I had a relatively pleasant stay at Socuri Home Guesthouse primarily due to its central location and affordability. The dormitory setup offered privacy with individual compartments and curtains. However, the cleanliness of the shared bathrooms and the service experience were disappointing, especially regarding the management of toilet issues and staff interactions.

The bunk bed in the mixed dormitory was a highlight, with each bed featuring its own compartment, curtain, two electrical sockets, and a lamp. I appreciated the privacy it offered.

Service

5.0

Service was lacking, particularly in responding to cleanliness issues and handling of facilities. A female volunteer's reaction to a restroom situation was unprofessional and detracted from the overall experience.

Location

The location is fantastic, just a short distance to the subway and within reach of major attractions. This was one of the best aspects of my stay.

Breakfast was basic and could have benefited from better quality offerings. The absence of tea after the first day was disappointing for a tea lover like me.

Facilities

While the facilities were generally clean, the bathrooms left much to be desired, particularly the one that was clogged. More professional cleaning staff are needed to maintain standards.

I had a lovely stay at Socuri Home Guesthouse, though not without some small issues. The bunk bed in my mixed dormitory room was spacious and comfortable, and I truly enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from Gyeongbokgung Palace, but I did face some trouble with the lack of elevator access after 7 PM, especially with my larger bags.

The absence of an elevator after 7 PM and on weekends can be challenging if you have large bags. I definitely had my workout heading to the fifth floor!

The bunk beds in the mixed dormitory offered privacy with their curtains and charging options, but I wasn't provided a duvet, only a sheet, which left me cold at night.

I had a nice stay at Socuri Home Guesthouse. The location was fantastic, right near Gyeongbokgung Palace and close to a subway station, making it easy to explore the Jongno district. The capsule-style beds offered a bit of privacy, though they could have used some personal ventilation for comfort. I also found the bathrooms to be consistently clean. Still, the atmosphere felt a bit lacking in coziness, and I believe it could benefit from some additional amenities in the toiletries. Overall, it was a solid experience.

Rooms

The capsule-style beds provided decent privacy, but the heat made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. Big lockers were handy for my things.

The guesthouse is conveniently located close to the subway and major attractions like Gyeongbokgung Palace, which made getting around super easy.

The complimentary breakfast was simple but a nice touch. I enjoyed grabbing a quick meal before heading out.
