This is a delightful guesthouse in the middle of Gwangju. It’s spotlessly clean and very comfortable, with a small kitchen and breakfast provided. The owners are super friendly and kind too. The location is great and very quiet. Thoroughly recommend this place to anyone in Gwangju.

    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!
