Pros: - Accessible to all attractions (walkable) - Near bus stops - Dog nearby is very cute and we will visit him everyday - Donut shop nearby is really good and friendly - Opposite the road, there is 7-11, supermarket and snack shop, even a chicken truck at night - Heating is good Cons: - We don’t use the male toilet but there is a pee smell emitting from it - Staircase x2 (manageable) - One of the female toilet cubicle is always out of paper (two toilet available, 3 shower room) Will stay again if i visit gyeongju !!!

I absolutely loved the Gyeongju Blueboat! The kitchen/lobby was so nice, as were the bathrooms. The bedrooms were also super nice and my little bunk bed reminded me of like, Japanese train bed pods? Could draw the curtain, turn on the light, and have your own little cozy nook. Loved it! One thing I would have liked better is if the luggage storage under the beds actually locked; as it is, even if you turn the key the doors can just be opened.

Great location! Clean, comfy, convenient and close to most of the historical locations and tombs - most of which I was able to walk to or take a quick bus ride to. As a solo female solo backpacker, it was a great place to explore on my own as there were many local families and other travelers who had flocked to Gyeongju for the holidays. Lots of big old green trees and wonderful environment! I was even able to take an hour bus ride out to the sea through beautiful Korean back country and see the Tomb of King Munmu. I loved every bit of my stay in gyeong-ju! Having a place to just drop all of my things at such a central location as the Blueboat made my whole trip so much more easier. I might have even taken a quick trip down to Ulsan or Busan if I had had more time, as the main train station was only steps away! :)

Great location and helpful receptionist

Excellent location, stone's throw away from the train station. Receptionist was very helpful and friendly in giving advise on locations to visit and places to eat. Place was kept very clean and homey inside. But be aware that it is located on the 2nd floor without lifts, so you will need to lug your bags up one floor.

The location is good, right next to train station and around 20 min walk from intercity bus terminal. Wet market and lots of restaurants nearby. Staff were helpful, hostel was resourceful, with even a file for restaurants and famous dishes with both Korean and English. Breakfast was great, esp when there's a self help station for frying eggs. Clean room and washroom. Totally no complaints. Could be even better if there's stronger ventilation for bath area, for it was very wet during peak hours, or even the next morning. Overall an enjoyable stay, would definitely return in our next Gyeongju trip. :)

Amazing stay!

The hostel is amazing. Great, quiet vibe with an amazing staff that is very knowledgeable about the area, so they will and are definitely willing to help you out figure out your plans for visit. The only downside was that I could hear the people in the hall when I was sleeping near the hallway. But, I was able to move beds the next night. Other than that, the bathroom and kitchen are really clean and everything about the stay was great!!

One of the best hostels ever

This is one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. The girl on the front desk was amazing, really helpful and did my laundry for me. The room was excellent. The beds are very comfortable and each has a shade you can pull down for extra privacy. There's two powerpoints at each bed and a little shelf for your laptop or tablet. The hostel is super clean, there's toiletries in the bathrooms and the breakfast is excellent with cereal, eggs, toast, milk, juice, coffee, tea and even chocolate syrup.

Gut gelegen, um zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten zu gelangen. Der Anapji Pond ist in Laufnähe, der Bus zum Tempel und Seokguram Grotte gegenüber. Die Managerin ist wahnsinnig nett und spricht augh halbwegs Englisch. Sie hilft mit allen Tipps. Die Zimmer sind Hostel Standard für den Preis. In die Jahre gekommene Stockbetten, aber bequeme Matratzen. Die klimaanlage/Heizung geht an und aus. Wer sensibel schläft und keine Oropax hat wird unglücklich werden. Küche ist super. Sehr sauber und modern. Frühstück war auch absolut in Ordnung.

慶州駅から歩いて3分程度

慶州旅行を考えている方に、ぜひ到着駅は高速列車が止まる新慶州駅ではなく昔からある慶州駅をお勧めします(帰りは、新慶州駅でも良いと思いますが)。慶州駅からゲストハウスは歩いて5分以内で、横断歩道を渡る必要もありません(多くの方が間違えて渡ってしまうと聞いたので)。以前アメリカのゲストハウスに泊まったことがありますが、それに比べるとはるかによく整備されて、静かで、綺麗なゲストハウスでした。女性にも安心です。従業員の対応も申し分ありませんでした。また慶州に行くチャンスがあれば泊りたいと思っています。

慶州駅より徒歩2分、清潔な宿

土足禁止だったり、パウダールームの使用後は片付けをするよう張り紙があったり、抜け毛を掃除する為のハンディ型掃除機が常備してあったりします。その効果もあり、館内はとても清潔。4人用の女性ドミトリーを利用しましたが、就寝時寒ければ電気マットを敷いてくれているのでコンセントをさせば快適に眠れます。(11月あたまに利用しましたが、まだ使用しないと寝れないほど寒くはなかったです)スタッフもとても親切。仏国寺行きのバス停は道を挟んだ向かい側、良洞民族マウル行き203番のバス停は慶州駅の前にあり、どちらも宿からとても近くて便利でした。
