(or whirlwind weekend pt.2)
Saturday
Kim woke up really early and went to fetch her Cyndi (from the states) who is travelling in asia and stopped in seoul for the weekend. i slept through her arrival and woke just before eleven.
since we'd gotten in pretty late the night before i didn't really get a chance to 'take in' our guest house but i did in the morning. i let the girls sleep a little longer and got up to make myself a cup o' joe and some toast - included in the 15,000 won/night we paid for the accomodation. which, by the way, is totally cheap - around 17 $ cdn.
it's like a hostel, but since we were three we got our own room instead of the 'dorm' style room that they also have... you can check out their website since i linked to it in part one of the trip. anyway, it's much nicer than a lot of hostels that i've stayed in and with breakfast to boot! the room was clean, the sheets were clean, there was a space heater in our room too, and air conditioning in the summer. we had a set of bunk beds and a double - which i ended up with for the trip! thanks girls!
our room at the guest house.
it was nice to have our own room to make a mess in! but it was strange that the floors weren't heated, and my toes paid for it! but it did force me to buy a pair of fuzzy 'slipper socks' - something i've been meaning to pick up for a while.
the guest house has all the amenities of any hostel i've been to, but it felt like a house instead of a hotel...
the living room - couch, tv, computer (with free high-speed)
the kitchen - with free coffee (probably the worst i've ever had, but coffee nonetheless), toast and jam in the morning...
loved this! fire prevention... where? what does this mean? don't make fires?
the front door. kim's guest house actually has a few buildings on the same block and we stayed in this one... sorry, forgot to take a shot of the original one...
the front gate (which locks) the house is in a walled off courtyard that has a nice table and chairs to sit on outside on a nice summer day...
it was a nice guest house and i would recommend it to anyone. stay tuned... more to come soon!
