I had a decent stay at Seoul Station R Guesthouse. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from Seoul Station, but the uphill trek can be tiring, especially with luggage. My room was spacious for two people, which was a plus, but I did notice some downsides, like the thin walls and a small bathroom that made it tricky to maneuver. Overall, it’s fine for a short transit stay, but not ideal for a long visit.
