Blueboat Hostel Jeonju

The location is perfect. Easy to get to from the bus terminal, walking distance to hanok village and all surrounding areas. Hostel has an elevator. The whole place was incredibly well kept, looked like new, smelled very nice and was super clean. Everything spot clean and organized. The bathrooms had overhead baskets to put your things into and not get them wet. There are additional shelves outside the shower booths too. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash provided. Hair dryer and hair straightener too. There were even reproductors playing music in the bathroom area. The hallways are cozy and clean. Rooms itself have lockable space for your luggage under the bed but also space around the beds for bigger sized ones. You won't have troubles with multiple suitcases. Beds have separated lights, good screen to shield the whole bed from others and comfortable big mattress. The whole room has a working AC as well as window. The kitchen has literary everything you might need and even smelled nice! Check-in and checkout was very easy. You get your keys, towels, slippers and bag to put your things into if you wish once you go to the shower. You can leave your things there after checkout if you have later departure time too. I cannot recommend this place enough. I stayed at multiple places across Korea but this is by far the best I've been to.

Taxi fare is KRW6,000 from Jeonju Intercity Bus Terminal to Blueboat Hostel, rather near. Clean and organized hostel. Bed is firm. The owner responds fast to any request for help and happily share info on travel. Hostel is within walking distance to Jeonju Hanok Village & Nambu Market. There is also a shopping place nearby where there is a Daiso store. Ideal place to stay for budget traveller.

I only stayed a night so I did not have time to familiarise myself well with the neighbourhood. Location-wise, I was able to walk to the Hanok Village 10-15minutes, and the bus stop to the train station is located just across. The dorm room was nice and comfy, bed was good and firm with a privacy roll-up blind, a/c and Wifi worked well. The bathrooms were well-equipped and very clean. Kitchenette/common area was also very clean and fully-equipped, did not use other than taking drinking water from the dispenser. Met one of the hosts, she was very helpful with my check-out time and offered assistance.

10/10 fantastic!!! Would recommend to ANYONE! So much so that we are staying in the Blueboat Hostel in Gyeongju as well! Rooms super comfortable and private, bathrooms immaculate, super clean all over and communal area lovely. We came out of season so it was VERY quiet but that was just perfect for us. Super close to the Hanok village (just a 5-10 minute walk up the road) and close to food places and shops.

The sleepingpods were very comfortable and you had enough space to store your stuff. It is at a good location to visit jeonju. Also the lady from the hostel was very friendly and suggested me how to get to Busan the easiest way!
