    beautiful traditional house, sliding wooden doors, small patio with city view

    Very steep streets can be exhausting after a day of exploring!!! Shared bathroom could lead to inconvenience during busy times!!! Limited common area for families seeking space!!! Lack of traditional costume rental options during our stay!!!

    Staying at this traditional place with my family, including 4 kids, was a lovely experience. We enjoyed the location near palaces and the warm atmosphere of the hanok. The breakfast was fantastic, featuring dishes like red bean porridge and veggie pancakes!

    Charming Traditional Stay

    Staying in this beautiful traditional house was an unforgettable experience. The interior, adorned with sliding wooden doors and minimal furnishings, truly gave me a feel of old Korea. I loved the delicious breakfast, especially the veggie pancakes, and the helpfulness of the lady of the house who even organized a taxi for me. Just a heads up, the steep streets might feel challenging after a long day of exploring!

    Staying in the Double Room with Shared Bathroom was a blast! The traditional floor bed felt super comfy, which was a nice surprise. I really loved the old-school charm with sliding wooden doors and the beautiful wallpaper. The shower and bathroom setup was impressive too. Just a heads up, the shared bathroom can be a little inconvenient if it's busy. Overall, the vibes were amazing in this cozy traditional Korean home!

    shared bathroom inconvenience

    The charming architecture encapsulates everyday life in a bygone era, blending traditional elements with modern comforts. The cozy room featured a unique floor bed that provided unexpected comfort, and waking up to a delightful breakfast filled with local specialties such as roasted meats and red bean porridge was a treat. However, navigating the steep streets after a long day of exploration proved challenging, and the small common areas made it less ideal for families to gather.

    charming stay but be prepared for the stairs

    The room was beautifully designed with traditional sliding wooden doors and a comfortable floor bed that surprisingly offered great comfort. The staff truly stood out. they were responsive and helped me get a taxi on my checkout day, showing genuine care. The view from the small patio was lovely, offering a glimpse of both the mountains and the vibrant city life around.

    The steep streets can feel challenging, especially after a long day of exploring.
