Gil Pension to Gwaneumsa Temple in Jeju (Near Hallasan Mountain)

Thoroughly enjoyed my 1 night fuss-free stay to hike Hallasan the next day. Feels very homely because of the nice halmeoni owner. Pros: - very affordable - has a 10 min direct bus ride to the start of the trail (bus timings are infrequent, please check beforehand) - extremely well maintained and clean apartment - the nicest nicest nicest halmeoni ever! being inexperienced travellers, we reached the accommodation past 7pm with an empty stomach, no t-money card to take the public transport, and no korean number to order food delivery/take a cab. she was so worried and offered help. Cons: - a little inaccessible, recommended to take a cab to/fro instead - limited food options past 6/7pm, recommended to stock up before heading over to the accoms - haelmoni only speaks korean, thus might be a challenge for non-koreans Other Info: - basic amenities are provided (e.g. shampoo, bath towel, floor towel, water kettle) - bring your own toothbrush, toothpaste and body soap (a half-used bar soap is provided, but may not be too sanitary) - you can leave your luggage at the acomms after checking-out

Nice, clean, quiet location. Good access to Hallasan Mountain.
