Lovely guesthouse in Yeosu
I absolutely love this place! It’s run by the owner and his mum, who are so kind and helpful. It’s very quiet and clean, but there’s a social scene if you want it (the owners run a bar across the street). Highly recommended!

This is such a lovely guesthouse in Yeosu! The owners (a man and his mother) are super friendly and there to help you with whatever you need. The room was clean and had everything you need amenities-wise, plus the guesthouse has things like a kitchen and washing machine available. It was quiet enough to get a quality night’s sleep, but there’s a bar across the street from the hostel if you want to hang out with other guests. I thoroughly recommend this place for any travellers who want a peaceful stay but with the warm feeling of a kind welcome.

게스트하우스는 처음 가 봤는데 좋은 기억 가득 담고 왔어요 :) 사장님 두 분 완전 친절하시고 건물 입구부터 넘 예뻐서 기분도 더 좋았어요! 숙소도 깔끔하고 공간 충분하고 쾌적해서 편히 머물다 왔습니다~ 추천해요!

Great location, with the Yeosu expo and the Big-O only a few minutes walk away! They have a great lounge area as well and I didn’t feel like breakfast was too crowded, which sometimes happens at hostels. I met two wonderful girls and we went around the town together, it was such a great experience of a far corner of the country that I was hesitant to explore. Thanks for making it possible backpackers! :)

Close to Hero Street
I loved the stay, about 10 to 15 minute walk to Hero Street and maybe another 5 to the river front. The only thing I didn't like was the curfew at 11 AM and the quiet plea to be back by 1 AM. I didn't see this information on the hostels.com, but it didn't really effected me because I came back by 1 AM. Still, I like the option to not worry about being back for a time. I don't think the curfew is taken seriously, but there it is.

Best guesthouse I stayed.
Having trouble to get to the guesthouse as their no train available in Yeosu but it walkable from Yeosu-Expo (about 15 min walk). It's not hard to find as the guesthouse is so well decorated and they even have a bar right opp them (you get a discount if you are staying in the guesthouse).

Comfortable place to stay
My friend and I were the only foreigner in the guest home as I think. Luckily, I know some Korean and speak little because 99% of them spoke Korean to us.. A host was trying to speak our language to make us understand..Even other guests thought we were Korean and asked us some question on the morning in the kitchen..It was so funny. I think this place is easy find and convenient to go to other attraction.

Très joli hostel .coin calme . Bus à proximité Le propio est sympa et parle anglais . La chambre/dortoir est un peu petite pour 4 ,pas de rangement pour les valises . La sdb est assez grande dommage qu'il n'y ai pas d'étagère pour poser nos affaires .
