Comfortable stay in a quiet neighborhood. While it may be a bit out from the center of the city, it's only a short walk from the coast and plenty of restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay again for a few nights in Jeju-si.

The room is cozy and comfortable and the staffs are nice. I also like the location as it is very near to the bus stop which different lines of buses will stop by.

Thank you for the comment. But little wrong information. 1 from the closest bus stop. 5km from Jeju airport and 1.5 km from downtown.

Excellent English-speaking staff & good breakfast
Location good for bus to Seongsan-ri and for street full of eateries. Very helpful staff and the best thing was the fact that breakfast supplies were topped up and plentiful - best range we've had in 2 weeks of traveling in Korea. There was salad, some sort of sliced meat, eggs, the usual strawberry jam and white bread for toasting and even quite good coffee - and cheese slices. The breakfast room behind the receptionist is very odd but actually comfortable! We didn't like the black walls of the bedroom and long to be able to see out of a window one day but the room itself was good and clean and the bathrooom excellent - probably the best we've found.

I am sorry about that you didn't see cereal and milk. We always have cereal and milk. They are right between salad and jam. Anyway thank you for the comment.

Nice budget stay in Jeju with great breakfast.
Even though this guesthouse was in Jeju city you had a good commuting access to everywhere in town and intercity bus station. The breakfast was great, eggs and salads with ham and/or cheese for your toasts. A good budget accomodation while staying on the island. A lot of restaurants around too. The staff was superfriendly and helpful when it came to public transportation.

Good Hotel
Self-cook breakfast was great. The hotel located nearby the main street and bus station. The neighbor is good with delicious see food restaurant. Owner is quite friendly. However, there is no water, no toothbrush or toothpaste. The room is clean but toilet is smelly.

Cozy and clean hostel!
It was my first time visiting Jeju Island but I had a great time and stay in this Hotel. The room I stayed in is very cozy (good for 1-2 persons) and clean. Their Wifi is very good and they have Cable TV. I stayed here for a week and its location is very convenient for a traveler/explorer like me. A convenience store (711) is just right across the street. It is a few steps to a bus stop; the airport is just 15-20 minutes away; and there's a 24-hr coin laundry just beside it! I was able to pack fresh laundered clothes going to my next destination, and for me, this is a big plus! There's a street, about two blocks away, where restaurants are located. I already have my trip planned and got the tourist bus information at the airport. I was not able to take the free breakfast (since it starts at 8 AM and I usually leave around 6 or 7AM) until my sixth day in the hostel. When I spoke with the manager, she told me about the popular and must-try food in Jeju. She speaks very good English and it is very easy to have a conversation with her. For all the travelers like me who wanted to enjoy their stay and exploration of Jeju Island without "breaking the bank", I definitely recommend this place.

Basic (but excellent) spot to stay
Basic room but it had all the necessities. Breakfast was great, staff were incredibly helpful. Not a super exciting location but there were lots of good restaurants around and it was quiet at night. Super easy to get to by bus, taxi, or even walking from City Hall bus stop (~20 minutes). Stayed for 3 nights. Would definitely stay again.

Clean and cozy
Near to the airport, it only costs around W6000 by taxi. Near to a bus stop and 7-11. Conveniently located. Stylish reception and common area. Room clean and neat. Breakfast provided before 10:30am. Nice and friendly staff. Everything is good.

Best customer service and comfortable!
Hostel Maro is wonderful when it comes to customer service. Very informative and helpful! They were so kind to us and even suggested great places to eat and visit. Even printed a map for us and explained thoroughly. The rooms were exactly what we imagined. Very clean and comfortable. The location is perfect. Literally across from the hostel is 7eleven where you can get your midnight munchies. Bus stops are only few minutes walking distance. Great place! Loved the hostel. Great people! Thanks for everything.

Perfect place to stay!
Top to bottom a great stay. The family who runs this place is lovely, and she speaks excellent English which was so helpful in figuring out what to do and how to get there. Located along the tourist bus line 701, the location doesn't appear that great at first, but really is! The only thing I would change is to add a bedside lamp for reading/lower light. Included a nice breakfast where you can make your own eggs! Good place with great value.

가성비 좋은 숙소
가성비 아주 좋은 숙소입니다. 모텔 개조해서 호텔인척 하고 비싸게 받는 곳들보다 훨씬 좋습니다. 조식을 못먹어서 아쉽지만 재방문을 기약합니다. 제가 느낀 유일한 단점. 호텔로 지은 건물은 아니다보니 12시 넘어 객실 밖에서 심한 소음을 내는 몰상식한 사람들과 같은 층을 쓰게 되면 소음이 들어와서 힘듭니다.

おすすめ
空港からバス1本で約30分の距離(急行バスで20分)。 ホステルのすぐ前にはコンビニがあって便利です。 セルフチェックイン/アウトなので滞在中スタッフの方に会うことはありませんでした。 床暖房は夜にしか稼働しないようですが部屋にエアコンがあるので好きなように室温調節できてよかったです。 寝具やタオルは色落ちしていたり、擦り切れていたりして使用感がありますが掃除はきちんとされていて清潔感はありました。 まわりも静かで特に問題なく快適に過ごせました。

숙소도 청결하고 주차장, 아침식사 모두 만족했어요 게스트하우스인지 모르고 예약했는데, 아침 식사를 직접 준비하는 것도 재미있었고 여행지에서 처음해 본 경험이라서 즐거웠습니다. 주인장 경영방식이 좋게 느껴졌어요. 추천할만 한 숙소입니다
