Happiness Full Hanok Guesthouse

It’s importent to understand what sort of place this is. It’s a traditional Korean guest house. You sleep on a thin mattress on the floor. One guest staying at the same time as us was expecting it to be a bit more like a Holiday Inn and seemed disappointed. The facilities are basic, but provide everything you need. We thought it was great and would certainly stay again if in the area. The owner is the perfect host. Very eager to please and has provided many extras in the communal part of the guest house - microwave, chilled water, tea & coffee etc. The location couldn’t be better. It’s near the river, on the edge of the Hanok village, which is a big tourist attraction.

The guesthouse is well located, although, it was quite difficult to find the place upon arrival. Everything is easily accessible. The room was simple but quite big with a private bathroom. I could have 2 mattresses which made the bed comfortable enough. The lounge has a fridge, a microwave and a coffee/team machine. Water bottles are complementary. The host is very nice and helpful. Always there to give a hand or an information.

It was a beautiful Hanok with a nice garden. The owner was so nice and everything was perfect. It was in a good location. I was told I got upgraded in a double room instead of a single room, so I was a little surprised how small the room was, but it is not a big deal, I mean I am in a foreign country so I will anyway use the room only for sleeping. For everyone who has never been to Korea (or Japan), you will sleep on a tradtionial futon on the floor so don’t expect a super soft matress! I love the futons so it was perfect for me.

I really enjoyed my stay ! After having watched so many historical dramas, it was nice to experience it in real. The owner was really nice and I really liked the fact that there was a common room. It was a great way to meet people! And regarding the comfort, after reading the other comments, I was afraid that it might me uncomfortable but in fact I had the best night ever ! I'm team hard mattress so this was so nice ! I think I'm going to sell by bed once... And I was also afraid the room would be too small for one person, it was just perfect.

Great location. Kind host. Quiet, clean, comfortable. Fantastic coffee machine in common area. Ice too! Much appreciated in the heat of summer. Very good restaurant one house away (at the top of the alley).
