Proprio très souriante et aux petits soins avec pleins de petites attentions dans la maison. Maison traditionnelle à plafond bas comme à l'époque. Nous avons vécu un super séjour à la coréenne.

Tout était bien

집 건물이 이쁘고 전통적인 느낌을 잘 간직하고 있다. 호스트님의 친절함이 최고다. 위치가 좋다. 가격대비 완전 만족이다. 깨끗한 수건이 충분히 많다. 냉장고에 물을 충분히 준비해주셔서 너무 편했다. 침구들이 너무 깨끗하고 고급스러웠다. 최고급 호텔 침구수준이다. 호텔식 숙소에 비하면 잠자리가 아주 편했다.

여름철이다보니, 모기가 많고( 모기퇴치제, 약이 구비되어 있다. 해결되지 않는부분일수도 있다. ) 에어컨이 없는 공간은 조금 불편했지만, 에어컨이 있는 공간이 넓어서 큰 불편은 없었다. 이부분은 여름이기 때문에 발생된것들이라서 다른 계절에는 문제가 되지 않는다.

"Traditional Hanok house in a very traditional area"

8.0

The location was great and it was a traditional Hanok as promised. The host was so lovely and kind. She brought us to the local convenience store to buy our T cards and to a local fried chicken restaurant where she ordered for us before leaving us. Most people do not speak English in South Korea so google translate is vital.

Not suitable for people with mobility needs. Sleeping on the floor is not for everyone so be aware of this. It does not appear on Naver maps so put in The N Hotel which is on the corner if you are booking an Uber or transfer from the airport.

"Beautiful property with a very kind, helpful and generous host."

8.0

Beautiful, traditional Hanok, with great living space for our family. Exceptionally kind and generous host and we appreciated her help and assistance in all aspects of our stay. Highly recommend!

The property was on a back street in more of a market-style neighborhood.

"Lovely place, great location, wonderful host and we wish we could stay longer."

10.0

The host Mrs Shin was wonderful. She communicated well despite not having a native grasp of English and her sincere thoughtfulness in checking us in and settling us down and showing us the rooms, switches etc cannot be understated. She even asked us about our plans and made great recommendations and planned a route for us. On a rainy day, she texted to remind us where umbrellas were. The location itself is fantastic because it is central to other attractions, and the house is beautiful and historical. It is right near a convenience store, a lot of great restaurants, a new leather themed dessert cafe bar Gach that we believe will be the next big thing, and in a historic leather and textile town. We even bought genuine leather belts just the street across from the house and the elderly folks that we met in Dongmyo are so sweet and friendly. This is not a touristic area at all, but one where you can really observe living. The facilities are not new but incredibly well-maintained, cosy, and all worked well. We really enjoyed sleeping with the mattresses and experiencing a slice of old-school, slow living. The courtyard is perfect for photos and has a lovely persimmon tree (the namesake of this house!) where we sat and enjoyed meals and conversations. If price was more affordable for us, we would have wanted to stay at least a week and not just two nights. If you manage to book this place, I think an open-hearted traveller type won’t regret it. It is a home away from home.

Nothing, it was all as described and better.
