6/10
Lets start with the angry man. The property supposely has 24 hour reception. It does not. We turned up and it appeared to be deserted. We called out and knocked on the door of the big building at the entrance and the place appeared to be deserted. The cage was closed. There was a car in the car park but we did not know were the owner was. Walking around the property we noticed that three rooms has keys hanging in the locks on the door. After using a translating app we figured out which cabin was ours as they had names on them. Suspecting that self check in was required (as it is in many properties), but not communicated we let ourselves in. Shortly after, whilst carrying our luggage from the car were were met by an angry man who accused us of breaking in. Apparently we were supposed to guess which building he was living in (no sign or anyhting) and call on arrival (that was never communicated and we did not have a phone that could make a call). His rage lasted for a good 10 minutes.
Anyway the place was OK but pretty average. It is old and rustic and has harm. It was clean enough. However, compared to the other traditional house we stayed in (Dong Park Saeng E) on Jeju, this one was a distant second. Even overlooking the check in issue, I am not sure we would stay again.
