This guest house could be a dream. Well located, garden that could be awesome. Unfortunately, the guest house is not that clean (a lof of dust under the beds), windows dirty. I asked to be cleaned but nothing really changed. The entrance is a little bit messy. I would not come back. However, the staff was nice. Could be an amazing place, too bad.
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.
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.
