It was a fantastic stay! The studio is small, but has all the necessities, it is super-clean and located in a beautiful, colorful and calm street in the center of Seoul. Included in the stay, there is also a nice breakfast (toast with jam and peanut butter, orange juice, coffee, tea, boiled eggs and cereals). Amy, the owner of the place, is kind and a wonderful person- thanks to her and her kindness we felt very welcome in Korea. After this stay, we travelled through Korea and stayed in other places, but 318 Stay was definitely our favorite. Our best greetings to Amy! If we come back to Seoul, we'll definitely go there.

Oh God! This was an amazing experience, indeed it was great! The location: super amazing. A five minute walk from myeongdong subway station, which was quite convenient, because it is super central. This is the station with the gorgeous night food market. It was also super practical to go to the airport early morning. I could only have breakfast one morning, as the other ones I had to leave before seven o’clock in the morning. But that was tasty and handy (you prepare your own food - I liked the idea!). The sisters who run the place: they are amazing, organised, funny and super cool! On my last day, they gave me a couple of Korean CDs, which I really, really liked. All in all: a superb experience!

The host was really helpful and kind. She helped me with my luggage issue. The apartment was perfect for one person and the facilities was enough. The location was perfect close to Sinchon metro station and really close to the famous youth area "Hongdae". I will definitely choose again Coco stay for my next trip to Korea :) Thanks Min for everything!

where do i even begin! this was my second stay at HHZIB and it was definitely a different experience and almost a year apart from the last. they made many small improvements to shared spaces and really paid attention to the details of the home. the home is as clean as ever and they still use the same luxuriously scented amenities (soaps and all~) there's everything you need and more. i love using their kitchen. they provide such a nice spread of breakfast staples and the kitchen is fully-functioning and so easy to whip up a meal. they also make recycling really easy with the bins at the lift lobby. this neighbourhood is so quiet,, but not scary (as a woman). it's very much picturesque and a sight to behold each morning walking down the hill to get the day started. they provide a nice list of recommendations in the vicinity and for other tourist spots as well. there's a nice little whiskey bar in the neighbourhood! the hosts are such a joy >< they noted that the thermostat was a little cold (20c) for someone like me who comes from a tropical country (average 30c daily temp). so they dropped me a text to remind me where the thermostat is (though i enjoyed the temp as is ahahah it's the thought that counts) also,, they gifted me a set of korean cutlery as it was my second stay and that's such a nice practical keepsake. as long as i can afford,, i will return ^^

The property was clean and comfortable, very cozy as well. I went in the fall and didn’t feel cold at night. All the facilities were provided as described and Min (the owner) was extremely nice and friendly! I was really happy with my stay and will definitely be staying here again the next time I go to Korea!

    What an experience to stay in a traditional Hanok Homestay! The owners are a friendly couple who made me feel very welcome. One highlight for me was the traditional Korean breakfast, freshly prepared every morning.

    I liked seeing a mom with her son, just like me. I booked Homestay Eve because it was the last leg of a long vacation with just me and my son and I figured I would need someone to identify with and somewhere to feel at home. The place is relatively easy to find. She provided good directions, but I didn’t need to use them.
