Guest reviews for Backpacker's Home
"Friendly, helpful staff. Good location. Generous free breakfast. Reasonably clean."
"Because of the open plan it could get cold in the room. There is heating (controlled from the front desk, so you have to go down and get them to turn it on for you) but it didn't seem so effective against the cold. You can't close the window in the bathroom so using the toilet/shower can be an even more chilling experience."
"Really good and social vibes. The bbq nights are a great way to meet people. During my stay, there were also live shows in the bar. The facilities are huge but still keep a cozy and laid-back atmosphere. You really feel like you're on an island far away from everything. It is also well situated : close to a lot of bus stops, including those who go to Jeju city, close to shops, cafes, restaurants, convenience stores etc. Also close to one of the waterfalls. Sam was particularly welcoming. He hosted the bbq nights so well, made sure everybody was well fed and took the time to chat with us, which was really appreciated."
"The shower was not very hot."
"Everything is well taken care of with an exceptionally patio full of trees and plants, tables and chairs, a nightly wood fire on the patio. It's really a lovely place--the photos you see are old and the actual place is beautiful. The second patio has an amazing huge wood table. They have live music some weekends and have a daily bar and hot food available for a cost. There is also a rooftop patio where you can look out to the ocean. The staff was great and works hard to help you. The breakfast is exceptional--hot food, toast and jam or you can cook your own eggs, fruit and or carrot sticks, cereals, coffee, milk and tea. The location is really good, for walking and buses are easy to take anywhere."
"everything was good."
"The location is great, and the staff organized events making it easier to meet people. We took a private room that was spotted clean and spacious. Very good option for solo travellers as well!"
"Aucun."
"The beer garden, pub and house with the rooms is cool and has a nice spacious vibe. Dorms rooms have their own shower and toilets, which is great. Good quality, ie wooden floors even in the dorms etc."
"It could use fresh paint here and there some tidying up."
"great for the value , rooms & bathroom were very clean , shower is big & they provide amenities , having one bathroom for the whole room is nice (i ended up having the room to myself half the stay) , the owners are very nice & speak english (they lived in canada) , social hostel , location is also good near bus stops"
"Aucun."
"A good surprise as i was not expecting too much here, rooms were nice with few people. It was very social and good vibe while i was there Decent breakfast, but has changed since then Staff was helpful"
"The 'open corridor' to go in your room can be very cold and wet, maybe not suited for winter"
"Clean and modern facilities, friendly and helpful staff and manager, great location to traditional markets to public transportation ... and healthy Korean breakfast"
"Aucun."
"Friendly staff, central location super close to olle trail 6 and 7; close to lots of bus lines and convenience stores, very social but also not a party environment, very comfortable beds and spacious rooms, quiet at night, and 3 cute dogs live in the outside area!"
"Not the cleanest, I did see some small stains and hairs that weren’t mine on the mattress and the shower wall looked a bit moldy; but overall mostly clean"
"Very good value , great location, friendly dogs, big dorms with clean bathroom, very fast internet"
"I chose the place because it included breakfast. There was a sign at the entrance that said "no breakfast the next days because of renovation work". Either they serve breakfast somewhere else (which would be totally possible) or they lower the price since people already paid with a breakfast included. They did not even serve tea or coffee in the morning."

"The room 😍 and the bathroom was big and clean that which I love most."
Dauda Ischia Hotel
"The room was spacious and comfortable. It was well-stocked, which was awesome because I had misplaced my toothbrush, but the room had a toiletries bag that included a new one! The bed was comfortable, and the mini-fridge and kettle were great. The breakfast in the mornings was tasty and filling. The staff at the front desk were super kind and helpful."
Long Astro Hotel
"The room had large windows overlooking the ocean and a pine-wood bathtub in the room. I had the opportunity to experience a Japanese-inspired hot tub and tea table. Their breakfast was a diverse selection, including Korean, American, and other dishes that could be customized to suit my preferences from the tables."
"Hotel conceirge was very helpful in giving directions for my trips in the town. Amenities in the room were very good with a good supply of toileteries to water, chocolate snack, Ramyeon and coffee, tea readily available. I didnt lack for anything including a face mask."
Unissa Apple Drive-in Hotel
"It had many facilities available and the room was quite big. The staff spoke some English and overall they were polite and helpful. I was on a cycling trip from Seoul to Busan and the location was good for me."
Jaanus Ilsung Condo Namhan River
"방도 넓고 욕실과 욕조도 크고 넓었습니다. 물도 온천물이라서 너무 좋았어요~ 주변 온천갈꺼없이 여기서 온천욕하면 될꼬같아요 웰컴 스낵도 너무 좋았습니다. 다음에 또 방문할 의사 있습니다."
Park A2 Hotel Desingers
"Bigso was a total surprise. Like an oasis! Calm and quiet, spectacular views, kind and warm hosts. The bed was so comfortable! My bedroom window opened letting in fresh air. Everything is within easy walking distance or access to local transit. I’d stay here again without hesitation!"
