“Uwa Guesthouse, a cozy home-away-from-home in Seoul, is more than just its Hongdae address; it's the feeling of slipping into a welcoming space after a day navigating the city. The communal kitchen buzzes with low conversation, and while some may find the shared spaces a touch cluttered, there's a lived-in charm that fosters connection. Its affordability, especially for solo travelers wanting to be near Hongik University Station, makes it a practical choice without sacrificing a sense of community.”
