Traditional style rooms at affordable prices. We had a wonderful stay at Dowon's. The A/C was cold which was important since it's middle of the summer, and the rooms were cozy and clean. The place had everything we needed and was also very close to the cultural village with tons of restaurants, cafes and shops. The host was also very friendly and helpful with information about the area. Definitely a recommended place to stay if you want a traditional Korean stay experience with all of the conveniences you need.

The guesthouse is located in Jeonju Art Village, which in my opinion is a more charming place than the main Hanok Village. The owner was kind enough to let me choose a room from those available - thank you! As a single occupant, I had plenty of space in the room for myself and my luggage. You sleep on a futon, so it's a different experience to a regular bed, but comfortable nonetheless. The bathroom is on the smaller side, but well equipped and with strong, hot water. Breakfast features fresh fruit, baked potatoes, eggs and toast with jam - it's really nice to eat it in the garden area. Drinking water and a fridge are available in the communal kitchen area. There's a bus stop close to the guesthouse, but you can easily walk to sights and restaurants in 10-20 minutes. Recommended!

Lovely shared kitchen, I'm sorry for not taking more advantage of. Very nice healthy breakfast of toast egg and fruit. Big court yard my daughter loved running around in. Convenient parking. There's a primary school next door and at 9am the kids assemble and there and school music was played, it was very faint and you could easily sleep though it just FYI but as a foreigner this really captured me, I remember being a child and doing this kind of school assembly at my primary school in rural Australia. Sometimes I felt like I was staying in the Korea of hundreds of years ago

maybe the garden and landscaping could use some work

A very basic/rustic place. Rooms have thin walls but considering I didn't hear a family with baby on one side yet talking couple through to the early hours of the morning on the other side, I guess it depends on the guests being considerate. Breakfast is light with some fruit, toast and hard boiled egg. The communal kitchen is always supplied with tea, coffee, hot and chilled water. Gorgeous pottery crockery to use. Washing machine can be used. I chose to sleep on the floor (traditional style) which was comfortable, heated floor and also had air-conditioning. Toiletries are provided. Bathroom is old but clean. (Paper to be placed in bin). Cute garden with seating. Close 5min walk to Hanock Village. The owner is very helpful and speaks a little English :) Based on my choosing to try this traditional style accommodation, I was very happy with my stay.

The host was very generous and made us great breakfast with homemade strawberry jam. The facility was clean, mostly quiet, and in a great location. We were the only residence in that night. He kept our luggage while we waited for our train until the evening, and offered to order us a taxi to the train station.

When going to a hanok stay, be aware it is less comfortable than a bed. We ordered the bigger room, which had 2 futon beds, and it was comfortable for us. We didn't ask for an extra futon bed, but I'm sure the owner would give us one extra if we asked. We also didn't notice that the floor heating was on (which is on us) and was really hot throughout the night. Luckely, the AC worked great. There is a school right next to the facility, and in the early morning hours, they put on some music for the kids. Didn't disturb us too much, but nice to know.

The owner was very kind from the start, explained us everything and where to go in the city. We got a room upgrade with was a really nice touch. The room itself was simple but we had everything we needed. There was A/C and floor heating as well. The futon was comfortable, even more comfortable than a real bed. We had a good night sleep. There was music coming from outside in the morning but it wasn't a tragedy. Breakfast started at 9am so the kids and the music didn't bother us at all. Breakfast was also simple but really good, especially with the strawberries. Overall it was a great stay and would come back any time in the future.

Nothing.

The owner is very helpful and friendly. Upon arrival, he will explain how to get to the most interesting places and also give good advice on local food. The breakfast is also nice. The rooms are traditional korean styled so there is not much but all u need. Just be sure it is what you're looking for. Most important for unawared travellers the bathroom including a shower at the sink is really small but that is something you also can find in normal modern hotels. The location is great as you can reach almost everything on foot.

We had to chase some mosquitoes, but you are nowhere protected from that ;-)

Very good location, walkable to the key tourist sites. Friendly and helpful owner (e.g. supplied maps). Sizeable common food storage, prep, consumption space. Nice garden with ample seating. While room is small, it has separate bath/shower, AC and wi-fi.

Not owner's fault, but my navigation app NAVER couldn't pinpoint and I had to park and then wander around to locate.

We loved getting the chance to stay in this traditional style guesthouse. The location in the Artist Village just outside of the Historic Hanok village (an easy 10 minute) walk away was perfect. The room was very cosy and clean and having the garden to relax in was lovely. We also especially loved the pottery available to for guests to use for breakfast. Our host could not have done more for us and it was a very easy and pleasant stay. We would recommend this to anyone.

Nothing

The best guest you could ask for. He took his time to explain everything as soon as I got there with a smile, he remembered my name for the whole stay and prepared such an amazing breakfast everyday with fresh fruit picked from the local market. The place is lovely, right in the center of the arts district, and 10 minutes away from the hanok village. Everything was clean, and the space feels paceful and relaxing. Would recommend to anyone going to Jeonju 100%
