I booked a twin room to myself and it was great. Very comfortable and convenient. Easy to Check in. The keys were left on the desk and I let myself in. Perhaps lacks a bit of atmosphere but that may be due to Trumps visit going on when I was there. I also just went to sleep so this didn’t bother me. I had to leave early so I wasn’t able to sample breakfast which unfortunately started at 8am just after I left.

Pros: - Accessible to all attractions (walkable) - Near bus stops - Dog nearby is very cute and we will visit him everyday - Donut shop nearby is really good and friendly - Opposite the road, there is 7-11, supermarket and snack shop, even a chicken truck at night - Heating is good Cons: - We don’t use the male toilet but there is a pee smell emitting from it - Staircase x2 (manageable) - One of the female toilet cubicle is always out of paper (two toilet available, 3 shower room) Will stay again if i visit gyeongju !!!

セルフチェインに応じていただいたのですが、他の方が間違えて私のメモを持っていかれ私はどのように対応したらいいのかわからなかった。そのように困り事があった時どうしたらいいのかわからなかったです。 また、キッチンは綺麗でしたが、共有のシャワールームやトイレにもう少し配慮が欲しいと思いました。とても使いにくかったです。 でもドミトリーなのにカーテンがあり個室のように過ごせたことはとてもよかったです。

More than perfect

(구)경주역과 매우 가깝습니다. 요즘 핫한 곳들과는 약간 거리가 있지만 도보로 이동가능합니다. 청결하고 편리합니다. 빵과 커피, 계란 등이 포함된 아침식사도 제공해주십니다. 여름휴가기간이라 그런지 유럽친구들이 손님중 과반을 차지하고 있어 유럽 여행온 듯한 느낌도 받을 수 있습니다^^ 조금 거리가 있긴 하지만 근처에 무료주차장도 있습니다. 1층에서 사장님 가족이 운영하는 맛난 빵집도 있습니다. 매우 만족스러운 숙박이었습니다. 감사합니다!

I absolutely loved the Gyeongju Blueboat! The kitchen/lobby was so nice, as were the bathrooms. The bedrooms were also super nice and my little bunk bed reminded me of like, Japanese train bed pods? Could draw the curtain, turn on the light, and have your own little cozy nook. Loved it! One thing I would have liked better is if the luggage storage under the beds actually locked; as it is, even if you turn the key the doors can just be opened.
