Hide & Seek Guesthouse

The manager, Jun, is kind and accommodating. He let us store some luggage while we visited another part of Korea. The bedroom is big and has a heated floor!! Beds are comfortable. In the common area, there is a small kitchen with a small refrigerator to store your food. There is a nice roof deck and a large TV area with a table for eating or reading. The hotel is a few blocks from the Gyeongbokgong station. From the gate, cross the road, walk right 2 blocks. Turn left and the guest house is on the left about a block down. The entrance is in the back. Lots of places to eat about 2 blocks away.

The guest house was really cosy I had a large room with an en-suite bathroom all to myself. The host was lovely and couldn't do enough for you. There's a sink and hot water downstairs which is great for making tea or coffee and seating if you want yo meet new travellers. Entry to the doors is with a passcode so easy to get in at any time. The WiFi is good and generally the place is quiet. The owners cleaned every day. The location is perfect - really central and close to attractions, tucked away from the main road. The beds are hard but I think that is typical for South Korea and not unique to this property. The only con was the curtains let in light and there is a small window in the door as well as in the side wall, so I was sleeping with an eye mask. It would only take some new curtains to fix this. Otherwise I had a great stay. If you are staying here please listen when the host says to turn the lights off when not in use - many guests didn't do this. This isn't the owner's fault.
