Wow Factor Stay

The host are great and friendly. Excellent homemade breakfast. The house is near to the subway station.

The house is rather small but with all facilities needed.

The location was good Owners we very nice

The room was sooo small Coffee terrible Breakfast room was strange and stuffy The outside garden was awful, over grown and not looked after. Such a shame

The hosts are what made this stay memorable. They went out of their way to answer all our questions and help us out. We had wanted the pink room - but we didn't ask ahead, so it might be worth your time to investigate ahead and see which room you want. Room was pretty central, the bed was super comfy and overall it was a nice break from hotels to feel like you're staying in someones house. Totally loved our stay. ;)

HOSTS: Our hosts were incredible!! So friendly and easy to talk to. You can see how much they love running this B&B. Easy to communicate with before and during the stay. BREAKFAST: The breakfast was prepared with lots of love and care. Flavor was excellent, and the way it's served is so cute too. Really WOW factor. ROOM: The room/suite we had was small, but was perfect for our needs and was clean and cute. You might have problems if your bags are too big, but we made it work anyway, even with two huge pieces of luggage and some small bags. Nice to have a kitchen too. LOCATION: Hongdae is the best district to stay in Seoul for sure. Great cafes, entertainment, restaurants, street food, and night shopping all within a few blocks' walk. The nice thing about this house is that it's on the other side of the main street, and so despite being in Hongdae, it's in a quiet and peaceful area. Also just a 5 min walk to the nearest subway stop, which is part of the Airport Line.

At some point in our stay, we noticed that there was some (black) mold forming around/at the back of the main door, which is metal. Easily remedied by wiping it clean with some antimold spray and airing it out, though. We just noticed after a few days, since I was sensitive to its odor having had a bad reaction to it in the past at our own home. Wasn't that bothered about it overall, since the bedroom was separate, but this should be cleaned, especially as it gets hot and humid in the summer. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay.

Feels like home, breakfast delicious (Korean food), the owner very kind.

For 5 person, the room is on the third floor, it is kind a hard if travelling with senior Or child.

The room was very comfortable with two queen size beds and one sofa/bed. The interiors were very relaxing and warming. They had refrigerator, kitchen with enough supply to stay, a box of tissue papers, and some bathroom items like hand soap, shampoo, hair treatment, and body wash. They also had two towels for each person, a big bath towel and a small face towel. We stayed for three days and were able to get a new towel by messaging the owner. Almost everything was satisfying! At last but not least, the owner was truly a nice and kind person! Thank you!

The shower was a bit difficult to use. The toilet and shower aren’t separated and we needed use the toilet with wet floors after use. Was not very uncomfortable nor very comfortable, they were ok. Thank you.

It's perfect location arnd hongdae, hapjeong and mangwon area. Room was nice as same as pictures and nice host! Breakfast was excellent and I highly recommend this hostel.

Hmmm nothing

Wow Factor was a cute guest house located right in the middle of Hongdae. The owners were nice and helpful. I love all the decoration. Very cute and homey. Breakfast was awesome. You will get surprise every morning ^^ (order breakfast and you'll know what I meant).

The only thing I'm not certain of is they didn't clean the room for us. This is my first time staying at guest house so I'm not sure if it's normal.

We loved the breakfast that they prepared every morning. Also they provided quick responses to any of our questions. I was sick during my stay and they made me a Korean remedy to help with my cough.

The place isn’t too far from Hongdae station and other bus stops. It’s in walking range to the famous Hongdae neighborhood, which is convenient for tourists who like shopping and like eating. The heater is in good condition. The room feels warm and is fully equipped, a little too small though. Everything in the house is so clean! We like the place’s atmosphere. There is always good background music in the co-space.

The host isn’t as friendly as expected. They couldn’t really give us any recommendation on the neighborhood. We only spoke words, which is fine to me but some people might wanna reconsider. The breakfast is considered expensive in my opinion. It’s below my expectations. It is healthy and feels very Korean though, but there was no meat or eggs at all, hardly any protein. There is a restaurant just a block away serving breakfast buffet with a variety of foods, bakery, dairy and fruits for only 9000 krw. With the breakfast’s price of 10000 krw, i think i could find a better valued Korean breakfast. The room is stated to be 25 sq.m. so i expected it to be a little larger, I guess 25 sq.m. is both the bathroom and the bedroom included, which the bathroom already occupies half of the space. The bedroom hardly fits 2 Asian females and 2 28” bags. i booked the deluxe mint room btw.

