I had a lovely stay at Icos Guesthouse. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from the subway and near a 24-hour restaurant for late-night beef bone soup. The traditional hanok style adds a unique charm, although the shared bathrooms can be a bit inconvenient during winter. Overall, it was a great experience, but having someone at the reception would improve the experience further.

The facilities were simple yet clean, and the hot water was always available. However, the shared bathrooms required walking through a communal area, which might be difficult during colder weather.

I had a cozy stay at the iCOS Guesthouse, especially loved the warm atmosphere and the friendly staff. The location was super convenient, just a short walk to the subway, but the bathroom situation was a bit chilly. Overall, it was a unique cultural experience, though I struggled with the sound insulation and the shared amenities.

I stayed in a single room with a traditional futon mattress, and while it was warm thanks to the ondol heating, the thin mattress made it hard to get a good night's sleep. The lack of soundproofing was also bothersome at times.

The shared bathroom was spacious, but getting to it during cold nights was a bit of a hassle since it was chilly outside. It could use some coziness.

The location was excellent, just a short walk from Sinchon station, which made getting around really convenient. However, dealing with a shared bathroom during the cold winter nights was a bit of a challenge. and the noise could be disruptive at times.

I stayed in a double room with a traditional futon mattress. The space was clean and cozy, offering great privacy as I didn't have a roommate during my visit. The ondol heating system kept the room warm, and the thick blankets were a nice touch during the chilly spring nights.

My stay at ICOS Guesthouse was a mixed experience. The warmth from the traditional heated floors was nice, but the mattress was too thin, making sleep difficult. YoungAe, the manager, was incredibly welcoming, coming to my rescue when I got lost, and the guesthouse had a charming atmosphere. However, the thin walls and cold bathroom made me long for the comfort of my previous stay elsewhere.
