I love to stay here in the guest house, the owner OG is a very kind person. The work here is easier and calm. If you looking for a place cossy and in the center of Seoul, this place is perfect, you can go to everywhere and OG can help you with orientation about emblematic places. Thank you OG for everything 🙏🏻

It was my first volunteering experience and I loved it! OG was really helpful and is a very kind person. I felt at home in the hostel and the work is manageable & easy to do. Thank you so so much for the amazing time in Seoul, I learned a lot about the Korean culture! :)

This was my first worldpackers experience and I couldn't have been more lucky. OG is kind, caring, and overall a great person. No matter what I needed, he was there for me and would help me out. I felt comfortable from the very first minute. The hostel is really nice and has everything you need, and I especially liked the curtains in front of every bed for privacy. The work was manageable, and OG teaches you with a lot of patience and helps out when needed. I had a great time at Jongno Stay and would definitely recommend it:).

Very sociable and lovely lady Mayra. She is bringing happiness and smile. You can not understand what I mean but Mayra makes people get smile, too. I love her smile and I learn from her how to. I hope to meet her again. Lovely Mayra, be happy! See you later!

My experience working at this guesthouse was a very positive one, straight away I felt welcomed and the accommodation was very clean and organised. The work there is quite easy, after OG shows you what to do, you can go at your own pace and make your own routine with the cleaning. Any questions that I had were quickly answered by OG, he's always fast and happy to help whether that's with the cleaning work or with guests that come to you with questions and you are unsure about the answer. Although I worked by myself for the majority of my stay, I felt welcomed and comfortable overall!

Sorry for late comment. Saffron is a lovely and perfect person. Saff and I didn't go out together too much but she had her own schedule. I respect her style and I didn't want to interrupt her time. Anyway saff is very good person and I want to meet her again. She must be good person anywhere. Saff is the best!
