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.

    I’ve been travelling for ten months and this must be the coziest guesthouse/ hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Felt right at home the moment I’ve checked in, the owner is so friendly and helps whenever he can. Beds could be more comfortable but for the price/ location is a good place. The place is clean and a good spot to meet new people. Had such a lovely stay at this place. Thank you!!!

    The owner of the hostel is really kind and gives very nice recommendations for what to see in Jeonju and especially what restaurants to go to. There is self service breakfast where you can make your own eggs, toast and have tea, juice or coffee. You can also do laundry (washer and dryer) for a small fee. Hostel location is walking distance from all major attractions in Jeonju. Overall great location, nice hostel, and perfect host.

    The room and hostel were clean and free of mosquitoes. It’s the cleanest hostel I’ve visited in Korea! I believe for solo travelers and budget travelers this is one of the best options in this city. It’s also smoke free which we really appreciated! It takes around 30-60 minutes by car to 마이산, which I highly recommend visiting if you have a car.
