Would really want to gatekeep this but I think people must know how great of a stay this place is. Pros: - Hospitality is top notch I have no words.🙏 - I felt safe staying there. - Quiet neighborhood. - Strong water pressure. Can still be improved: - Cleanliness - Facility is quite dated. Maybe a small renovation would be nice. - Mosquitoes

This place is a gem! Seriously, I had a private room and bathroom and it was exactly what I needed. There was a bathtub which was great for soaking after the freezing rain! Changdeokgung Palace is a block away and Gyeongbokgung Palace is an easy walk as is Bukchon Hanok Village. Close to transportation and wonderful dining options in Insadong. I am so glad that I stayed here! I was traveling alone and lost my wallet and the owners were so kind and helpful! There is a 7eleven steps away that takes ApplePay in case you need it, like I did!! The guesthouse allowed me to store luggage after checkout for no cost. It really is an excellent find!

한가지 빼고 모든게 좋았던 ^^

긴가 민가하며 예약을 했는데^^ 방만 더 가능했으면 그 후에 예약했던 호텔을 취소하고 이 비원게스트 하우스에 계속 있을 수 있어도 좋겠다 생각했네요.. 위치며 안전함 또 가격대비 가성비 정말 최고 였어요. 창덕궁 바로 앞쪽에 위치한 게스트 하우스.. 24시간 편의점도 걸어서 1분거리에 있고 5분 정도 걸으면 익선동 또 한정거장 걸어서 인사동, 바로 길건너편으론 북촌, 최고의 위치에 있네요. 근데 한가지 아쉬웠던 건 밤에 복도에 불이 안 켜져 있어서 오가는데 좀 무서웠던~~ 계단을 올라갈땐 센서등이 있어서 계단쪽으론 자동적으로 불이 켜지는데 그 외에 복도는 불이 전혀 안 켜져서 새벽이나 밤에 오가는데는 사람이 전혀 안보이는데 좀 무서웠어요. 1층에 낮에는 오히려 불이 켜져있던데 낮보단 밤에 불이 켜져 있는데 투숙객들이 오가는데 안전감을 느끼지 않을까 싶습니다. 다음에 한국 방문한다면 꼭 다시 이용하고 싶은 숙소로 추천합니다!

Very outstanding staff, although I booked and couldnt show up they refused any kind of payment and were incredibly kind to me. This is the kind of people we need running the world. I cant wait until I can meet them in person.

Does the cat count as staff? Was very happy to see the kitty there. The hostel was terrific, and a great value too! The hostess were very pleasant and friendly; although to be fair, I need to learn more Korean. The location to 7-11, local eateries (non-chain) and tourist/historical sites were a very nice bonus. Location from a bus stop, and train were easy walking distance. Although I traveled during a hot (to me) period -- it's summer after all, the air conditioner helped out a lot, which cooled the room pretty quick. Plenty of room in the dresser for unloading my flight bag. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay of which I would like to see again, perhaps in the winter to see how it is.

Beewon is a good place to stay

Beewon is a well priced accomodation located in a pretty neat area of downtown Seoul. The room was tidy and came with usual things you would expect (shampoo, toothbrush, tooth paste etc...). As I stayed during winter the floor heating was amazing. The only thing was the towel supplied was the size of a hand towel which wasn't ideal, but I survived! I would recommend this place.

Beewon around 5 min walk to subway but be careful if you are walking at night. Many mini drink store open at night. Btw, thank you alex! Allowed us early check in. The room is big and well maintained. Maybe breakfast could be vary, instead of only toast/bread/jam. Take care!

Pleasant stay in a tree-lined, quiet neighborhood

Beewon Guest House was our comfortable home for 5 days. Easy to find and walkable from 2 train stations. Centrally-located, yet feels like it has given us tranquility after days of hectic activities. The cat is sensationally the cutesy star, visitors want to pat it when they see it. Hotel staff are nice and respectful. We had to leave a day early to stay with a friend, and staff were nice enough to open the breakfast area earlier. The room is bigger than expected, and provided us with a big bed for restful sleep. The iron just outside our room was convenient, and a ref inside our room made our drinks cold. We definitely will recommend this for travelers who are not too picky, but can use a welcoming place.

Good price for borderline adequate accommodations

The B-1 was just fine. Lots of exciting things to see all around it. It's a place to lay your head. The staff was pleasant and they had a little friendly cat. The Wi-Fi was acceptable. All in all it wasn't adequate experience at a very good price
