Very cool guesthouse in one of the hill-y neighborhoods of Seoul. I had a one night, solo stay. I was able to walk from Seoul Station to the guesthouse in about 25 minutes and was greeted on arrival and shown around the property. The host was very friendly. My room was comfortable and I had a bathroom to myself. The bathroom was detached from the bedroom. It was nice to stay in a more residential area after having stayed in more "touristy" areas of Seoul during my trip. I enjoyed my stay here and would stay again.

So the room is very clean itself. And the common area is clean. The front entry way and outside areas are dirty and there are lots of cobwebs. The ladies who run the guesthouse are pleasant. The bathroom for 201 is not attached; it is private but you must walk through the common area to get to it. The subway is about a 10-15 min walk. Not walkable to Seoul tower like I thought it would be. I mean it is, if you want to walk 40-45 min one way. You need to arrange timing with the ladies for arrival. Overall Iโ€™d stay there again, but other areas are better if youโ€™re a tourist.

Very friendly, welcoming staff. The guest house is clean, quiet, and has charm and character. It's also relatively close to Seoul station (15-20 minutes walk) and also a reasonable walk to Namsan Park and Huan Market. I really enjoyed my stay, and would definitely stay again.

A warm and premium traditionally built Guest house

My mun,sister and i have a very pleasant stay at Jiwoljang guest house.Hanna,hanna's mother and Nacy are very nice and friendly.Beds are very comfortable ,room is very clean and tidy,size is much bigger than those hotels' rooms in city.Location is great,just 10 minutes walk from Sookmyung women university station which is very close to tourist area like myeungdong ,you can even see Seoul Tower is just behing their Guest house area when you look up the hill. We enjoy our stay so much and took lots of pictures around their traditional guest house. Hanna and mama also drop us off at the nearest airport bus station ,extremely premium service since our flight schedule has changed and woke them up so early in the.morning. I highly recommend Jiwoljang guesthouse , i feel like home even i am in Seoul.
