We booked this guest house when we saw the picture. We would like to stay same as Korean people stay in routine. From map we thought it far from Metro station but we acceptable. But when we walk from station to guest house, oh i not far. 

Staff is very friendly and helpful. The guest house are lovely!!!!

We bought ice cream from CU mart and having it on guest house rooftop like Korean series usually do, hehehe :)

Nice Korean Living

Stuff is nice, rooms are clean with television, breakfast is ok. Late check in is also possible. What else to say?
Actually I used a discount on booking com and the price was descent but normal price would be way too much!

Good guesthouse

Pro's: (1) proximity of the guesthouse to the metro station of Gyeongbokgong (exit 2, line 2); (2) proximity even by foot to a few MUST sightseeings in Seoul (Gyeongbokgong Palace, Bucheon Hanok Village, Changdeokgung Palace, Blue House, Gwanghwamun Square, Inwangsan Jarak-gil Trail); (3) Staff is extremely friendly and helpful; (4) Breakfast is ok, you can have coffee, tea, fruit juices, peanut butter, marmelade, toasts, and is all you can eat; (5) Wi-fi quality was very good.

Con's: (1) the bedroom is very tiny (for european standards!), even though the size of bed is enough and comfortable; (2) the bedroom was never cleaned during my 5-day stay. Indeed, I do not know if you have to ask for it, but I found it simply bizarre that they did not even ask me; (3) the guesthouse is not very easy to find, as there is no sign indicating it. The only reference sign you can have is a shop called "England". Once you find it, the guesthouse is on the right of the side road; (4) English level of the staff is ok but it could be improved.

Sufficient enough but with room for improvement

Pros: 
- cool staff
- english speaking staff
- clean and spacious (4br)
- nearby market
- wifi
- near bus station
- walking distance to gyeongbokgung palace

Cons:
- far from shopping areas
- they are not cleaning your room
- limited breakfast (no egg, milk, cereals)
- far from train station (this is so important)
- common CR

Great guesthouse but a little far

My sons, wife and myself recently had a three day stay at seowon guesthouse. We couldnt fault the room or the staff. Everything about it was fantastic. As my two boys says, it's their best day ever! Even my wife and I was overwhelmed of the place. All four of us enjoyed our stay and I would recommend the guesthouse and to all. 

We Went back home with empty pockets but full of Happy Memories! 

We'll definitely go back!

Stayed July 2016, traveled with family
