G Guesthouse Itaewon In Seoul

The hosts were so thoughtful and attentive from start to finish. The checkin and checkout process both went very smoothly. I quite enjoyed the common area, which spurred a lot of social interaction between guests, as did the rooftop area. One of the hosts was making lunch on a day while I was there and offered to share with me and another guest. We all ended up having a lovely meal together with great conversation. The hostel is located very close to the main strip of bars in Itaewon. I'll certainly stay here again when I'm in Itaewon in the future.

It was quiet overall for the Monday and Tuesday nights I stayed. The floor heating was very quick to come on, the shower was hot and had good water pressure . The staff was exceptionally helpful, offering to bring my heavy suitcase down two flights of stairs, coming to the room when I couldn’t turn on the a/c (heat) and replacing the batteries in the remote control. The man in reception ordered a taxi for me so that he could track its arrival and I could wait inside until it arrived. I truly felt like a guest, rather than a customer!

I had an incredible stay here. If you are looking for a hostel vibe in Seoul, this is by far the perfect choice. Legendary rooftop that has been featured across Korean TV and Kpop videos; a gritty (on purpose) aesthetic that is charming and brings out the positive vibes immediately; and a location riht in the center of Seoul's biggest nightlight district. ITs incredible. I want to add that the staff and owners are *unbelievably* friendly. I had some medical needs and the owner took it upon himself personally to make sure that I, as a tourist in a foreign country, received the proper care I needed. Down to offering to come to the clinic during his work hours and being a translator between myself and the doctor ... which he did! I could go on and on. So -- impeccable vibes, great location, and the friendliest, most giving hostel staff that I've ever encountered!

Stay here for the vibe, not the shared bathrooms. Good location less than 5 mins to the station in an interesting neighbourhood, helpful staff, and a very chill friendly place to stay. There were a lot of stairs, and staying in the four-person mixed dorms on the third floor, I sometimes had to wait for the bathroom which almost always had a wet floor. The beds each had an electrical outlet, small shelf, and useful little hooks. There is a small free breakfast and the room and bed were clean. Great common areas, love the rooftop.

I like the welcoming vibe and english speaking staffs! Also there’s breakfast, free water and ice, and you can also cook. Price is affordable and room and bed is clean! Location is perfect as everything you need (convenience stores, atm, restaurants, bars, etc, bus stop, and train station) is less than 5 Minutes walk.
