The place was comfortable, clean and everything looked very new. The host was super nice and we had no issues with our stay. Just keep in mind it is in a hilly area and the subway station is a 10min walk, but the bus stop is less than 2min away, there are good restaurants nearby and even a big grocery shop.

The hotel host was great at communicating with us on checking in and out. Location was great as we needed to be closer to Korea University and this place was only 2 stops away or quick uber ride. And it close to subway station that took us to all the touristy spots that we wanted to visit. Room was great and we would definitely stay here again.

This was a great place to stay for our first time visiting Seoul. The host Pony was very responsive and communicated with us through WhatsApp. They were able to help us in booking a pick up from the airport, which was well worth it as this was our first time visiting the city. The apartment was well furnished and had all the amenities we needed over the week that we stayed. A case of water was provided each time that the apartment was cleaned and having a washer was a major plus. The apartment is next to a supermarket and many restaurants across the street. Line 1 and 2 of the metro are accessible with a 10 to 15 minute walk. My family and I really enjoyed our time and would definitely stay here again.

We were so impressed with the hospitality. The property is in a great location near a huge stretch of restaurants and a pharmacy. The subway is a 13 minute walk and taxi is easily accessible. When we had a question they responded immediately with the support we needed. Highly recommend.

We are a couple from Canada and stayed at the Residence Unicorn in mid-March 2026. The unit is as described and everything works. (This is not a 5-star hotel, but suited us perfectly.) We appreciated the kitchenette and also the washing machine. It is an excellent location - close to subway/buses, emart next door, and many other useful shops. The host had great communication prior to and upon our arrival, was accommodating, and was a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended for the host, location and amenities. Thank you!

Clean spacious room and super easy to check in and out. Host was responsive. It was nice to have full size washer and good size fridge. The bathroom needs update. The shower hose was attached to the sink and bathroom floor remains wet after showers.

Our stay at unicorn was great. Pony was so helpful and kind and gave us a lot of advice about how to check in, how to use the facilities and about local cuisines to try. It’s a very short walk from the train station so easy to get around, and the nearby creek is a beautiful walk/run. The room was very clean. The milk tea dessert bar downstairs from the property is also fantastic and I recommend you try the dacquoise.

Pony, kindly let ne checked in early, truly appreciate. Residence Unicorn was like a home away from home, it had all that I need. Fresh towels n huge bottled water were all ready when i checked in. I enjoyed the privacy it provided, no need for key cards. The area was very interesting with a mix of young n old n a lovely stream nearby. Also, plenty of cafes, restaurants n a hypermart. Thanks Pony for making my stay enjoyable 😘

Absolutely perfect stay for me! I do not like soft beds, this hotel has the best bed quality for my needs . The breakfast buffet was EXCELLENT! Their soy milk was delicious and made in the same exact style that I used to have in my childhood. They also serve FRESHLY squeezed (mandarin) orange juice and watermelon juice. GREAT location to Taoyuan High Rail station. I walked there at the start of my day to Taipei and if at the end of my day i got too tired, cab AND Uber are plenty. I will absolutely come back and stay here again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Comfortable and convenient.

Comfortable 2 week stay in Seoul, convenient access to Emart - a complete korean supermarket where you will find everything that you might need. Access to several metro stations are all about 15 min walk from the hotel. The room had a kitchenette, breakfast table, washer (no dryer), room fan, heating and air con. Our room did not have a separate shower, but a bathroom sink/manual showerhead combo. Dishes, utensils, cookingware, hairdryer, shampoo/cond, disposable slippers and bottled drinking water provided. Room was not luxurious but clean, well sized and comfortable. A lot of nice restaurants and bakeries in the area. Great communication with host. Got instructions to self check-in about 48 hrs before. The building has an elevator.

Une nouvelle expérience vers Séoul, mais cette fois dans un logement inoubliable ! ❤️ Le logement est vraiment très bien situé. Vous avez tout à portée de main et à toutes heures ! Le service nettoyage est régulier et est fait avec sérieux et grand soin. Quant à Pony, une hôte très attentive à ses locataires, très gentille et très serviable. Je vous encourage à vous poser dans ce petit nid douillet, vous ne serez vraiment pas déçu(e). Je pense déjà à mon 3ème retour à Séoul, et il ne fait nul doute que je redéposerai mes bagages à Unicorn.

環境好，近機場巴士和地鐵站

附近環境很不錯，機場巴士可以到旅宿附近的地鐵站，走路15分鐘可以抵達民宿。附近有很多好吃的餐廳和咖啡店。房間是獨立的套房，衛浴沒有乾濕分離，但是有小廚房，可以簡易的料理，有微波爐和小冰箱，房間內有洗衣機可以洗衣服，並提供曬衣架可以晾曬洗好的衣服和毛巾。住一個禮拜，整天環境很安靜，覺得隔音很不錯。
