Place has a homey vibe and delivers on the basics of comfort and cleanliness. Host Panda Mom even took the initiative to message me to ask what time I am arriving and was responsive to my every message. Had a good stay that I ended up extending for one more night. It is located on the 3rd floor of a building that is close to busy streets for food and shopping.

A great place! I was in Gwanju unfortunately during a massive heat wave (40 degrees), and so I didn't see too much of the city, but the hostel was a great place to hunker down in with the AC on. I was the only one in my room which was nice, but the beds have curtains, too. The bathroom was huge. Breakfast was really nice, a very convenient self-serve, which I love because it takes the pressure off of a set time. If you wake up at 2am or 2pm, you can still have breakfast. Very thoughtful. Coffee and tea available, too. Lots of towels. Lockers. A big desk. Just a great place all around.

There are many great restaurants and things to do in the area! The hotel and room were so clean and comfortable. The futuristic feel to the hotel definitely made it feel like it should be a ☆☆☆☆☆ hotel. If this is an option on your list, just book it! You won't regret it.

The location was great, near to many bus stops and subway station. One pitfall during my stay was the fact that the reception was often empty. So, I had to solve a problem speaking with the lady of the cafe beside. She didn't speak english, but tried her best to help me. I am very grateful for her. The internet was good, the shower was hot and the Kitchen had all the utensils I needed.

    I met the host once during my stay. He was kind and nice. And he was able to explain to the taxi driver how to get to there when the taxi driver didn't know. I didn't have the breakfast. I felt uncomfortable going down to the porch where I was advised it would be served. There was stuff left there for days.

    We really enjoyed our stay a lot. As we traveled in off-season, the owners even upgraded our room without any extra cost! The owner was very kind and helpful; nice breakfast was made and we were able to put our bags in the accommodation before we could check into our room. The accommodation was also only about a 20 minute walk from the archives and culture center of Gwangju, and really close to the cute Penguin village!

    Prior to the Holiday Inn I stayed at a 4-star hotel in Seoul and a 3-star in Suwon, and based on the overall experience this is my favourite hotel to date!🤩 The staff were friendly and informative upon check-in, the room was superb and had everything I needed and more. It was the only hotel I've stayed in so far that has face cloths (flannels). I loved the art work and self-playing piano in the lobby, as well as the available eateries. So impressed with this hotel!
