Gyeongju Friend Guesthouse is a great place for a short stay in Gyeongju. The owner is really friendly and accommodating. She told me where the best areas were in Gyeongju and made a good restaurant recommendation when I asked. Unfortunately many places in the area were closed so her recommendation was really helpful. The breakfast was good and the hostel itself is well maintained. I also liked how spacious it was altogether from the bedrooms to the bathrooms. The hostel is also a short walk from all of the sights so you don't have to worry about travel.

I really enjoyed my stay! The place was clean, and the room was spacious and well-ventilated. The bathrooms and showers were located outside the room. The location was also very convenient, within walking distance of the main attractions and bus stations. I had a very pleasant stay, and I would especially like to highlight the host’s excellent service. She was very kind, helpful, and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place!

The owner is indeed very kind, she even remembered my name even though we only crossed paths twice briefly. I arrived late past 11pm but she welcomed me with a smile. Basically the place is good for the low price, especially during the silk road festival when everything else was sold out. The breakfast which guests have praised include eggs that you can cook yourself however you like, bread, drinks and a huge pot of corn soup that you can drink any time while it lasts. Simple but very good value.
I didn't sleep well but that's mostly because of the people I shared the dorm with. The door opens and locks with the usual Korean lock jingle so anyone going in or out during the night woke me. If you're a light or even medium sleeper, be prepared with your heavy duty ear plugs. The bathrooms are basic, usually if there aren't many people at the same time (which was the case when I went in the evenings) you can have some privacy with the curtains but it's mostly a big communal shower space with a few shower curtains separating some sections but no racks to place towels or anything on. Also there was unfortunately some arguments between two guests in my dorm because one tried to claim a bed that was already taken accidentally. So basically make it obvious when you claim a bed to avoid the same issue as beds are self assigned.

The owners were kind and helpful, and it was great value for the price - especially given that it was Chuseok.
The hallways constantly smelled like food because of the kitchen downstairs, and facilities were old. It was also located near what I realized was a slightly seedy (by Korean standards, to be fair) neighborhood.
