For solo female travellers, this is a safe and comfortable place to stay. The street leading to the apartment is well lit at night and monitored by security cameras. Although the neighbourhood is quiet, you will usually still see a few locals out and about.The apartment is in a pleasant area (with rather K-drama vibes than touristic-vibes) and both the home and the guest room are very clean and nicely furnished. The owners are very friendly and helpful, and they check in from time to time to make sure everything is going well for you. There are four guest rooms in total and two shared bathrooms, so there is no queue in the morning. Overall, the stay offers very good value for money, and I would be happy to come back again.

“Exceptional experience from start to finish”
Every aspect was exceptional ... from the cleanliness of the room to the warm and hospitality of the owner. It is rare to find a place where you feel both well taken care of and completely at ease and this homestay delivered both. The posted pictures are 100% real ... what you see in pictures is exactly what you get. I strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Seoul. I would definitely come back whenever I have the chance. Thank you HHZib for everything. Yehia

I stayed here for around 2 weeks or more, this is my second time staying here it's honestly a home away from home ❤ the host always worked with me to accommodate me for the extra stay time and was super welcoming into their lovely home. I will be staying here again when I visit Seoul :)

Beautiful space, super comfortable, incredibly friendly hosts that are there to help you with whatever needs you have, and always responsive, even making sure everything is good with you by their own, the apartment is very well equipped, very clean and really homely. Even tho during my stay all other rooms were occupied I felt perfectly private in my space and comfortable in the common spaces, 100% recommended, would love to stay there again

“The accommodation is a gem. Exceptional.”
The accommodation is just an exceptional place. First, the owners. Kind, open, communicative, responsive, lovely presence and the energy. Second, the room and the apartment. Just great! Spotless. Beautiful creative interior design. Comfortable mattress with the good pillow. Toiletries in the bathroom, sachets of coffee, tea, noodles and cereals in the kitchen, refillable drinking water for the guests to use it. Access to the fridge, washing machine and dryer. Very good AC, dehumidifier in the room, hot shower with great water pressure, quiet at night. Third, the area. Quiet neighbourhood, good bus/subway connections, few cafes and grocery shops, you need to walk up the hill to get to the apartment which I liked and took it as a little workout.
