"It is very near airport so if staying here, taxi fare from airport only cost you about 5, 000 Korean won. Although the location is in new downtown Jeju, with dedicated staff help and info , i managed to just short walk to nearest bus stop , and take local bus (no. 365) to either go to Dongmun Market and on my way return to airport. Multiple 24 hours convenient shops is with walking distance and few Korean restaurant to eat grilled mackerel or seaweed soup fish. Another advantage , room is quite spacious and good price value. If you plan to travel light, there is few self laundry shop to clean up your used clothes. This hotel also is the first bus pick up with you are pre-book YEHA bus tour and the tour bus will drop you off nearby once you have completed the daily tours. Perfect for single or couple traveller. Wise money spent to stay here. Good English speaking staffs are very happy to help anytime of the day if you need informations, recommendations and guidance for your Jeju trip."

"My second stay at Sum Guest House Jeju Airport is as memorable as the first! I took on the tour with the guesthouse owner, Joy. He is absolutely the best!! He is so friendly that you could talk about anything under the sun, he speaks decent english and probably understands a little of mandarin. He gives good advices on your suggested itinerary and would try his best to cover all the places you would like to visit. He drives a big car that could fit a huge group and his driving skills is simply amazing that I'm still in awe! He brings you to the best places that typical tour groups wouldn't bring you to, to try out the local jeju cuisines such as BBQ black pork, abalone hot stone rice, seafood hotpot, traditional pork noodles and hair tail stew. Even after spending 7 days in seoul, the food isn't comparable to those I ate in Jeju. He is also an avid photographer, so while on the tour, he would whip out his DSLR and go-pro to film videos and pictures (do bring along a huge tumbdrive/hard disk if you do join the tour!). The location is great as its only 10mins away from the airport, directly opposite the bus terminal, so taxi drivers won't be able to get the place wrong. The amenities are simple. You could choose between a double bed or bunk bed configuration for the rooms. I would prefer the bunk bed because there would be more space for moving around. There is also an electrical socket for each bunk bed. Though the toilets are shared, there are sufficient to go around. Breakfast is a DIY concept. I got to cook and eat as many eggs in any way I wanted! There are also instant noodles, bread with spreads and beverages like jeju tangerine juice, coffee and tea. The staff are really young and lively. I truly enjoyed my stay. Thank you Sum Guest House Jeju Airport and Joy!! I'm looking forward to head back during the winter season for my future trips! (: "
