About this property

From Zero to Hero: 2BR Haven in the Heart of HBC!

  • Chic 2BR basement oasis, reborn from the ashes into a cozy and cute retreat! Just 4 doors down from the heart of the vibrant nightlife, our apartment is a stone's throw from The Studio for live music/comedy, The Rabbithole Arcade Pub - a beloved LGBTQ+ bar, Phillies Pub, plus a wealth of cafes and restaurants. Once unlivable, now brimming with charm, this place is a testament to revival. Please note, due to building rules, we cannot accommodate dogs, children or parties. LGBTQ+ friendly.

    Getting around from Haebangchon is convenient, thanks to Seoul's comprehensive public transport network. Noksapyeong Station (Line 6) is the nearest subway station, which provides easy access to various parts of Seoul. The area is also served by several bus lines that can take you directly to different districts within the city. Taxis are plentiful and relatively affordable, providing another convenient option for getting around.

    Seoul's major tourist sites are easily reachable from Haebangchon:

    Insadong: From Noksapyeong station, travel to Anguk station to explore the unique blend of traditional and modern Korean culture in Insadong.

    Hongdae: Known for its youthful energy and nightlife, Hongdae is a quick bus or subway ride from Haebangchon.

Save your & stay somewhere else! This is the most deceptive, worst listing we've ever booked. Dont believe the pics. They require you to send them a copy of your credit card & license. Many things were broken, cracked or bad. I got a spider bite & an allergic reaction dt high chlorine level in pool. They sent a repair team but their fixes werent skilled. This is only a make scheme with as little upkeep possible.
A hole in the bathroom door was badly patched
A badly repaired cracked in the wall in the primary bedroom. There's cracking in most of the rooms' ceilings.
Front flowerbeds are dirt & you have to walk through dirt (mud) to get to the front door bc you park in the back. The cement front steps are falling inward.
Someone drew on the wall in the 2nd bathroom

Appartement bien situé pour accéder notamment à la Namsn Tower. Appartement des bus. Par contre appartement très humide donc pas adapté aux longs séjours.
