Comfort first at Namsan Gil guest house

It's been months since I came back from my Holiday in Korea and I haven't really touched on much about my trip as I'm rather busy with work and my little devil. So now I finally picked up my courage to start on some post about my trip. I'm going to start off with my accommodation.

I was so excited to introduce to you Namsan Gil Guesthouse that I swear I'm going to write about them the moment I step into their place. It's not those luxury 5star hotel which you will be expecting I warn you first but it will really pass if you are looking for an affordable and comfortable place.
I mean when you go for travel in a shopping heaven places like Korea are you going to be wasting your time sleeping away in a hotel room? Obviously not right?

Well I'm glad I found my trust able place! Namsan Gil is a newly opened guesthouse by 2 young bosses Gil and Bosco. I was looking for an affordable place to stay as I don't want to spent too much on accommodation. Believed me or not, I actually found them at only $38/night on airbnb!!! What's more is that it's located super near to Myeong Dong area.Incredible right? I to scroll through and look at the image it's seems really cosy so I proceeded to book. Bosco immediately accept my booking and it's so flexible that he actually let me make changes to my booking without penalty. The only cons I thought that I met is the hill way up with my heavy luggage. It's quite easy to find as they have detailed direction to their house on airbnb but for some of your convenience, I shall guide you through the way via images below

I took bus 6015 from Incheon airport 12A bus stops and get off at Sejong Hotel which is the final destination. (OMG the bus ride took me 2.5hrs as it was peak hr) I would suggest you to take subway.
If you are taking subway, you can alight at Seoul Station and change to the line to Myeongdong station.
- Alight at Myeongdong station exit 8
- Cross the traffic light where you can see Pacific hotel opposite.





















- Continue to walk straight pass Pacific hotel



















- You will pass by a convenience store on your right up ahead.

























- Continue to walk straight and you will see this lovely wall painting! ( Perfect for an OOTD ;p )















- Continue to walk up the hill~~ Fighting! You know you can do it. Namsn Gil is just up infront walk more!!



  

There you go. This is the lovely doorstep of Namsan Gil

Once you are at the door steps press the bell.
The lovely decorated recept / dining area. They even have mini kitchen for you to do some light cooking. Also a fridge for you to store your food.
The small cosy room. It's not too cramp as I have got 2 luggage and I'm still able to walk around freely after opening both of my luggage.



Some of the things they provide in the room. For the multi plug is only available upon request. I went during Dec which is winter season so the room are also in a warm temperature due to their insulated flooring.

Don't have to worry that you brought not enough clothing as they provide washing machine for you to wash your laundry.



That's all for my review on Namsan Gil Guest house. I'm rating 5 out of  5.
Bosco know how to speaks English, do feel free to contact him if you have further enquires.

    1. Same.. I find that 5 star hotel is just a waste of money if we are going to stay out all day.
