“Felt like home”
The host is such a wonderful and warm hearted lady. Although she doesn't speak English, you feel like staying at your grandma's place. Love her and the place, would go again just to meet her. :)

Halmeoni was so nice :) I miss her already - she really treats you well as soon as you step in. I can speak a bit of korean so conversation was okay for me however if you dont know how to speak she is okay with using the translator. It feels like you come back to see your grandma in your hometown. I love it

This place is truly a guesthouse as I felt like visiting a relatives house during my stay. The host was always making sure that I had eaten and offered snacks. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and hope I get a chance to visit again.

“Great stay in Gyeongju”
The hanok style house is really beautiful and the host very friendly (especially if you can speak Korean). Sleeping on the warm floor was another amazing experience. I totally recommend this place.

“Korean guesthouse experience”
If you want a real Korean guesthouse experience, this super sweet grandmother will welcome you with open arms. She is extremely cheerful and hospitable and will make sure you never go thirsty or hungry and have a good sightseeing plan. We appreciated the ramen and watermelon breakfast and her kind offer to do laundry. Watching the Olympics with her (and the help of Google translate), ranks up there with one of our best memories of Korea.

“Well worth it. No male dorms only female.”
Get your google translate out as the lady who owns the house speaks only Korean period. But she also wants to be a great host and will be sure you are showered l, fed etc. she seems to genuinely care.
