6.0 Overall it’s a good place. Very convenient to stores and subway - Jojeanne 24-10-2024

Positive points: I like it but too small for three people

Negative points: Too small for three family

9.0 Perfect location, well equiped and well looked after - Olga 15-08-2024

Positive points: It's a very cozy small studio in an excellent location. The bus from the airport is close, metro is close, you'll be close to major attractions, several metro lines, and bus routes. Honestly, the location couldn't be more perfect, the locals were very impressed when I mentioned the choice of the area. The building is easy to access and has elevator. rnThe studio is well equipped and well maintained. Asian size (set your expectations right!) but actually quite nice and airy. Honestly I expected a lot less. it had style, everything was newish and well taken care of, there was even a drier in addition to the washing machine. They had toiletries, shampoos, and even some welcome coffee and tea bags. Very nice service. rnThe manager is very friendly and attentive, easy to communicate with. They have several apartments in the same building so they are often around.

Negative points: In the specific apartment I was using the was a tiny problem with the shower in that the water pressure made it rotate and it was hard to direct the water to a convenient place unless you were holding the shower hand in your own hand - not my ideal set up for a shower. They need a different type of holder for the shower head. We had a conversation about, and given how attentive they were, they probably have already fixed it. Honestly, this is the only reason I'm not giving a 10 because otherwise I loved my stay.rnAlso, if you have not used a digital lock before ask for a demonstration of how to activate it. I freaked out when I couldn't get it started coming back late at night.

8.0 Very good - Malak 03-07-2024

Positive points: The place was very comfortable and had everything we needed. However, the bathroom was quite small and it was a bit of a hassle to take a shower. The location was convenient with a train station just few minutes away and a lovely take-away coffee just downstairs.

Negative points: Bathroom is quite small

9.0 Great value for a great stay! - Erica 11-04-2024

Positive points: Great host, good location, great value, comfortable beds, appeared as advertised. Very convenient having the laundry and kitchenette in room.

Negative points: The space, particularly the bathroom, was pretty small, but still one of the larger spaces we stayed in Korea and Japan. Just need to adjust expectations of room size coming from the USA.

9.0 Excellent - OUTGEN 05-02-2024

Positive points: Cozy, clean, a lot of stuff inside like the kitchen.

Negative points: Temperature in bathroom. But it was not really bad. The water pressure was strong and water was hot.

10.0 Exceptional - Tynule 15-01-2024

Positive points: Very homey and cozy apartment. The owner was really nice and helpful! Sweet Stay is very well located, close to subway and in calm neighborhood. We loved our stay here and we especially loved beds and comfy, thick blankets which were really cuddly!

Negative points: Nothing

9.0 thank you owner for giving us in time assistance. We had a pleasant stay! - jessica 24-08-2023

Positive points: Good location, clean room and friendly owner.nProperty has a lift so it's convenient for guest with luggage too. Walk 5 minutes to Dongdaemun history and culture park MRT exit 5, down stairs can find coffee shop and convenient store. It's safe as at night still lots of lights.nnThe host is friendly and giving in time help whenever we have question with the room or even with the travel spot!

Negative points: bathroom is pretty small, most of the things has to put outside the room. Room with Electronic lock will make us worry if someone will easily break into the room.

10.0 Cozy, comfy stay at Sweet Stay 😃 - SOUCAT 27-04-2023

Positive points: Subway is right at the corner, and the Airport bus shuttle stop is right outside the entrance door. Such access to public transportation made our trip into Seoul so easy.rnrnThere are also many amazing Jjigae and K fried Chicken places all around the area. And best, there is an amazing 24h spa around the corner!!

Negative points: All was good, there isn’t a thing we didn’t like.

10.0 Nơi đẹp - Aziz 28-09-2024

Review: Bố mẹ tôi đã ở đó trong một tuần. nƯu điểm: chủ nhà (Joe hoặc Joy) rất hiếu khách, lịch sự và hữu ích! Vị trí cho những người từ Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Mông Cổ và các nước SNG khác rất tuyệt, đây là khu vực nói tiếng Nga. Nhà ga tàu điện ngầm rất gần với nơi ở.

6.0 the toilet was just that small, I guess nothing more could possibly be done as it is limited by size - Gerard 11-04-2023

Positive points: The host was proactive. She forwarded all necessary info timely.

Negative points: toilet and shower

10.0 Amazing stay! - Ria 16-03-2023

Positive points: Joy was an amazing host! We had questions about the front door, and she personally went to the place to explain and demonstrate how it was properly used to us. The latch bolt for the toilet's door gets stuck, but the door closes completely anyway even if it was like that.rnrnThe building has an elevator, and the room has washing machine (+ drying rack), fridge, hair dryer, TV, stove, microwave, wi-fi, AC (with heater), and electric kettle. Utensils, pans, toiletries, and soap (for utensils, hands, and laundry) were all complete as well during our stay.rnrnThe closest station to the accommodation is Dongdaemun History & Culture Park (Exit 5). Be informed though that this exit only has stairs, so if you have heavy luggages, you may use Exit 4 at the other side of the road.rnrnAlso, it would be nice to have more plastic for the general waste. :) Still, the overall stay was amazing. Thanks, Joy!

10.0 Tôi hoàn toàn yêu thích nơi này và người quản lý của nó. - nuangnoi 02-09-2023

Review: Nơi này cảm giác như một ngôi nhà đối với chúng tôi. Đây là nơi đầu tiên chúng tôi ở trong chuyến đi kéo dài gần ba tuần ở Hàn Quốc. Vị trí rất thuận tiện - trạm xe buýt sân bay (xe buýt số 6001, trạm - Toegyero 6 ga), chỉ cách ba phút đi bộ, và năm phút đi bộ đến ga tàu điện ngầm (Ga Lịch sử và Văn hóa Dongdaemun - lối ra 5). Gần chợ Dongdaemun (lối ra 14 của cùng một ga tàu điện ngầm) là trung tâm mua sắm của chúng tôi, những nhà hàng có mái tent màu cam và các nhà hàng truyền thống cổ điển và hợp thời trang. Tất nhiên, cửa hàng tiện lợi thì có mặt ở khắp nơi xung quanh, bao gồm cả những cửa hàng trong tàu điện ngầm. Điều tuyệt nhất là Joy, người quản lý, giờ đây là bạn của chúng tôi (dù cô ấy có muốn hay không) - rất hào phóng và hỗ trợ. Yêu bạn, Joy!