주택가에 있어서 조용한 편이어서 좋았고 주인되시는 분이 친절하고 따뜻하셔서 정말 좋았어요. 아침 조식도 맛있게 먹었습니다.

스튜디오라 부엌과 전용욕실 있는 게 정말 좋았습니다. 주인부부 두 분 다 친절하시고 조식도 진짜 정갈하고 맛있습니다. 하루만 묵은 게 너무 아쉬웠습니다. 시간이 된다면 또 머물고 싶습니다.

굳이 아쉬운 점을 하나 말한다면, 홍대입구역이랑 조금 거리가 있어 횡단보도를 두 개 정도 건너야 되는 점을 꼽겠습니다.

아침식사 정갈하게 잘 나와서 너무 좋았고 여러부분에서 세심하게 방을 준비하셨다는게 많이 느껴져서 정말 만족했어요 크리스마스라서 방 분위기도 색다르게 꾸미셨더라구요

사장님이 친절하시고 좋았어요..^^ 아침 조식도 깔끔하고 좋았답니다.

브라이덜샤워로 5명 이용했는데 방이 예쁘고 안락했습니다^^ 다음날 조식이 너무 정갈하고 예쁘게 나와 감탄하고 사장님 부부께서 너무 친절하셔서 감사했어요ㅎㅎ 후식까지 살뜰하게 챙겨주심 ㅠㅠ

방이 생각했던것보단 약간 좁은느낌? 사진에서는 부엌이랑 침대공간이 별개인줄 알았는데 ㅋㅋ 다 같은 공간에 있어서 놀랏어용ㅋㅋ 그리고 3층이라 올라가는 철제계단이 쪼끔 무섭다는거..고소공포증 있으신분 주의ㅜㅜ

위치도 정말 좋았구(역근처, 근처에 여러종류의 편의점) 인테리어도 너무 아기자기해서 들어서자마자 와아- 했어요! 침대에 있던 곰돌이수건도 귀여웠어요. 비가 와서 즐기진 못했지만 야외테이블도 있어 예뻤고 침구세트도 좋아 편안히 쉴 수 있었습니다. 숙박한 다음날 차려주신 조식도 너무 맛있고 스누피모양으로 만들어주셔서 사진찍느라고 바빴네요. 나중에 근처에서 묵을일이 있다면 또 올 생각 100%네요. 잘쉬다가용^^️

화장실 물이 잘 안내려가요 ㅠㅅㅠ

사장님들은 너무 좋아서 즐거운 시간이 보냈습니다. 그리고 아침 식사는 진짜 맛있습니다.

사장님 내외의 정성스런 식사가 너무 맛있었어요. 위치도 전철역과 가깝고 이동하기 편했습니다. 다음기회에 다시 방문하고 싶네요^^

늦은 시간에 체크인 했는데도 친절히 맞아주셔서 정말 감사했어요. 방도 깔끔하고 전체적인 인테리어가 너무 예뻤어요. 무료로 제공되는 아침식사도 정말 맛있었어요.

주택가 안쪽에 있어서, 위치를 찾는게 조금 어려웠어요. 그리고 주택이다보니 거실에서 말하는 소리가 방으로 너무 잘 들렸어요. 저희 말고 묵으셨던 분들이 7시쯤부터 거실에서 큰소리로 말씀하시는데 그소리에 저절로 잠이 깼어요. 늦은밤이나 아침 일찍은 공용공간을 조용히 사용할 수 있도록 해주시면 더욱 좋을 것 같아요~~

외국 거주중인 사람입니다. 한국에서 잠깐 묵게될때 이용했는데 주인분이 매우 친절했고, 다시 서울에서 머무르게 된다면 다시 이용하고 싶습니다. 주인 내외분 건강하게 사셨으면 좋겠습니다.

없었습니다 : )
