Location fantastic, grounds beautiful and room simple but no complaints.
Pros:

We only stayed 1 night for the experience, but we couldn't have asked for a better place. The location was within walking distance of many historical sites, eateries and shopping areas. For ₩1000 you could by food and feed the koi in the pond, they also had Hanbok to try on (we didn't do this, but saw others do so)
At night is where the real beauty comes alive. The lighting around the ground as been placed to perfectly highlight the features of the building and gardens, which really adds to the charm.
As mentioned, the room itself was simple, but it's exactly what we expected and booked this location for. Sleeping on the floor is not for everyone, but having done it in the past, we had no issues with it. The bathroom was basic, but but clean and had everything we needed.
The only real thing to note is that toilet paper goes into the bin and not the toilet. However after getting over the initial "culture shock", it was totally fine and added to part of the experience

Pros:

Soggiorno bellissimo in una struttura affascinante, silenziosa e confortevole. Gli edifici in autentico stile hanok sono meravigliosi e regalano un’atmosfera tradizionale davvero suggestiva. È stata un’esperienza divertente e particolare anche dormire sul tipico materasso coreano a terra, un modo originale per immergersi nella cultura locale. Un soggiorno piacevole e diverso dal solito, assolutamente da consigliare!

Cons:

L’unica cosa un po’ insolita è stata la doccia: un semplice doccino sopra il lavandino, senza un vero e proprio box doccia. Una soluzione un po’ spartana, ma comunque accettabile per una sola notte.

Pros:

Le cadre de l'hôtel est sublime. L'impression de nuit traditionnelle en hanok fonctionne à merveille. Nous avons adoré l'établissement. Le personnel était accueillant. La chambre est suffisamment spacieuse.

Cons:

Oreillers durs en billes, impossible de dormir avec. Futons très fins.

Pros:

L'esperienza di dormire secondo le usanze tradizionali

Cons:

Le pareti che dividono le stanze sono molto sottili e i tappi per le orecchie sono consigliati per dormire

Teleurstellende hanokervaring door slechte hygiëne en gebrekkige voorzieningen
Pros:

Locatie met de uitstraling

Cons:

De futons waar je op slaapt, zijn veel te dun en lijken meer op een opgevouwen dekbed. Als je een extra futon vraagt, moet je daar ook nog voor betalen.
De douche-/wc-ruimte stonk enorm naar een combinatie van chloor en putlucht. In ons geval hing de douchekop precies tussen de spiegel, de wasbak en de wc-pot in. Heel vreemd douchen op deze manier: half staand boven de wasbak. Bovendien loopt het putje niet goed door, waardoor letterlijk alles zeiknat wordt, maar ook door de manier waarop je moet douchen.
Ik heb de schoonmaaksters twee ochtenden de andere kamers zien schoonmaken. Daarbij zag ik niet dat ze de kussenslopen of dekbedovertrekken verschoonden. Alleen de futons en handdoeken werden vervangen. Toen ik dit navroeg bij de receptie, vertelde de dame dat ik me geen zorgen hoefde te maken. Nou, dat doe ik dus wél! Het idee dat ik op hetzelfde kussen moet slapenals al mijn voorgangers vind ik ontzettend vies, zeker als ik zelf netjes mijn schoenen voor de deur moet uittrekken.
Helaas had ik me enorm verheugd op deze locatie. Erg jammer dat het zo tegenvalt. Voor wie een hanokervaring wil, zou ik aanraden een andere accommodatie te kiezen. Alleen de ligging is gunstig, maar verder houdt het wat mij betreft op.

Near but uncomfortable.
Pros:

It was clean and it is very close to the sightseeings. The bathroom was amazing!

Cons:

It was not very comfortable to sleep. The beds and the floor were very uncomfortable. It says it has a TV but you have to pay to watch the TV. When we were looking for a place to stay, we thought of having a TV to watch a movie to end our day after seeing different attractions but you had to pay to watch, moreover, you cannot share screen so the TV was useless.

Vraiment très bien.
Pros:

Le cadre, les habits traditionnels a disposition gratuitement, l'emplacement, la propreté

Cons:

Les futons pourraient être plus épais mais ca fait partie de la découverte. Pas grand chose a dire de mal !

Pros:

Si tratta di un Hanok davvero bello. Sembra di entrare in un altra dimensione.

Cons:

La pulizia poteva essere migliore e non c'era scritto che la nostra camera sarebbe stata al primo piano (camera per 4 )
