Place has a homey vibe and delivers on the basics of comfort and cleanliness. Host Panda Mom even took the initiative to message me to ask what time I am arriving and was responsive to my every message. Had a good stay that I ended up extending for one more night. It is located on the 3rd floor of a building that is close to busy streets for food and shopping.

A great place! I was in Gwanju unfortunately during a massive heat wave (40 degrees), and so I didn't see too much of the city, but the hostel was a great place to hunker down in with the AC on. I was the only one in my room which was nice, but the beds have curtains, too. The bathroom was huge. Breakfast was really nice, a very convenient self-serve, which I love because it takes the pressure off of a set time. If you wake up at 2am or 2pm, you can still have breakfast. Very thoughtful. Coffee and tea available, too. Lots of towels. Lockers. A big desk. Just a great place all around.

Friendly host. We stayed in the guesthouse (not the hanok) and I would stay there again. The bed was divine and it was close to the airport.

The woman who lives here is the sweetest. She made sure we had everything we needed and even gave us a tour up to the mountain to show us the cherry blossoms. The next day her husband brought us to the bus station which was very nice. They are the nicest people we ever met.

    Quiet location but still near bus stops and metro station. A comfortable bed and kitchen to do my own cooking if I felt like it, but also there are many restaurants nearby. The guesthouse cafe was really cool with lots of books and decent coffee. Pedro was really helpful with tips on things to do in the city.
