An interesting experience.

This was right in the heart of the main tourist area, and was an old traditional Hanok with modernised rooms. A Korean breakfast is brought to your door in the morning, prepared by the hosts. You have to be aware that in a traditional Hanok, you'll be sleeping in one room on the floor, with very little furniture. I could have done with a kettle and cups though.

정감가는 한옥집

친구들이랑 방 잡고 놀려고 예약했는데 아기자기하고 우리끼리 놀기 좋았어요 ㅋㅋ 약간 방음이 안되서 시끄럽게 하면 좀 그랬지만 ...ㅎㅎ 방바닥도 완전 뜨끈뜨끈하고 아침으로 주시는 밥도 정말 맛있고! 할머니 집 놀러온 것 같은 푸근한 기분이었습니다!

사진과 너무 다른 숙소

친구들과의 행복한 시간을 위해 선택한 숙소였는데 후회스러운 선택이 되었네요. 결코 작은 금액이 아닌데 방에 김치냄새가 심하게 나는 냉장고, 식당용 상등이 있었습니다. 다른방과의 방음도 안되어 크게 이야기하기도 힘듭니다. 선택시 사진과 너무 다르다는점 참고 바랍니다.

가성비 떨어짐. 비추

주말 저녁 한옥스테이를 한 것이 잘못이었나봐요. 옆방과 다른 쪽 방에서 한밤중까지 떠들고 노는 소리에 정말 힘들었어요. 편리한 위치와 아침 된장국이 좋았던것 말고는 가성비에 플러스 요인이 없었어요. 참, 너무 옛날식 방문 잠금장치가 불안함을 주었어요.

사장님께서 친절하시고, 아침 식사가 맛있었습니다. 조금 아쉬웠던 점은, 계속 사람들이 많이 오지 않아서인지 마당에 짐들이 있어 생기가 조금 없다는 느낌을 받았습니다. 하지만 추천합니다@
