It was perfect. The facilities such as the beautiful garden and hot springs were clean and nice, and the kind monk did his best to explain this and that, so I really liked it.
The location was also within walking distance of famous tourist attractions such as Okunoin, Geumgang Bongsa, and Dansanggaram.
It was a very satisfying and happy trip. I visited alone this time, but I definitely want to visit again with someone next time.

Beautiful place, however the information published is not all accurate. Dinner is actually at 6 p.m. while the website says 5 p.m. Moreover, the curfew at 8 p.m. is not indicated on the website. So we missed the evening visit to the cemetery that we had booked and paid for.
