“We have absolutely loved the stay here! The hosts are wonderful! Easy to work with, help with whatever's needed, available. The apartment is amazing! Well stocked and equipped with anything you'd want! 2 bedrooms and a computer/game/office room. 2 large TV's, great wifi, etc. A SUPER cool apartment! We really liked it!! The location is south of the river, 5 minute walk to a Sangdo station, about 45mins on a subway to the center of the city. There is a local bus stop right there, but we did not try to use it. A parking spot is in a garage and fits whatever size car. Very convenient. There are a couple of parks nearby where you can walk/do some outdoor exercises too. The neighborhood is clean, safe, quite, residential - perfect for a longer stay with a family Highly recommended!”

“The host was so so so so kind and always very quick to reply & very helpful! They provided a lot of things one might need, so it was very convenient. The neighbourhood had also everything you'd need! The only downside for me was that the room felt quite basement-like sometimes in terms of air quality, which made it a bit less comfortable, because I am a bit sensitive with these things. If that's not an issue for you, it's a solid option for the price :) I had a very pleasant long term stay, so I recommend!~☆”

LiveAnywhere is Korea's favorite short-term and vacation rental platform, built for extended stays of one week to six months. From trendy studios in Seoul to relaxing beach houses in Jeju, every home comes fully furnished and can be booked in minutes through the LiveAnywhere app.
It works much like Airbnb, but with a structure designed for longer visits: competitive weekly and monthly rates instead of nightly pricing, no repeated cleaning fees, and utilities included in your payment. That's why an extended stay in Korea through LiveAnywhere often costs noticeably less than booking the same period on a nightly platform.
Some listings include a small security deposit, far smaller than the large lump-sum deposits required by traditional Korean leases. Your deposit is held securely in escrow by LiveAnywhere, not by the host. After checkout, the host checks the property, and once they confirm there are no issues, your deposit is refunded within a maximum of 5 business days.
Many students book with LiveAnywhere after missing out on a dorm spot, or to skip dorm rules like curfews and shared rooms. You get a private, fully furnished place near campus with your own kitchen and bathroom, and you choose your own move-in and move-out dates instead of following the dorm calendar.
Yes, and booking early is recommended since listings near campus fill up before each semester starts. You can complete the entire booking online from abroad with an international credit card.
