    A dreamlike quiet hanok in traditional Jeonju, with lively Jeonju only streets away.

    Liked : This place is seriously in the heart of traditional Jeonju, with the more upbeat Jeonju only 10 minutes away. You can enjoy the silence in the beautiful hanok (but there was a very amazing traditional Korean performance one night too!) but then sing your heart out at karaoke a few blocks further. The host is super helpful and really kind (I got extra water bottles without asking and he also helped with how to get a taxi back to the station), you're allowed to smoke in the garden, the self-made bed was comfortable enough, and honestly; the vibe was just nice. Food in Jeonju is great and the people are so sweet.

    Disliked : The bathroom had a bit of a smell to it, but if you keep the door closed it does not become a problem; the AC also works just fine to fix the smell.

    Traditional ondol experience in the birthplace of Bibimbap

    Liked : The homestay is inside the traditional korean village. A bit small but suited well for our needs. All basic necessities were provided and the host was available via Whatsapp with all the information.

    Disliked : None

    Liked : It is one of the best experiences you could have in Jeonju.
    The hanok itself is very pretty and authentic. I love a concept of the floor bed (my back feels really good after, but my bf said it’s a subjective point haha).
    The room was nice for two people with a small carry on luggage. You could get some extra things (like a tea table or bigger towels) per request.
    Owner provides a lot of useful information about the city, restaurants around etc.
    Check-in system is quite convenient as well.
    I definitely recommend if you are looking for a pleasant experience and nice price/quality ratio stay in a hanok village.

    We had great communication with owner YK, before and during our stay, with lots of helpful tips.

    Liked : Right inside the hanok village. Very peaceful at night. Heated floor is so effective that I actually turned it off once I was ready to sleep. Futon is firm but I found it perfectly comfortable. Tiny but functional bathroom; great water pressure in the shower.
