The localization is very good and the staff is awesome. If I return to Seoul I would stay there one more time! There is no reason to try to find another place.

The location is perfect. Close to several metro stations, awesome restaurants, cool bars/clubs and tons of boutique shops. The owner, Ed, is very helpful and understanding and does everything he can to make your stay as comfortable and convenient as possible.

This place was great, albeit I did have the whole guesthouse to myself for 90% of my stay so that was an interesting experience. When I first got there, Ed was waiting and then we introduced ourselves and he instantly told me about S. Korea, activities to do, touristy spots, popular spots, food spots, clubs, etc... he even suggest me to download some very useful apps all which helped me a lot during my stay. He even went out and ate dinner with me one night. He really made me feel at home!

Ed, please update the directions to the hostels and maybe include and small map in the booking email would be helpful.

I stayed at Ed House for 9 days over the new year. It's in a great location with lots of bars and clubs nearby. I had originally made a mistake and said I'd be getting in at 5:00 AM instead of 5:00 PM and Ed stayed the whole day at the hostel waiting for me to come! He is a great guy and took me to a couple places to eat throughout the week. He has a lot of helpful information on things to do while you are in Seoul. Overall a great place to stay and I will go there again next time I'm there

Ed was quite welcoming and made sure we felt right at home at the hostel. Location was perfect for going out partying in one of the best areas in Seoul. Tons of great places to eat and the owner made sure to show us a few great restaurants. Lockers are available without needing to bring your own lock. Bed was nice and warm even in the winter and the floors were heated. Would definitely stay here again.

The location is excellent, walking distance to all the restaurant, bars and clubs. Nothing much to complain about, maybe the music from the club which is right next to the hostel at night, and there is only 2 toilets shared by everybody. You may have to queue up a bit if you wanna take a shower in the morning. But it's a good place to stay and worth the price, and the hosts are very friendly

Ed greeted us at the door personally and was very friendly and helpful, was a good introductory tour guide to Seoul. Would definitely recommend to new travellers to Seoul. Bedrooms were spacious and clean. Travelled during off peak so not too many travellers at the time.
