Hotel Analysis
Based on 2 sites · 155 reviews
Located at the foot of Jirisan Mountain in Gurye, this accommodation is known to travelers who prioritize value for money and hot spring water over luxurious facilities. Guests consistently respond positively to the spacious rooms and warm ondol (heated) floors.
The biggest advantage is the hot spring water available directly in the rooms. Reviews frequently mention strong water pressure and high-quality water, making it suitable for relieving fatigue after travel. The kindness of the owner and the accessibility to nearby tourist spots like Sansuyu Village are also frequently noted.
However, opinions on the aging facilities are clear. Some reviews express disappointment regarding bathroom mold or room cleanliness. It is better to approach this as a practical place to stay, wash up, and rest during a trip to Jirisan rather than expecting modern hotel services.
