Middle of Hongdae
Great comfy and clean stay, even though in the middle of Hongdae. It was great and easy access to the Hongdae area. I would definitely stay again

We had a pleasant stay at the guesthouse. It was clean and has basic provisions as described. The insulation of the house was excellent such that we feel warm despite the cold outside. Easy access into guesthouse and room and also convenience to subway makes it worthwhile staying here. Owner and family members all rallied together to help us contact the necessary authorities when our luggage was delayed and helpled to receive our luggage at odd hours in the early mornjng. A few steps outside the accomodation was a hive of shopping streets, all within walking distance, including supermarkets. I would stay at Daol guesthouse again if I were to visit Korea and would recommend it to anyone who wants a convenient place to stay when in Seoul. Pl note that no breakfast is provided and the kitchen and all the electrical appliances in it are not accessible for the time being due to Covid. This was not informed on booking sites.

홍대 맞은편, 경의선숲길에 아주 가까운 장소 하지만, 주변은 조용한 편이였습니다. 인근에 다양한 맛집들이 있었습니다. 아주 청결한 상태의 베드와 욕실을 사용할 수 있었습니다. 전반적으로 매우 좋은 숙소였으며, 다음에 또 이용할 용의가 있습니다. 추천하고 싶습니다.

The location is perfect, very close to the subway. The guesthouse and the room are well maintained and clean. The host family is very nice and they made us like home. It has private bathroom and they provide everything you need. Highly recommend this place and will book again when I go to Seoul in the future :)

A lovely guest house run by a lovely family
I do not usually write reviews but just had to share my sincere recommendation of Daol Guest House. Our one-night stay was excellent for many reasons: the cleanliness, great location, free breakfast (the kimchi fried rice was delicious!), security. But the family running it made our stay truly exceptional. They are genuinely warm, kind people who made our brief stay feel as comfortable and cozy as being at home. I am only sorry that our time with them was so brief, and I really look forward to staying here again in the future!

They were all very nice. It is a family owned guest house/hotel. We got to Seoul very late due to our plane delayed, the owner waited for us past midnight to greet us and give us the key. She gave us which train to take and very useful info. This property is very well located, a minute or two walking distance to the subway where even you can go to the airport. I strongly suggested this property.

DAOL Guest House is amazing! The location is incredible - close to the Hongik University metro station and walking distance to amazing restaurants and parks - literally everything is outside of your door! The room was so cozy and cute - great shower, very clean. My hosts were also amazing - don't skip the breakfast! I loved my stay - it made my time in Seoul so special. I can't recommend DAOL guest house enough!

Location is very convenient, metro station is just 2 mins walking distance, a lot of restaurant, store, bar/pub nearby, however the guest house is also quiet, clean and comfortable. The house owner is really nice, willing to talk and share story. breakfast is simple but really fresh and healthy. i love the breakfast. Due to my schedule, I had chance to stay in single room, double room and family room, all of them was really clean and comfortable. Next time, I definitely want to stay at this house while in Seoul. and I highly recommend this guest house to anyone, no matter you are single, couple, friends or family.

駅から近く便利です。部屋も清潔でした。でも朝食が無いことやタオルの交換が無いことは明記してほしかったです。タオルは部屋の外にメモ付で置いて交換してもらいましたが、バスタオルのみで小さいタオルはもらえませんでした。朝食を期待していましたが何も置いてありませんでした。チェックインからチェックアウトまでホテルの人には一度も会わず。ベッドも固めで狭かったです。料金的にはこんなものかもしれませんね。
