I recently spent four nights at Tulip Pension. To be honest, a friend who knows the owner recommended this place to me, and when I
saw a photo of the room showing the view, I fell in love with it, even though I knew that it was situated a bit outside of the city. I had
anticipated taking the bus to downtown Tongyeong, but the owner insisted on driving me there in the morning and then, when I had
finished with my tours, I would call him from Lotte Mart, where he would pick me up. He insisted that it wasn¡¯t a problem, since my
visit took place on weekdays and his schedule was more flexible than on weekends, when he gets most of his bookings and is quite
busy. Needless to say, I really appreciated his kindness! He was also very helpful when a nearby store did not accept my credit card
for the purchase of groceries. Since I had cash (US dollars) on me, he drove me to a bank where I could exchange them for won.
Even then, I don¡¯t think the branch was used to dealing with dollars, so they asked to see his ID, and he essentially acted as surety
that my dollars were good.
As for the room itself, it matched up perfectly with what I¡¯d seen in the picture. Although just one room with a bathroom, it was lovely
and contained almost everything I needed: a comfortable bed, a large refrigerator with freezer, a wide screen TV, a one-burner
stove, a microwave and teapot, and dishes and cutlery. I found out that it was also possible ¡°to borrow¡± such things as a frying pan
that weren¡¯t in the room. I enjoyed waking up to the lovely view in the morning, then fixing my breakfast and sitting at the table and
continuing to enjoy the view. Even on the one morning when rain greeted me, it was fun watching it come down and listening to the
sounds of the rain beating on the balcony. (I also want to mention that there was good water pressure in the bathroom - both for the
toilet and the shower - and plenty of hot water for the shower, something that I haven¡¯t always found at some of the places I¡¯ve
stayed.)
Having learned that I knew some Korean, my host did his best to encourage me to get over my embarrassment and try to use the
language as best I could. I really appreciated his encouragement as well as his warmth and nice sense of humor. Although he claims
not to speak English well, that is far from true, and I appreciated the fact that I was able to convey my needs in English, when my
Korean wasn¡¯t up to the task. Overall, he really bent over backward to assist me and to make my stay as pleasant as possible, which
is just one of the reasons I have such wonderful memories of my time in Tongyeong.
