Clean and comfortable
We stayed for 3 nights over the holidays including Christmas. It’s a hostel so the amenities are spare but the place is clean and comfortable. Mattresses are very firm but it wasn’t a problem for us. Because we stayed for more than 2 nights we received fresh towels and water bottles every day. Check in was easy, we called ahead to let them know our check-in time in advance as they requested. There is not a fully staffed front desk so we needed to call to ask questions but almost everything we needed to know was in their check-in paper. Bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, and soap. Our room was Korean style so the floors are heated and the shower isn’t closed off from the rest of the bathroom (no stall or tub) but the water pressure was good. Our room also had a mini-fridge, TV with an HDMI port, and clothing rack with hangers. It was close to all the places we needed to be and there’s a convenience store right around the corner. Parking is free and they have their own lot. If you’re staying for multiple days you may want to let them know if you’ll be coming back after 9pm as they usually close the gate of the parking lot at that time. Overall a solid place to crash if you’re in Gwangju and looking for something simple and straightforward!

Great stay
Super clean and comfortable and well located near Art Street and the Asia Culture Centre. Also very close to the subway and bus transportation. There is also a good, cheap restaurant across the street. If you are expecting breakfast (toast and coffee), I would suggest you check with the hotel as I was told it's only served on weekends.

Incredibly Satisfied
I wanted a place to stay with 3 of my friends. The place was incredibly clean and comfortable. The staff was super helpful and they created an amazing breakfast in the morning for all of us with fresh fruit, eggs, toast, cereal, coffee and juice. It was a great surprise for the price we paid. I'm definitely saving this location for future visits to Gwangju!

Improvements needed
Our room ran out of hot water suddenly at around 11pm, and four out of six plug sockets are not functioning... The hot water was back the next day but we could only use two plugs throughout the four nights of stay. Regardless of these situations, the room is clean and pretty spacious. Location is awesome, too. The staff are nice and helpful.

設施簡陋，令人失望
櫃檯經常沒有人，溝通困難，住宿雖然尚算整潔，但浴室水喉漏水，告知並拍照給櫃檯，住了四晚，還是沒有改善及維修，整個浴室濕漉漉一片。房間內寬闊，但竟然一張椅子也沒有，每天提供的兩支水，擺放位置奇怪，第一天連毛巾放在玄關地上，第二橫放小雪櫃，把門也給迫開了，我放了水果在內，幸好天氣凍，否則一定給弄壞。第三天才放回正常位置，雪櫃門的位置。 另一房間，雪櫃的插頭是壞。熱水不穩定，整體來講，下次不會入住了。
