お兄さんの気遣いがうれしく、ゆったりと気楽に過ごせる宿。

部屋は寝るところとシャワー・バスが広々としていてゆったりと過ごせました。 アメニティも充実していて良かったです。 管理人さんは常駐していないので、チェックイン時に時間を伝える必要があります。今回少し遅れてしまったのですが、近所のクリーニング屋のおじさんが声をかけてくれたりして無事に会えました。 旅のプランを聞いて、移動手段などをi padで教えてくれたりしてお世話になりました。 宿の中で顔を合わせると、何か困ったことはないか聞いてくれたり、 こちらの拙い英語と韓国語でのこの日こんなことがあったという一方的な喋りにも付き合ってくれて、楽しく過ごすことができました。 １点気をつけてほしいのが、他の部屋はわからないけれどシャワーのお湯の出が結構悪かった（水がお湯になるまで10分近くかかった）ことです。 それ以外はとても良かったです。

コストパフォーマンス最高でした。

ゲストハウスあるいはホステルという範疇の宿泊施設でしたが、コストパフォーマンス最高でした。立地も、バスターミナルから徒歩１５分ほど、地下鉄農城駅には３分と便利です。 チェックインが深夜１２：００、チェックアウトが早朝４：００でしたが事前にメールをしてオーナーが快く対応してくれました。結局使わなかったけどミーティングルームやキッチンもあります。トースト、ラーメンなどが無料です。 もちろんWi-Fi完備です。 すぐ近くにコンビニ（ミニストップ）もあります。 一人旅では大満足です。

ホテルの看板が分からず、うろうろしてると建物から、オーナーが出て来て案内してくれました。 最初にラッピングしてあるアメニティを渡され、カギ、部屋の案内、キッチン、無料洗濯機の利用など手際よく案内してくれました。キッチンが自由に使えて、近くのマーケットから食材を買って 料理する事が出来ました。毎日、出来立てご飯があります。 手際よく

とにかく便利です。

マネージャーは若い男性ですが、気配りがよく出来る人です。何かと親切に声をかけてくれます。部屋の掃除もよく行き届いていると思います。ベッドの下も埃りがありません。掃除の必要な時は札をドアにかけておきます。それ以外は部屋を開けませんので衣服を掛けっぱなしでも気をつかわなくてすみます。食事はフリーで材料は備えてあるのでラーメンを作って食べることも出来ます。光州バスターミナルから７００㍍位なので徒歩で行けます。タミャン、南原、白羊寺など周辺の観光地に出かけるのに便利です。地下鉄農城駅まで徒歩５分くらいなので地下鉄も利用して市内観光にも便利です。

Spacious private wet bathroom

The owner was very helpful in helping navigate, from the train station. He emailed a few days before to ask what time we would likely check in. We texted him for public trans and popular spots to tour. He provided maps. Check in included a care package of all the essentials (and more) for grooming. Filtered water was available. We didn't try breakfast but ramen, coffee, tea and water were available. The stairs were very dusty but it didn't bother anyone's allergies, surprinsingly. The key for our room included a flashlight and panic button, in case of emergencies. There is no elevator, but the stairs were carpeted. There was a window in our room. No outisde noise was heard on the 4th floor. Very close to the subway and bus stops. I would definitely stay here again.

Terrible facilities, services, dishonest owner

好鬼唔誠實的HOSTEL, 個OWNER自己貪小便宜, 設施服務差, 比錢我都唔會再入住囉. 1. 沖涼, 要先開水10分鐘以上,才有熱水供應 2. 沖涼位置要從坐廁及洗面盆中間的隙縫入...沖完涼, 隻腳掂到坐廁邊才出到廁所囉 (我不重過110磅） 3. 全棟走廊開窗, 早晚出入上落超凍 4. 公眾飲水機地下, 或最高"廚房", 夜晚九/十點過後, 公眾地方全關燈, 要摸黑, 頗危險 5. 一小包仔的試用裝大小的補充裝沖涼液供你數天使用,要見到OWNER才可再取,極不方便 6. OWNER說只有他一人打理, 所以你入住到走, 不會有人執房, 除非你電郵說明, 還要清楚交代咩野要做喎....唔係佢唔會做 7. 提早CHECK-OUT(早上七時前), 發現遺留小手信, 1.5小時內電郵OWNER, OWNER說掉了....(好恐怖, 無得抵賴係其他人取了, 因為他自己做清潔)

