The location is not the one on the list

I got there by 9pm and all the doors were locked - the checkin supposed to be until 10pm. Luckily my Korean friend could call them and ask for help (I have to phone access here, only Internet). Them took us to another place a few blocks away - better location but to door keys or lockers (I had my work laptop with me..I just can't leave it sitting around). My bed was full of hair..I had to use my own towel to cover the pillow. Worst part: there are only two bathrooms to be shared between all the rooms - the description is not clear but at least toilets inside were expected.

Seul le prix est agréable

La guest n'a rien avoir avec les photos, la maison est beaucoup plus petite en réalité et n'a aucun charme, la gérante n'est pas très accueillante et aucune aide n'est apporter pour trouver la guesthouse dans le labyrinthe de petites rues qu'est le quartier de Itaewon.

Perfect place, value for money

Location is perfect, only 3 mins walking from the station, easy to get anywhere, and quiet at night. It is really clean, wifi works fast. Coffee and tea available for 24h. Public kitchen is so useful, and smoking is allowed in the yard. Based on cheap price, i had a good experience here, feel like at home. The only thing is the room i stayed is not so big, but that does not motter.

Rude young host

The host is very young with a rude attitude towards foreigners. She likes to talk about other guest so that makes me think she is talking about me behind my back as well. While I reserved online she would much rather people pay in person so she can get more money. She second guest everything I said and did to the point that if I wouldn't have paid in advance I would have left the first night.

One of the most value-for-money guesthouse ever!

Location: Perfect. Situated at the heart of itaewon, it is within comfortable walking distance to the subway. As the area may get noisy at night, Kame house is located at a quieter area with minimal noise disturbances. Cleanliness: Great. The house is regularly cleaned, and the common areas are clean and comfortable. Misc: Breakfast provided with simple toast and eggs. Able to do your laundry and hang at the courtyard for drying. Lady host is very friendly and helpful, and is able to converse effectively in English, Mandarin, and Korean. I'll strongly recommend this guesthouse to anyone who is looking for simple accommodation and touring Seoul!
