This subway station is linked to 4 different lines, which is great n convenient to go almost anywhere!

Clean, convenient, & inexpensive

The location of this place was perfect for visiting nearby friends or hopping onto any of the 4 lines at the nearby (maybe 5min walk) metro stop! I was pleasantly surprised to have a cosy room with A/C and soaps/towel already in the personal shower. I would easily choose to stay here again whether heading out for an int'l flight or to visit friends!

Worth the money!

I found my stay really worth my money.
The hostel's location is really good, surrounded by many good restaurants, close to the subway that connects 4 lines and peaceful neighbourhood.
The hostel's owner is such a nice guy, helping me fix my luggage!

One drawback is only that I could hear people talking every night.
However, overall is really good :)

如果是短期旅遊(2-4天)且不介意髒的人其實蠻適合的。
首先優點:
地理位置不錯!孔德站4號出口手扶梯上來走5-10分鐘就到,附近有Gs25晚抵達還可以購買吃食、附近什麼不多咖啡店超多喜歡喝咖啡的人可以去喝爆、住宿有提供Wifi且非常順暢👍
住宿採無人自助型入住,櫃檯會放鑰匙並在上面貼上住宿人的姓名領取後開門即可,因為是老舊式所以都是插鑰匙孔的。

缺點:
入住時發現房門沒有鎖上是開的且旅館的大門長期開著!如果有小偷或者其他怪怪的人均可隨意進入,剛好單人房在一樓所以有點小小的可怕!
隔音沒有很好、地板很髒、冰箱冷氣均老舊但能用、床套、毛巾組合均有毛球且毛巾有怪味介意的人建議自己帶一次性床包還有毛巾。

我自己是不介意髒,但是進去腳底板踩的地板是真的很髒且有黑色蟲蟲(我自己是打了3隻)目測是因為木質地板才有的黑色蟲蟲。

浴室地板磁磚有一塊凹凸沒踩好的話會被刮到受傷;浴室的杯子、置物架、淋浴設備均很髒有垢如果不能接受淋浴設備有垢的建議自己帶。


建議住宿的人一律備好「酒精噴霧、酒精濕紙巾、一次性床包毛巾地板鞋、攜帶式淋浴設備」。
住宿的清潔人員每12-13點開始清潔,如果怕行李箱會被動的人記得上鎖。


結論:這次一個人住宿且短期旅遊我覺得還算可以,除了髒其他都還能接受!不介意的人可以來住看看唷!

ホステルとしては、立地も便利で、部屋も清潔で、トイレとシャワールームも広く快適に過ごせた。スタッフの方の対応も良かったし、
共有キッチンにウォーターサーバーも設置されていたので飲み物に困る心配なしでした。
寝るだけなら価格帯もお値打ちでGood!!

ただ、泊まった部屋のテレビがつながらなかったのと周りに飲食店が多いせいか夜中に小動物が壁越しに動く音が少し気になったのがちょっと残念だった。

それも旅の醍醐味として楽しめる方ならおすすめです。

잠만 자고 나오기에 딱인 곳. 건물 뒷편에 차량을 주차할 수 있었고, 숙박요금이 저렴해서 좋았어요. 뜨거운 물이 잘 나왔고, 청소상태도 나쁘지 않았어요. 방충망이 찢어져 있었는데 이 점은 보수하셔야겠어요.

安いだけ

友人の家から近いのでこのゲストハウスに3泊お世話になりました。

正直安いので期待してなかったですが、その通りでした。

部屋は一見綺麗ですが、床に知らない人の大量の髪が落ちていました。
部屋のスリッパ、トイレ・シャワーのスリッパが汚くて履けませんでした。
持参されるのが良いと思います。
アメニティも揃っていますが持参するのが良いと思います。

良い点は周辺は静かでした。
周辺は美味しい飲食店も多いし明洞や梨泰院まで近くて便利です。

部屋はオンドルで暑いぐらいです。

沒想到老闆會說中文!而且很有禮貌
更沒想到半夜回到旅社時老闆還在櫃檯!
當初預訂完後會發Email確認和告知交通方式
讓人訝異的是在寒冷的子夜回到旅社時
房間的地板是溫熱而非冷冰冰的
浴廁的空間和房間差不多大!!
旅社離仁川國際機場鐵路線的孔德站 (Gongdeok)非常近,而下一站就是首爾站

お部屋は快適でしたが、トイレとシャワールームに問題ありです

地下鉄駅からは徒歩10分以内といったところでしょうか。
市内バスの停留所はもっと近くにありました。
3階のお部屋でしたが、エレベーターはなく階段のみです。
ダブルベッドのお部屋かと思いきや、2段ベッドのお部屋でちょっと驚きました。
お部屋自体は1人なら十分な広さで、オンドルもきいていて快適でしたが、トイレとシャワーがある部屋は天井から雨漏りのように常に水漏れしていて(しかも数か所から)、これまで色々な宿に宿泊してきましたが初めての体験でした。

リラックマ部屋(笑)

ミュージカル観覧のために一泊しました。
MERSの影響で宿泊客が少なかったのか、2人部屋をシングルルームとして提供してくれました。お部屋はまさかのリラックマ部屋(笑)
ベッドの下に茶色いクッションがあったので、引っ張りだしてみたら…ベッドサイズの巨大リラックマがでてきました(笑)
女子には嬉しいお部屋でした。
フロントのお兄さんは日本語がある程度話せて親切でした。夜中の12時まで受付にいてくれます。
残念だったのは、建物が古いせいか、宿泊客が一斉にシャワーを使うとお湯が出なくなってしまうこと。蒸し暑い夜だったので、ぬるくてもギリギリ大丈夫でしたが、冬なら厳しいです。お湯の件が解決すれば、なかなか楽しいホテルだと思います(^-^)

中国語と英語の堪能なお兄さんが宿直している。日本語も多少は通じる。非常にフレンドリー
個室で宿泊したが、床暖房付き。部屋は狭いが、トイレとシャワーは付属。
窓が締め切られていて、日照が悪いのが難点だった。
朝食は8時から、簡単なパンなどのものとコーヒー。
ゲストハウスにしては交流する場は小さかった。

宿泊するだけと割り切れば、清潔感もそこそこあり、また特に騒音等も無かったので、良いと思う。
