I absolutely love this place! It’s run by the owner and his mum, who are so kind and helpful. It’s very quiet and clean, but there’s a social scene if you want it (the owners run a bar across the street). Highly recommended!
If you’re ever in Yeosu (and you really should visit this underrated city!) I would definitely recommend you stay here. Great location, really lovely staff and excellent facilities. Highly recommended, thank you!
I had a super convenient, clean, and comfortable stay.
There's a bus stop right behind the hostel, making it easy to get around. You can reach popular destinations like Hyangiram Hermitage, Odongdo Island, Yeosu Expo Station, and Yeosu Airport directly by bus.
Jinnamgwan Hall and Yi Sunsin Square are also accessible—just a 15-minute walk or a short bus ride away.
Right across the street, there’s a supermarket where you can buy food, fresh vegetables, and daily essentials. Highly recommended for backpackers or solo travelers.
This is such a lovely guesthouse in Yeosu! The owners (a man and his mother) are super friendly and there to help you with whatever you need. The room was clean and had everything you need amenities-wise, plus the guesthouse has things like a kitchen and washing machine available. It was quiet enough to get a quality night’s sleep, but there’s a bar across the street from the hostel if you want to hang out with other guests. I thoroughly recommend this place for any travellers who want a peaceful stay but with the warm feeling of a kind welcome.
Très joli hostel .coin calme . Bus à proximité Le propio est sympa et parle anglais . La chambre/dortoir est un peu petite pour 4 ,pas de rangement pour les valises . La sdb est assez grande dommage qu'il n'y ai pas d'étagère pour poser nos affaires .
가족여행으로 묵었는데 청결했고, 서비스도 평범했어요. 다만 룸 들어가자마자 곱등이,,,가 반겨줘서 때려잡느라 고생을 좀 했네요.. 아마 반지하를 터서 만든 방이라 창문이나 문틈으로 들어온 게 아닐까 싶어요. 룸이 꽤 넓었고, 화장실도 깨끗해서 그것 말고는 정말 괜찮았던 숙소에요. 체크인을 늦게까지 받으시는 것도 좋았고요.
사진상으로 본거에 비해 협소하고, 무엇보다 주차장이 작아
주차가 불가능함
그리고 객실 방음도 잘되지 않아 , 옆 객실 소음이 다 들림
아침 조식이라고 하기에도 창피할 정도임.
서비스도 그닥.. 친절하지 않고, 응대하는 직원인지 대표인지는 모르겠지만 말투가 다소 건방짐(반말투)
Really nice place. Everything was perfect! The place is really clean, tidy and well kept. The bed was very confy with everything you need for yohr stay. They also have a kitchen so you can cook your own meals. They also provide a nice breakfast
전체적으로 감사했습니다.
대안으로 신청한 숙소였는데
가성비 Thanks!
친절, 편안함 Thanks!
아침식사도 Thanks!
전반적으로 좋았습니다.
다만 다른 투숙객이
할당된 제 수건까지 사용하시고
다시 완전범죄(?)를 의도한 듯 이층 사다리에 물젖은 수건을 갖다 놓은점 빼고는 다 좋았습니다.
2020년 대박 나시고 덕분에 일출 잘 보고 왔습니다. ^^
감사합니다.
