Pros +
- Very clean and the owner was very nice.
- The owner was extremely kind and helpful. He gave me many suggestions of activities and places to eat. The place is also very clean and well located making it easy to do all activities.
- The room and kitchen were sparkling clean. Breakfast was provided, hot coffee, juices, toast, and light snacks in the fridge. The owner speaks English and is knowledgeable. A well-taken care of stay.
Cons -
- towels in the bathroom and hand towels only, this does appear to be the norm in guest houses. if you like something bigger, best to pack one to use.
- Even though we had a wonderful trip to Gangneung and loved the host and kitchen, we wouldn’t stay here again purely because of the room. The beds are a futon style but as the floor is not tatami (or maybe just a different one to what we are used to?) it’s very hard and so our backs were absolutely shot after 3 nights stay. I think you would be fine for maximum 2 nights… but not more. There is not anywhere to sit in your room comfortably, and The bathroom also is very small and a wet room style, so we weren’t super comfortable.However, that was just a personal preference and I still 10/10 recommend staying if you’re passing through Gangneung for a short trip.
- Absence of a chair or seat or two in the room. I get it though, that the traditional experience is no chairs.

Beautifully presented, aesthetically pleasing, clean (unbelievably clean) very well appointed, nothing left to chance, if you want it the owner will provide. Location perfect as its close to main road for public transport, only 15 min walk from Gangneung Station (KTX & ITX Trains). Also, short distance (across main road) from an amazing market for food etc. Owner is an encyclopedia on local and national information. If he gives you advise about the area, take heed as he knows. Owner saved me time and money on forward travel and travel around Gangneung. Very interesting, enjoyable young man that has a lot of passion for the area. Really liked this place and it set the mood for my ongoing travels around South Korea. Yes, would return here in a heartbeat.
A fantastic host, plenty of information provided on check in about what to do around the area. Very helpful, ordered a taxi for us on check out. Loved the little Halloween decorations around the garden. Was a little unsure if I’d be able to get off the futon in the morning, it was actually really comfy and my body managed to get up no problem.
towels in the bathroom and hand towels only, this does appear to be the norm in guest houses. if you like something bigger, best to pack one to use.
A lovely host who helped me plan my days in Gangneung fantastically with great recommendations for food and activities.Location is excellent, close to bus stops and walking distance from the markets.The room itself is simple and very comfortable!
The host is the star of the show in this guest house! He’s absolutely amazing and will make your stay so much easier. Gives heaps of advice on where to go in Gangneung, logistics and tips. The property kitchen is all set up and so clean, with eggs and bread for breakfast. As well as coffee (also provides soy milk if you’re plant based!) and orange juice - all included in your accommodation cost! Wi-Fi is great, no issues. Pretty close and easy to get to things in town, short trip on bus from the train station.

Very sweet small vintage cottage feel with modern amenities. Exceptionally clean, and full of things we needed to feel at home. Great shower/wc! The host and his father were so welcoming and ready to help with information. Very considerate of their guests. I was blown away by their attentiveness.
Absence of a chair or seat or two in the room. I get it though, that the traditional experience is no chairs.
Beautiful house, very nice and clean room, wonderful host Soon, who can give any advice needed. Great location too, not far from anything in town, quiet too (even though the Danoje festival was on, we did not hear a thing when we went to bed...by the way, it is a lovely festival and i had loads of fun). Anyway, a highly recommended place (may be next time i would not choose the futon beds as i am not used to it, but that's me ?). Loved the place!
Quiet and simple, sufficient facilities and in good quality. Host was friendly and explained the use of facilities well, approachable to request for more amenities. Also introduced places of interest and popular food around the area. Good suggestions for transport wise to help navigate the area better.
Slightly far from the train station (~20mins walk), hard to carry luggage while walking along the road.
Soon was an amazing host. He really helped me have an amazing time in Gangnueng. This property is so close to the traditional market which is brimming with good smells and things to try. Probably the nicest I’ve seen in Korea. You can also get a bus quite easily to the lake and beach areas. You can even get a coach to and from Serokasan mountain if you leave early enough!It’s a clean, quite place where you can make a nice breakfast or relax after a day seeing Gangnueng.
The facility is located in a residential area, but was quite close to bus stops. The breakfast is basically self catering and cleaning - some bread, jam, coffee. The kitchen area is very clean and well organized. Bedroom was warm in the wintertime (it was -15 C outside), although a bit cramped. You have to leave your shoes outside (in cold room), but the manager offered some device for warming and drying shoes.
The toilet & bathroom is one small room without heating. Its only heated when you leave the door open to bedroom. It seems there are also some plumbing issues that the manager complained to us (possibly the pipes are inadequate).
The host is exceptionally friendly, considerate, and helpful. The place is spotless. Interesting location near river and market. Soon's restaurant and transport recommendations were excellent.
All was good.
Super clean and central to the main market street. Soon, the host is a super nice guy who provided us with lots of information, a great breakfast and even booked us Bustickets to our next destination.
The host was super kind! They compiled a booklet with useful knowledge and compiled a list of restaurants and dishes to try in the area.Very clean and pretty house.Bonus: Freshly brewed coffee.
The host is very friendly and gave me a lot of suggestions and background history of the city. The house is beautifully fornisce with all the comforts in the common area as well as in the individual room.
Loved our stay here, would stay again. The host speaks excellent English and is very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and spacious with a comfortable bed, quiet air conditioning and good facilities. The location is close to the central market and within walking distance from the train station.
Hospitality from host, cleanliness of the house, location to local market & nice food, overall we had good experience.
Mattress is quite thin so we can feel the floor
The guesthouse was located very central and it was easy to catch a bus to everywhere around. The host was very kind and keen to help us find good and traditional food from the area. The breakfast was great too and the kitchen was stacked with everything we could possibly need.
Very clean and close to the inner city.
Rooms are a bit small.
