“Stay 148 delivers an authentic hanok experience surprisingly close to modern Seoul, a brief walk from the airport bus and Gyeongbokgung Palace. The beautiful wooden structure centers around a charming courtyard, making it easy to slip away from the city. I found the reasonable price impressive for such a well-situated and atmospheric stay.”
