"My family and I had a WONDERFUL stay at Yettle Hanok. Jung and his wife were lovely hosts who welcomed us, showed us a map so we could get our bearings and even offered suggested activities for the day so that we would be able to experience all the sights and experiences. We rented the entire home and found it be spacious, comfortable and clean. It was such a unique experience to stay in a traditional hanok-style home. The home is walking distance to the Gyeongju National Museum and a bus stop...
"If you would like a unique Han-oke (Korean traditional house) experience in the Gyeongju area, this is the place to be! It is a bit away from the tourist sites so it's more relaxing and easy to park your car. I highly recommend this place for anyone who is looking for clean and convenient place to stay.

"The location is good. The accomodation itself was great. The room and bathroom new, comfortable and practical. It looks like a traditional hanok but we wanted a bed and this option was great for us.

I went back at three and still no one was there. Another guest arrived and told us they had booked in a different platform and they were given...
"beautiful location/property. large spacious room and bath. good storage options. offered Hanbok as part of the stay (limited hours). staff was very accommodating showing us around and helping us with transportation options. very pleasant stay and experience. "

Breakfast is available... But if you see any leftovers out in the afternoon (without any signage) don't eat them! Apparently they're not there for you to eat but are actually sitting out waiting for breakfast the next day..."

"An excellent location near many attractions near by. So many choices of food and cafés, all excellent!
Because the hotel is located ny the street, it may be noisy at times but once you fall asleep, i slept through. Very easily accessable to public transportation. I would strongly recommend this hotel. "
"Very comfortable , clean hotel in a very convenient location. Comfortable beds, large bathroom with shower and large tub. Good breakfast and very attentive staff. Secure lockers to leave luggage if not leaving the area at check-out time. Free bottles of cold water for the room and to take out during the day. Would definitely stay again."
