My recent stay at Moon Sun Guesthouse was a mixed bag. While the location is fantastic and just a short walk from Myeongdong and the subway, there were several challenges that detracted from my experience, especially with the service and amenities offered.

Rooms

6.0

The room I stayed in was clean and homey, featuring a unique glass-partitioned bathroom that surpasses what I expected from a budget place. However, I was only provided one hard pillow and a small hand towel, which made my stay less comfortable than I hoped.

Service

5.0

Unfortunately, the service left much to be desired. The manager was not welcoming, and when I encountered an issue with breakfast not being available as promised, the response was quite dismissive and unhelpful. It felt confusing and rude, especially since the communication was poor.

Location

8.0

The location is definitely a highlight—just minutes from Myeongdong station and the shopping district. It's ideal for exploring, though I found toting my luggage up the hill to the guesthouse a bit daunting.

Dining

5.0

Dining options are limited, with no breakfast provided as stated. I had to look elsewhere for meals, which was a disappointment. A kitchenette is available during specific hours, but I would have preferred more flexible dining options.

Facilities

5.0

The guesthouse has some nice facilities like a cozy common area for relaxing and a kitchen, but having no elevator and limited towels was quite inconvenient.

I had a decent stay at Moon Sun Guesthouse, with a great location near Myeongdong and the subway, but it wasn't without its frustrations. The walk uphill with my luggage was a tough start, and I had some issues with service, especially regarding breakfast promises. Overall, I enjoyed my time, but some aspects like comfort and assistance need improvement.

While the facility is nice and has some great amenities, the service wasn't very welcoming. I ran into issues with the manager regarding breakfast not being provided as promised, and communication could be more friendly.

The guesthouse is perfectly located near the bustling Myeongdong shopping area and is close to a subway station, making exploration super easy. Just note that the walk back up after a long day can be a bit of a climb.

There’s no breakfast offered at the guesthouse, but plenty of restaurants and coffee shops in the area. I had to find alternatives for my daughter's meals, which added some inconvenience.
