Super convenient to have a small kitchenette+washer/dryer. Cute and clean design, however, the cloth hanger was terribly flimsy. Great Nevertheless, varieties of eateries including local and gourmet foods plus hidden alley shops were charming!

Great stay for a solo week in Seoul! Located on a quiet street, with lots of dining options close by. Walkable to many iconic locations such as Insa-dong Culture Street, Changgyeonggung Palace, and Hanok Villages. Easy self check-in process with a code to enter, which was very convenient.

Stayed here for 4 nights, 5 days. Really enjoyed it. Loved that it has a washer/dryer which we needed since this was the last leg of our South Korea trip. Loved that there is a bidet and luggage storage. Note that the room doesn’t get cleaned by staff during your stay but it’s fine with me.

Great space to spend longer stays at!

My partner and I stayed in Urbanstay Boutique Ikseon during our week trip in Seoul. It's a stone's throw away from Ikseon-dong and just a quick walk to several different stations (Euljiro-3-ga and Anguk). The room was very warm and cozy. Bed was in between firm and soft, but it was very spacious. It was very helpful to have a washer/dryer the entire time since we were on a two week trip away from home. Communication with the people at Urbanstay was very easy as well. However, if you're looking to have a place to be cleaned everyday, this is not the place for you. (We were okay to not have this place everyday — made us feel more at home).

The hotel was excellent. The room was exactly what I needed for a multi-night stay. The area around hotel is amazing, and ideal for stepping out anywhere in Seoul. The walls are a bit thin, but overall, I loved this place and will stay again.
