Seoro Hanok Stay — Hotel in Jeonju-si

I preface this review by saying that this was the first time we had stayed in a hanok. So perhaps our expectations were unrealistic. ||||We booked the family room with private bath which was one of the largest rooms..

So imagine our shock when we first walked into the room. It was not more than 150 sq feet at most and it was freezing! So after some difficult sign language and broken English and Korean exchanged, it seemed that we had been assigned the right room. Tiny but pricey!

한 달 전 중학교 친구들과 같이 전주 한옥마을 안에 있는 '서로'라는 멋진 한옥 게스트하우스에서 밤을 새우며 이야기를 나누었습니다. 마당 여기저기 주인장의 손길이 닿아있는 예쁜 나무들과 태양열 자가발전기 등이 어린이들만의 눈길을 사로잡는 것이 아니었습니다. 동심으로 돌아가서 사십 중반인 저희들도 이용을 해보고.....||더욱 좋았던 것은 깔끔하고 사각사각한 이불과 그윽한 나무냄새나는 방이었습니다. 가족들과 와도 좋고, 연인과 와도 좋고, 특히 친구들과 오면 더 좋을 이곳....||||한 가지 팁....서로에서 대략 50미터 쯤 나오면 누각 비슷한 곳이 있습니다. 이야기 나누고 싶은 친구들과 술 한 잔 기울이면서 서로를 알아갈 수 있는 곳이 바로 가까이에 있더라구요. 달빛을 받으면서 이야기를 나누는...
