- poor WiFi in the room, worked well only near the door and in the common room - very small room, no space for your baggage and clothes - annoying sheeting, it wasn’t nice in touch and was falling off the mattress - poor location, it’s far to get anywhere - even though we love cats, in some places it stinked really bad with cat pee - breakfast time was really short, only 8:00-9:00 am, also we needed to check out earlier our last day and the day before we asked if we could eat our breakfast 10 mins earlier and it wasn’t possible - a lot of things that are free in other places here aren’t - you have to pay for coffee to breakfast, for disposable bath accessories - the staff wasn’t really nice, we didn’t feel welcome

- lots of cats - free laundry - free, simple, but tasty breakfast - more cats - great, cozy common rooms: microwave, instant ramen machine, purified water, foot massager!! - nice cafe on the 1st floor - quiet, cozy place

My room was a bit small so it was not easy to move about with my luggage, but I didn't mind too much.

Although not in the city centre, the hostel is close to the train station and the bus terminal, which is extremely convenient. The bus to Hahoe Maeul is also close by (10/15mins' walk), it was nice to be away from the noise of the city and surrounded by books. The owner and the staff were friendly (some of the cats as well!), and breakfast was good – I enjoyed my time there.

About 5km away from the city centre. You need to take bus, taxi to get there.

I like the nature atmosphere, the homestay is very close to Andong Station (1km). The host is very nice.

The location is kind of out of the way and there is nothing nearby. About 15 min walk to train station which is itself not near downtown

Really cool place, large room (family room), nicely decorated, cats!, nice cafe, comfy beds

If you have cat allergies it is not the best option.

The bed is not comfy. The is a plastic layer underneath and bed are hard.

Cafe and facilities are good. Near the Andong station. Friendly staff. Clean as well.

The atmosphere in the whole guest house is so warm and welcoming and the library on the firts floor, which also functions as a caffe, was very lively. Our room was very spacious and had all needed and more, including big windows overseeing the panorama outside. It is a lovely place I would recommend for all, who want an engaging and warm stay!

As other reviews mention, the cafe area does smell of cats (litter box+cat food) which I didn't have an issue with because I knew to expect it (and theres a lot of cats so smell makes sense). On my second day I did notice the smell of cat urine in the cafe area, which was a shame because it made sitting there very difficult.

The location isn't the best, its a bit far from bus stops that actually get you around the city, and it was pretty far from downtown. I did struggle finding restaurants to eat at alone close to the hostel. On the other hand, the views of the countryside were beautiful, and I did enjoy the break from the city. The breakfast was good, though its from 08:00-09:00 so you have to be up early. The sleeping area is fine smells wise because its closed off from the cats. The accommodations are also fine, and I was pleasantly surprised by the japanese toilets.

The location was far from the city centre and hard to get food around this area. It was also quite a walk into the hostel from the bus terminal or bus stops so it was hard to drag the heavy luggage. The roads in are dark at night so get back before the sun sets. The room was a little too small with my big luggage. The wifi on the accommodation floors weren’t secure wifi too

The cute cats on the first floor and the washing machine on the third floor

Nothing in particular.

The hostel is located at walking distance from the bus station and train station (and tourist office), but it is twenty minutes by bus from Andong downtown. The dormitory I had was clean and comfortable (showers and toilets separate). Good bed. Free breakfast. It is also a café-bookshop, where several cats are hanging around. Due to bad weather, I could not enjoy the outside facilities.

The inevitable downside to the location is that it's far from the city centre, but it's still a good choice if you're exploring by bus. In Andong, you're either in the city centre or you're well placed for the bus terminal. Not both. The 11pm curfew was strange, but didn't bother me much. There are limited eating options in the vicinity, though a convenience store isn't far away. I was asked to leave my room at 9.30am for room cleaning on one occasion, despite check out being at noon, and there being a sign saying you can stay in the room for even longer than noon if you like. No explanation was given to me. Sometimes I felt like the attitude was a bit odd. When I arrived there was a pot of tea saying "Welcome Drink - Help yourself" or something very similar (forgot exact wording). To be sure, I asked owner if I could help myself to a cup. He reluctantly said yes, but then came (multiple times) to tell me that next time I should purchase something from the cafe.

Breakfast was very good. Rooms were comfortable with the room having its own bathroom. Rooms were kept clean. Around 1km from the bus terminal. This is especially handy because in Andong, both the intercity buses and the local Andong buses stop at the same terminal. So you're centrally placed for all these buses.

I had a problem with the cafe area downstairs where they serve the breakfast. There are so many cars and cat hair is everywhere! It smells like cat litters, too. I guess there’s no health code in Korea? I don’t think the place is suitable for serving food in my opinion. If you are allergic to cats, definitely don’t forget to take allergy medicine. Staff are too busy running the cafe and don’t care much about guest house guests.

They might have upgraded my room. I stayed at their family room and the room was like a studio apartment! It was big and nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable. The room itself was very nice and clean. Walking distance from the train and bus station. It’s far from anything else but it worked out as a good base.

There isn't any luggage storage, so you have 5o leave tour bag in thr lockers at the bus terminal. Staff aren't so helpful with information as they always seemed busy.

Great facilities in the dorm. Free cup of black tea on arrival!

Clean and quirky being a cat cafe hostel. But as a guest you have to buy a beverage to be in the cafe and not welcomed if you sit in the cafe before 8am.

Nothing!

The guesthouse is located in the perfect spot to use it as a base point to visit Hahoe village as it is at walkable distance from the train station and the bus terminal. The ground floor is a nice cat café full with books. It is really cozy and welcoming. Here they serve the included breakfast which features a lot of options. The room was very spacious, comfortable, and equipped with literally everything you might need including all toiletries. They let you use the laundry free of charge.
