Home sweet home
Close to Mangwon subway station and easy to go to Hongdae (just 3600₩ By taxi) nice place for people who hate busy location. Nice manager. Not many rooms so you can feel like home. I'll be back for sure. I recommended to used airport limousine bue No. 6002 and stop at Hapjeing station and take taxi to Guest House.

4/10 Fair

I've stayed in better SE Asian hostels than this.
Positives: The owner was polite, and this guesthouse is a short hop from Itaewon. They are also dog-friendly. Negatives: The owner wasn't there to check us in, which wouldn't be an issue except that despite the hostel listing free parking we had to illegally park in an apartment's lot across the street until he could come meet us. When we finally got to our room, there was a cooking class being held in the common area, which we weren't told about. So instead of being able to relax after a hard day's travel, we got to lie there listening to a loud Korean TV show and *very* loud Korean conversation. The bedroom's walls are paper-thin; be prepared to hear every footstep. The bed itself is rock-hard, as are the pillows. Fortunately everything was clean. The website didn't list that the bathroom would be shared, which wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't literally just a toilet and a shower nozzle attached to the sink. If anyone else in the building uses a faucet while you're showering, your water pressure and temperature drop to zero. What would have been an enjoyable ten-minute showered turned into a hour-long battle of wills. The ceiling in the bathroom is moldy as well. TL;DR I've backpacked through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Philippines. Somehow, every hostel I've stayed at along the way has been better than this one. However, the owner is polite and the hostel is pet-friendly and close to Itaewon.

Home stay
As the name implies, the Apple Tree Guest House, is a big, comfy, home style house that accommodates their guests into their rooms. Far from being a hotel, it serves you with a warm welcome, a home felling and cool atmosphere. The rooms are nice and clean, showers could be improved, kitchen and living rooms are spacious and convenient. We had a great stay and would recommend it to anyone looking to get away from the crowds in a chilling environment.

6/10 Good

Adequate, but would not revisit
Would not recommend for young females who are traveling alone for the first time, the living space is rather small and as a result, shared spaces are cramped. I found privacy to be lacking. In addition, people who are afraid of dogs should know that is one.

Safe location near a subway stop.
A wonderful visit. Shawn's place made us feel like we were at home. The guesthouse was clean and he provided toast for breakfast. Theres an on-site laundry facility and two restrooms. Whenever we had questions or simply needed him to help us order food, he met our expectations! Thank you Shawn.

room clean and nice
I stayed for 5 days 4 nights in the Apple Tree Guest House with my bf and other couple. The manager, Shawn is really kind and helpful. We felt at home during these few days.The room was clean and nice. the double room is actually got other single bed, so can fix three person. but the room space is not enough to put if u have big luaggage. the small problem is shared bathroom. not very convenient for me cause you have to change cloth inside the toilet. location: is nearby mangwon station! please remember to print out the home address with Korea words, easy to show the taxi driver if he dont know how to go.

Cosy and warm guesthouse feels like home
Apple tree guesthouse is a very homely place to stay, so cosy and comfortable even if its not brand new or high design. With Shawns care it feels like staying at a friends place. He provides whatever info or help needed. We very much enjoyed our 4 day stay and would recommend anyone that's going to Seoul to stay here! Area is calm and has some great budget places to eat.

Worth the price
As we only stay for one night for the transfer, it is worth the price. Just that the water heater at the show room was a bit "out-of-control" as it is either super cold and super hot.
