Changgo-ri, Hadong hotel rooms at the Independent

"Very friendly owner. She doesn’t speak english, but was able to communicate using a translation app. Nice little apartment overlooking a small river. Good rest stop if you are cycling the Seomjingang bike trail. Steep uphill to reach the place (if you are cycling)"

"The room was big, clean, and very nice. Parking was easy and free too."

"Hot spring is great"

"방음이 조금 안 되어서 시끄러웠던 거 빼고(히노끼 욕조 있는 바깥 말하는게 아니에요 바깥은 당연한거죠 복도쪽 소리가 엄청 들어와서 잘 때는 침대방 문 닫고 자야 해요. 가족으로 와서 이불깔고 거실에서 잤는데 소리가 넘 많이 울리더라고요) 정말 만족스러운 숙소였어요. 특히 히노끼 욕조는 정말 너무너무 좋았어요. 가족들 모두 엄청 좋아했답니다."

"I very much enjoyed walking around the property. "

"I loved my stay at this hotel. The owner/manager at reception was so helpful and kind, he even ensured I got my bus okay when I left. The hotel was super clean and the bed was really comfortable. It was nice and quiet too."

"The room was very spacious, comfortable, and clean. We had a view of the river from our window, which was nice. The back deck area on the river was a bonus, even if we didn't get to use it as we were away hiking most of our stay. It is a little far from town (you have to take a taxi or bus which are difficult to determine schedules for), but it is very near the Haweomsa Temple, the start of our hike. The lady at the front desk was very helpful."

"Location was very close and within walking distance to the intercity bus terminal so was easy to find. We were staying for only one night whilst the annual Jinju lantern festival was taking place, so the hotel was right along the river where the festival was which was really convenient and we could see the lanterns from our bedroom window as well. Only downside was that the rooms were a bit outdated, the carpet was older and had a few stains and the bathroom had really poor drainage and had flooded the bathroom after a shower. Other than that, was suitable for a budget friendly one night stay."

"Helpful owner"
