Clint is the highlight of his establishment. Sure, you won't get a regular deshumanized rbnb experience, but you'll get more than you paid for. Visit Gyeongju and stay at Clint's Han Jin.

Only stayed one night. Host is very kind and lovely, but the place is really expensive for the dated accommodations you get. I was fine with the simplicity, just felt the value for money wasn’t worth it

Great stay, accessible to everything in the area and right by the bus stations! Owner is wonderful and gave lots of information about the local area and loved a chat about life. Room was very basic and the walls in a private room were marked with old mould stains but overall very happy and would stay again!

We had a great stay at Han Jin Hostel in a private room for 2. The location is pretty convenient, really close from the hanok village. The owner, Clint, is super friendly & gave us great tips about the city and the surroundings and we spent a great evening chatting with his sister, who's a locale guide. Thanks again for the sindang market recommandation! The hostel may just be missing a shared room to chat and relax, otherwise we had a good stay.

The best hostel EVER! Note that this is a very old school and no frills type of place, but perfect if you’re looking for somewhere quiet, safe, and a place that will really remind you of a backpacker’s haven. Clint, the owner, is the coolest man in all of South Korea!

A very basic setup overall but this is far outweighed by the aura of the hostel. You can tell it’s been a safe haven for backpackers visiting Gyeongju for a very long time. Clint, the owner, is a wonderful host and a wealth of knowledge- highly recommend.

I had a great stay in a single room. Clean sheets, key to room, excellent in room bathroom, hot water. The hostel manager will tell you all you need to know about sight seeing and getting on buses etc.. Close to night market and Royal tombs.

It's an old hostel. the location is excellent, right next to the Bus terminal. The owner was also very friendly and helpful and could speak English. But sadly I wouldn't recommend this Hostel, especially in the summertime, simply because it has no Air conditioning and it was so hot that I couldn't sleep at night.

The owner, Mr. Clint (Eastwood) of Gyeong-ju (Han-Jin Hostel) was fantastic! He was very friendly and helped to give me a great plan to make the most out of Gyeong-ju. I would recommend staying here if you want to travel on a budget while also enjoying your experience.

We only spent one night at Han Jin Hostel but it will remain a memorable experience. Simple but clean room. We shared great conversations with the host and his sister. Location is great, right next to the bus terminal and a short walk away from the main sites. Highly recommend !

The owner is very nice, welcoming and funny. The atmosphere of the place is also great. However, the building is very old and definitely needs some renovation. The room are more than basic with old (and unstable) furnitures. There was mold in the room which definitely not healthy.

房間稍微老舊,廁所很多人共用一間,但交通非常方便,也有提供吹風機給住客使用,老闆很健談,可以找他聊天🤣
