Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Location is good, very near the station. The room have no AC, lucky the stuff kind enough to lend me a fan for my staying. The wall make from wood board, so you can hear people chating and watching tv from other side. So sometime I woke up in the middle of night, because of the noise. The big problem is not the noise, is the bed bugs or something. The 1st two night wasnt that bad, because I didnt get biting much, so i didnt notice. Only the thrid night I start feeling my body is very itchy. So I start check my body, and I saw alot of bites on my body. That night I didnt really get much sleep. Lucky I only there for 4 days, so just try to get few hours sleep on my last day and catch my early flight next day. If you guys dont mind the bed bugs bites, Don Quixote Stay is good. But for me I will not come back to Don Quixote Stay again.

Private wet bathroom :)
Overall a good place to stay for the night. Owners are friendly and helpful. Bed is comfy. Private wet bathroom in the room is the best part. Some guests can be heard talking in the hallways late at night. No windows to circulate fresh air. Floors need to be swept and/or mopped to remove dust and stray hairs. Breakfast is basic. Towels are small. Corner store and public trans very close. I would stay here again.

Comfortable but odd location
I liked that all the rooms have their own bathroom and, I think, wifi. Breakfast was provided. Also it was very clean and nicely decorated. The owners are very kind and helpful as well. The location isn't super convenient. It's just across from a metro station, but that particular line has some long waiting times. It's helpful to look up its times online. Bus 143 goes north to insadong, but there's about a 15 min. walk to the station. There are closer buses, but I only used the 405 to go south, which was alright. But another plus is that you can walk to the lovely Han River.

Worst Hotel. Avoid!
This is by far the worst hotel we have ever stayed in during 25 years of personal and business travel throughout the world. We left after 3 nights and moved to proper hotel. Rooms are clean, but absolutely minuscule. 'Breakfast' is defrosted bread that you can toast, and sometimes includes filter coffee. Wash your dishes afterwards. The 'kitchen' is on the roof terrace, only open 7-10am, so it is useless if you want to make a cup of tea at another time or you have an early morning appointment. Hotel is on 4th floor. Stairs are disgustingly dirty. Floor 1 is restaurant. Floor 2 and 3 have toilets (for restaurant...? They are always open to public...) Staff at courier company across the street start early and are very noisy. Hostels have much bigger, better accommodation and facilities. They are also lively and full of interesting people. Don Quixote is like a mausoleum.

Small price for a smaller room
Honestly didn't expect much for the amount paid and nothing exceeded my expectations. If you want a semi-clean, extremely small room for a night then this could be acceptable to some, but not all. I only needed one night thankfully and I wouldn't recommend more than that.

A good hostel
i feel good to stay there at this price. The room is clean n staff is helpful. The environment is quite n peaceful n near subway station. Also the room tempature is warm when outdoor is cold. The only defect is no restaurant there and we can only buy food fm 7/11. However, i will stay in Quixote if i wanna save money. it is worth to stay there at this price.

NOT FOR THE DISABLED
I requested details about the disabled room at this stay but none were forthcoming from yourselves.....The fact that this is a 4th floor walk up should have been noted in your details...very bad information provided by you. The Stay itself is great 4.5 out of 5. clean rooms, nice management, easy use extras...kitchen to use...coffee always available gratis....as too eggs and other stuff for breakfast. washing facilities. but big problem for me had to walk 4 flights of steps which were not detailed in breakdown of location. Near to Seobinggo train station and near airport bus stop too. great place

Very clean Great staff Near Yongsan base Near Iteawon Make your own breakfast on the roof The room was uncomfortably warm. The thermostat should have been turned down to a lower temperature. An air filter would help with the air pollution.

I want to keep this place a secret
I feel very conflicted about this review. The good part of me wants to offer the good review this place deserves. Yet, my more selfish side wants to keep this place a secret. It is my inexpensive, reliable, go to place when I hang out in Seoul every weekend.

Well worth the cost in my opinion. I found the location very convenient, as it was close by an airport limousine stop and right across the street from Seobinggo station. It was very easy to get to any of the tourist spots via subway from Don Quixote Stay. The rooms are small but have everything one would need.

Generally good
This guesthouse lived up to my expectation, I was needing a private and quiet,yet conducive place to work on my task, and this guesthouse has all the right qualities. Recommend highly for business-related travellers who needs cheap alternatives. Near to Turkey embassy in Seoul. Surprisingly, I was told by owner that they operated this guesthouse for only 6 months. However, their hospitality are superb. They are very respectful. Being a new guesthouse, it is clean and tidy. Cleaning takes place daily. It is not far away from the Han River park, where I took a few evening walk before dinner. Neighbourhood is quiet and there are not much eateries and no pubs (conducive environment for me during my stay). For those who are not okay with stairs, then please look for other guesthouse as this guesthouse is situated on the 4th level. There is a lift, but not sure if it can take human (luggages are definitely okay) Near to Seobinggo Metro too, thus travelling to different part of Seoul is rather convenient in my view

Neat little place near Yongson base.
The room was clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. I love the rooftop for breakfast. The only thing I would change is to put curtains over the little window that overlooks a hall that's always lit. I have to cover it with blankets to go to sleep.

Great stay!
I stayed for 2 nights. Check in was a breeze, the room was super clean and comfy. I'm not sure why this place is rated as a 2 star, it should be a 3 or above. The staff are phenomenal, they give you a tour of the rooftop and explain about breakfast etc. They also will answers any questions you may have of the area. This place is right across the street from a subway stop and very near itaewon. The view from the rooftop is beautiful at night. Namsan tower and the city view is breath taking. I would recommend this place to anyone. The only down side I have would be that this place is located on the 4th floor of a building...with no elevator so if you have heavy luggage.....I don't know what to tell you. All in all......Great place and I'll be booking again!!

Had an amazing night stay here
I had a great time at this hotel or guest house. Whatever it was. You basically get a tiny one room to sleep in. It has only a single bed, a desk with TV and a tiny private bathroom. What I liked is the fact that for this price, I can stay in a room alone and have a private bathroom. Regardless of how small it was, it was perfect for one person to stay for a short time. Each room has their own router for wifi. There room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Again the room was small but I am claustrophobic and I loved the room. The day when I stayed there, I was quite busy and booked it around 7pm and arrived there around 10:30pm. The area felt a little less comfortable mostly because it was so late so it was very dark because it was more of a residential area but it was just a few minutes from Seobingo station maybe even less than that. I got up there and there were signs in English and Korean. My room has a post-it note with my name on it so I went in and the owner came down to check if if everything in the room was okay and then he took me to the rooftop garden to show me everything and we had a conversation up there. His English isn't perfect of course but he is quite good at it. I highly recommend this place.
