Great place to stay in Gangnam! Staff is super friendly, and very close to bus and subway to easily get around the city. I appreciate having washing machines available for guests!
Great staff and cleaning services. For a solo traveler like myself, I like the property and amenities provided. Having both microwave and fridge in room helps to minimize having to go out constantly to buy a meal. I'm able to stock & microwave convenience store meal items and just eat in the privacy my room.
Room was small but good, great location. Has a lift to take you to all floors. Has towels in the room. I would recommend for short stays. About a 10 min walk from Sinsa station, as well as Nonhyeon station, and the bus connections are amazing. Airport bus can take you to and from Sinsa station, so has a direct link to Incheon airport.
The hotel owners are an elderly couple. They are very friendly and hospitable. The rooms are clean and tidy, and I had a wonderful experience staying here. On the day I was leaving Korea, I had an accident and lost my passport. They went out of their way to call shops and the subway station to help me search for it. Fortunately, I got my passport back, but I was in such a rush to the airport that I didn't have time to say goodbye and thank them! Thank you! i will visit again very soon!
This place is cozy and family run the place
I stayed comfortably and people in the place
were nice hospitality

Cannot leave luggage after checkout beyond 18:00, making it very difficult for travelers. Otherwise the old condition of the room is more than compensated by the friendly and courteous staff.

The place was cute and foreigner friendly. Seven eleven super close by, and everything else is walking distance. My transportation of choice was the bus and it was really close as well. The room was cute not too small, but the bed was a little hard. The bathroom could have been a little cleaner, but other than that it was overall a good stay.
The host was very friendly and helpful. It was more like a hostel than hotel. I was waking up with some kind of bugs/Mosquito bites.
Overall a ok place for some days for a low price.

Just minutes from the airport bus stop and Sinsa subway station. A bit too steep around the property, though. Mattress was too thin, and the bathroom booth (?) was tiny. But, staff was very friendly and informative.
English speaking staff. Very helpful. Great location for Gangnam shopping - walkable everywhere. Bus (6009) stop to and from Incheon airport is only 100 meters away. Rooms are good reasonable if you are using only to sleep. I was out and shopping all day and used the room only to sleep. Rooms are outdated but gets the job done.

I can relax in E residense,but ordor of room is peculiarity.It is a improvement point,I think.
5-6 min walk from Sinsa station exit 3, which is an exciting area.
Would save you a lot of money if you are staying around the area for long.
Front desk staff ( probably the owners) are nice.
And was surprised there was a washing machine you can use.
However, while they hadclaimed that there would be cleaning every 4 days, there was no cleaning during my 9-day stay. Personally no problem with that but it would hv been better to be told about it .
Great affordable place to stay in Gangnam! Very clean room and friendly staff! There is even washing machines on several floors that guests can use, along with complimentary detergent — this was very convenient as I usually travel light, and need to wash my clothes during my stay.
