What guests think

Budget-friendly, Seoul Station R Guesthouse sits near Seoul Station; rooms run small to roomy, many clean and comfortable, though others report odors, dust, or bathroom mold, and facilities include occasional in-room kitchenettes and washers.

Staff are often friendly and helpful, but limited reception and self check-in can mean delayed responses; a few guests flagged door-code practices as a security concern. Bathrooms are very compact wet rooms, stairs can be steep or narrow for luggage, and some guests struggled with A/C or heating controls and water pressure or temperature; Wi‑Fi was reported as fast by some. Best for travelers prioritizing location and value over full-service amenities.

Location was very convenient to get to from Seoul Station. Room was nice and cozy and floors were heated. Only downsides were that floor was not level throughout hotel so we had to carry luggage up a few steps. Sound insulation was sufficient but still could hear neighbors door lock sounds. Otherwise great place!

You get what you pay for. Don’t expect a luxury experience. The rooms are clean, very close to Seoul station. The only problem is, you have to walk up a flight of stairs to get to your rooms. So if you have a large suit case, might be tough. Seen people struggle up the stairs with their luggage.

良かった点ソウル駅から近い周辺におしゃれなカフェがある静かちゃんと清掃されていて綺麗悪かった点バスルームが寒い２階の部屋だったが、入り口前の階段が傾斜が急で、階段幅が狭いので気をつけて。重いスーツケースを持って降りる時は転ばないよう注意が必要。バスタオルは毎日交換では無いようで、初日に誤って交換に出してしまったが、フロントにお願いしたらすぐに持ってきてくれた。清掃は毎日入らないので、気になる方はクイックルワイパーがあると便利。総合的に値段も安く、立地もいいのでオススメ。

The accommodation is very centrally located near Seoul Station. It is very quiet, despite its proximity to the station. Our room was equipped with a small kitchen and a washing machine. The room was very clean and ideal for our purposes. There was a small fridge with a freezer compartment in the bedroom. The internet was fast and good. The owner was very nice and showed us and translated everything (especially how to use the washing machine). He also has the R-Cafe nearby and was always available for questions etc. The guesthouse is highly recommended for anyone who wants to start their Seoul vacation centrally.

房間有種學生宿舍的既視感⋯ 房裡有打掃用的掃帚及殺蟲劑，感覺放了一陣子了因為有明顯的灰塵。衛浴空間很小，大約就一坪，在馬桶旁邊洗澡倒也不是個問題，但在那麼狹小的空間裡面還放了馬桶刷這讓我覺得很難受。房間內的洗衣機和電熱水器上都有灰塵，插座孔的灰塵更是厚厚一層，整個環境整潔需要加強，床我就不敢看得太仔細了，不過睡得還算舒適安穩。房間密碼簡單的跟wifi名稱一樣，覺得不是那麼安全。

We stayed for 1 night. The guesthouse was a bit tricky to find, but a nice man saw we looked lost and showed us the way. The room was clean and comfortable enough for the 1 night. It was quite hot and humid, and there was not a way to turn on the A/C as it was early March, so they would not give us the A/C remote. We ended up opening the windows and that seemed to work fine. The location was convenient as it's just across from Seoul Station.

Clean and very close to Seoul Station, but quite simple hotel for budget travellers. Despite online information about 24hr reception it took us 30 minutes to get in touch with staff (they ignored our knocking for a while, despite seeing us through the glass door). The rooms are OK, with extremely small bathrooms (you literally shower while sitting on the toilet)! If you don’t mind no-frills accomodation and need a cheap place in Seoul then I can recommend this place.

Book 9 nights for family stay. Found hotel in rundown neighborhood. Conditions of room not acceptable(see photos) so tried to check out early. Was told by check in staff that I would have to speak to owner for refund of remaining stay, and owner only spoke Korean. Contacted hotels.com for assistance and received poor customer service. Hotels.com tried calling owner on my behalf, number was not working. Owner called me directly, spoke English fine, and said he would not refund because “he did nothing wrong.” It took several phone calls over hours with long distance charges to get partial refund from hotels.com. Booked another hotel last minute at inflated prices to salvage rest of vacation. Hotel.com should do better job overseeing accommodations and taking care of its customers overseas.
