hanok
has a charming courtyard garden, and the English- speaking
owners (who have an adorable shaggy dog, Ssari) are helpful hosts. It's a delightful place

rooms are small, bathrooms are cramped (but modern),
and you sleep on a

more expensive rooms, the computers, TV lounge, washing machine and kitchen facilities
are all shared. They also rent out a separate
hanok
sleeping six for