Gwangju's Hidden Gem

This hostel is owned, managed and staffed by a one-man show. He is always alert, eager to help, and kind. He is also the Tourist Information Centre. If you need any advise, he will be the man. This is what a great hostel should be. I booked a single room for 2 nights and I was very satisfied with it - flat TV, heater, fan, and toiletries. There was a kitchen that open 24 hours. They got ramen, egg, sausages, bread, orange juice , milk and etc - you just have to cook it yourself and wash it up. The location is about 15 minutes walk from the main bus terminal where you can get inter-city bus, and about 5 mins walk from the nearest subway. All in all, I highly recommend this place.

여행자를 위한 최고의 숙소

사장님 엄청 친절하시고, 숙소 저렴하고 깔끔합니다. 방 청결상태나 침구류도 깨끗하고 편안합니다. 주방은 24시간 오픈되어있고, 조식메뉴로 보통 나오는 식품들을 상시 구비해두셨어요. 심지어 라면도 언제든 배고플 때 각자 끓여먹을 수 있습니다. 휴게실은 사용이 별로 없는지 약간 먼지가 있고 협소합니다. 세탁기도 무료로 사용가능합니다. 1층엔 여행 관련한 각종 자료들을 언제든 가져다 볼 수 있게 비치해두셨구요. 어메니티로 각종 욕실용품에 마스크팩까지 준비해주실 줄이야!!! 이정도 가격으로 이렇게 깔끔한 곳에서 매일 여독을 풀기가 가능할 거라 생각 못했어요. 여행자가 정말 필요한 게 뭔지 아시는 분이라 생각합니다.

Great value and location

This place is conveniently situated about 10 minutes walk to the bus station and about five minutes to the subway, which connects to the airport. There are lots of restaurants and huge e market for supplies. It's not a new place and is a bit crusty, but it makes up for it with a nice common room and small kitchen with free supplies for breakfast. The room was small but the beds comfortable. Bedrooms come with all sorts of supplies like shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, brushes, hairdryer, etc.. The manager is very sweet and very obliging. In all great value for money.

光州泊なら絶対オススメ

登山目的で韓国へ。光州バスターミナル付近の宿が絶対条件の中、地下鉄からも近く、バスターミナルまでも徒歩圏内かつ、コスパがすごい！！宿のチーフマネージャーの親切なこと。周辺付近も含めた観光に役立つチラシも多数置いてあり本当に助かりました。光州に再び行く際は、迷わずまた泊まります。自炊の朝食までついていて、本当に儲けはあるのかと心配になる位でした。今回は、３人（男１・女２）での宿泊のため、私は女性限定のシェアルームに泊まりました。３泊中、ルームメイトは一人だけでしたが、女性同士のグループなら、シェアルームで修学旅行気分をあえて味わうのもいいかもしれませんよ(^^♪　今度は、ハングルを少しでも身に着けて、また遊びに行きたいです。カムサハムニダ～♪♪♪

大通りから１本裏手の静かで自由気ままなホステル

建物は新しくはなく、またエレベーターもありませんが、室内はしっかりリフォームされており、快適な環境でした。チェックインの際にはオーナーさん自ら荷物を持って部屋まで案内してくださり、好印象でした。 共用キッチンは24時間利用可。冷蔵庫の食材やインスタントラーメンがフリーなのがうれしい心遣い。隣にはランドリーもありました。 チェックインの時間が限られていますので、この時間から外れる際には予約時にしっかりとリクエストしておいて下さい。 若きオーナーさんは常駐ではなく、また日本語も話せませんが、片言の韓国語か英語でどうにかなります。お仕着せでない、いかにも韓国人（というよりも全羅道人）らしいホスピタリティ精神にあふれ、きっと良き旅の相談相手となってくれることでしょう。
