Second Holmes

I’d recommend this guesthouse for the value. My double room had its own shower, and the bed was very comfortable. There’s a free washer near the lounge. The dryer costs extra, though you can hang clothes on the drying lines on the roof. Breakfast was pretty basic, just eggs and toast you make yourself, but that was fine.

This was a frustrating stay. I arrived to check in at 8 pm and reception was closed, with no notice about self check-in. My luggage was locked in the storage room, so I had to ask another guest to get it back, then carry it up to the fourth floor because there’s no elevator. The room had no wifi. When we called, nobody spoke English, and when I asked for a room with wifi, she hung up. Very impolite. Later we happened to meet a staff member, but we struggled to communicate. At one point she ignored me, and I had to chase after her before finally getting a better room. I appreciated that they helped in the end, but I wouldn’t recommend this place.

There are all kinds of food spots, bars, shops, and markets nearby, and the kitchen facilities are excellent. It’s a very cheap stay, right by City Hall, with easy bus trips around Jejudo from the stop across the street. It’s also convenient for the airport. The place was spotless, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

The lounge is spacious, and the place was clean and well organized. It’s close to a couple of bus stops and roughly a 20 minute walk from the central bus station. The only trouble was the wifi in my room. The signal wasn’t working properly, so I had to go to the lounge for better reception.
