Great apartment in a residential part of Seongsu. The apartment is a really nice spot to base yourself if you want a bit more of a local vibe while staying in Seoul. It's on a quiet residential street. It's about a 10-15min walk to the train...

Foarte curat, poziționată bine , singurul inconvenient a fost ca pentru 2 persoane a fost cam micuț spațiul, în rest a fost foarte ok 👌 💕🤗

清潔で内装がかわいかった。テレビもすごく大きく、コンビニで買ったご飯を部屋で食べるのにとても快適だった。部屋も広く、90Lくらいのスーツケース2個余裕で広げられました。ベットもフカフカ、あったかかった。コンセントもたくさんあって、快適でした。
