I only stayed one night but would have liked to stay longer. It is a great place if you want to settle in for a few days. Comfortable, clean and quiet for some quality rest after lots of walking. Close to the bus stop and local attractions. The kitchen is great and has everything you need for cooking. The breakfast was surprisingly worthwhile too.

The owner Hana is very friendly. She can come anytime to help or answer questions. The place is very cosy. I'm 1,80 and the bed was just enough and it was comfortable. Great localisation. Open kitchen.

A proper Backpacker's, made by a backpacker. You could tell by the design and also overall set up. Very clean and the dorm ensuite is spacious and has a bathtub! That's a first. Centrally located and very social, they operate a bar right next door and that's where all the socialising happens every night. Kitchen was well equipped, and they even have a huge basement with Netflix, games, and a long table for parties. I was pleasantly surprised to be greeted by a postcard of my city displayed right at the reception! I haven't met the owner but the volunteers there are friendly. Totally loved the place! Well done to the owner.

Really great option if you want to explore Gyeongju! The bus stop if you want to go to the Bulguksa temple is also nearby as well as bus terminals. We had everything we needed for our stay including eggs "for cook it yourself" breakfast! Highly recommended!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

We stayed in a private room which was clean and sized to the budget. There were free laundry facilities, which we were delighted to use. There was a good breakfast included. The bus station is nearby. The guesthouse / hostel was excellent and I would recommend it to anyone spending a few nights in Gyeongju on a budget.
