Stayed one night during the week.When I went in to check in, the female ownerI asked why I couldn't contact him by phone.I was interrogated without even knowing what was going on.The point is that the room I reserved was given to a group of children.There is no such room.So I was going to tell them to cancel and book another accommodation.They say they tried to contact you.I was never contacted.In the end, since the room I originally reserved was not available, I was told to use an ondol room.When I refused, they gave it to a group of children.They gave me the room I originally reserved.The accommodation is open from 5:30 a.m. due to groups of children.I can't sleep well because of the chaotic atmosphere.I stayed one night very tired.I don't understand why this accommodation has such a high rating.The female boss was not good at allocating rooms.Why are you interrogating the customer?The male boss seems to be a good person,The dogs at the accommodation are pretty, so I'm leaving two stars instead of one.

The guesthouse owner is the most friendly lady, and her tiny dog candy is so cute.The breakfast is amazing, eggs and toast as well as homemade soup.The dorm beds are good, a bit hard but that’s everywhere in korea. She provided us with electric blankets when it was cold. The showers are a bit weird they are shared locker room style showers but it’s manageable if you take turns. The dorm beds don’t creak when you move which is amazing. I had a great sleep thereIt is also very close to everything in Gyeongju.Even though it’s not a very social hostel, I made friends with the girls in my room who were all very friendly
