Gwaneumsa Temple Tours

The reason why I chose to stay here is because I rented a car and read that other hotels didn’t have many parking spots and/or had bad experiences with parking. I needed to guarantee a spot for my car. The resort/hotel is quite excluded from the other areas and there doesn’t seem to be anything around it (nothing within walking distance), besides the convenience store attached to the resort. There also are properties next to it, but the buildings seemed abandoned and/or demolished. I studied the area prior to arriving, so you need to go to building A to check in. Check in process was ok. But when we got to our room, it smelled like smoke. My mom had called the front desk and asked to change the room. It seemed like the front desk didn’t understand her at first, but quickly we got another room, which we were satisfied with. We chose to say in a 1 twin and 1 double room. The whole room was spacious, living room and bathroom. Housecleaning would come everyday and change towels, make the bed, and replenish our water supply (3 bottles per day since it’s a room for 3). Midway through our stay, we were asked to move into another room, due to the AC not working properly. We ended up changing to a room with 3 twin beds, which was fine. There was also a laundry and dryer room, which we used. I think the price depended on the type of load. We chose the standard wash and dry, which was 5,000 won each (cycles took 45 min to 1 hour).

Property is located in a quiet neighborhood; room is very spacious and clean, mini kitchen with cooking tools (rice cooker & pots, pans, dishes, etc-it’s like an one room apartment!). Has a nice size heated outdoor pool! Grocery store (eMart) 15 min drive. Nice family friendly place!
