Picture looks like it was taken several years ago there was junk in the courtyard, the host was very rude because our flight arrived late and and difficulty locking the door . Our bathroom was full of ants and the room was much smaller than shown on the pictures. Also picture shows fit on mattresses but we only received blankets

Overall our stay here was nice. The host are nice and very welcoming. They took care of our luggage while we walk around the whole day Please wash the pick bla

Very friendly ajussi!

First off, good luck getting a taxi that can actually find this place. The taxi dropped me off and then I spent an hour trying to locate the place on foot. It ended up being a 25 minute walk to the other side of town with all my luggage in tow on a hot and sunny day which was very unpleasant. Once I arrived, check in was easy. The accommodation was very basic which I didn’t mind because I only needed a place to sleep for one night. The shower leaked water all over the sleeping area even though the shower door was closed so I had to use my towel to mop it up. Then when I finally laid down to go to sleep, I woke up to my blankets, floor mattress, and phone charging cord being soaking wet due to the air conditioner apparently dripping water at fast pace.

This is a traditional style hanok building with sliding paper/wood doors and an open roof atrium in the centre. Our room had low ceilings about 6ft high. The floor cushion/mattress is a 3-4 inch padded mat so it’s not as soft as a western style mattress. The air conditioner worked great even in the 30degree Celsius rainy weather we had. The pillows were Korean style cylinders filled with rice. The breakfast was delicious. We were given 8 side dishes, rice and bean sprout soup, which had an amazing broth. You sit in your room at a low table on the floor for eating which was brought to our door at 7:30am. The room itself locked from the inside but not the outside. It’s located right in the middle of a very cute and walkable neighbourhood filled with cafes, Photo Booth studios, shops and restaurants. You cannot drive up to the door, you need to walk about 50 metres around the corner. Shampoo, conditioner and bar soap was provided. Medium sized towels were provided but no bath towels. Importantly, the washroom was a Korean style no-bathtub situation, with a drain in the floor and a removable shower head. Me and my sister really enjoyed this authentic experience, we are able to sleep on the floor. By the way it’s not sound proof but our neighbours were quiet so we slept well. The shared lobby area had many items stored there like extra cases of food and buckets and watermelons. It is not wheelchair accessible.

We stayed as a group of four—two adults and two kids. The room was a bit small but cozy, and overall, it was a very good experience for all of us. The kids really enjoyed sleeping on the futons. It took the adults a little time to get used to them, but it ended up being a very memorable stay. Breakfast was brought to our room, and we enjoyed leaving the door open to eat while taking in the quiet morning atmosphere. The location is great—just a short walk from Anguk Station and still manageable even with luggage. We loved being able to walk around the neighborhood, which is full of shops and restaurants. We would definitely recommend staying here if you're looking for a wonderful traditional Korean-style accommodation.

It was a really cool location and experience but the room is quite small and not sound proof at all. The owners were friendly but I could hear them and other guests at night.

Not a traditional hotel by any means, but very traditional South Korean guest house. The Korean breakfast was fantastic. A bit hard to find.

Generally a good stay. Great breakfasts, friendly hosts, wonderful location. We'd do it again. Not for everyone though. Our room for 5 was very tight and the AC drained directly on to the bathroom floor. With some tidying up and care, this could really be a first rate stay, esp. given its location. If you don't mind a somewhat barebones experience with a good breakfast, go for it.

This accommodation is traditional Korean lodging style with only a comforter (some has stains) as a bedding which is hard for those not used to hard sleeping surface. The floor is heated though. Air conditioning is available. The space is small for 4 people with luggages. The Korean breakfast is great and served at 8 am. The location is close to many restaurants (even Michelin rated) and walking distance to Gyeongbokdung palace and train stations.
