    “3 days and 4 nights review. Satisfied.”

    The accommodation I booked because I wanted to use the swimming pool. The cost of the pool is not cheap, but it's worth using for a day or so. The beach is also close, and I intended to go swimming, but I couldn't. It's close to the beach, but walking there felt daunting as it was hot... I ended up taking a stroll on the beach at night and returned using a shared scooter. When I went to the beach at night, it was bustling, so it felt like a vacation spot, but since the accommodation is a bit far away, it was relatively quiet... Personally, I liked that aspect. If you're planning on swimming, I recommend a place closer to the sea. It was good that there was a washing machine available, but it was disappointing that there were no drying facilities. They offered a drying rack, but it was too small... Drying indoors isn’t possible... There’s a small terrace outside, but there are too many bugs, so I didn’t want to go out. I didn’t want to hang my laundry either. Induction cooking is prohibited, so there’s nothing to cook, only food delivery options are available. The living space was quite small besides the two beds, but since I was mostly just sleeping and going out, it wasn't uncomfortable. The elevator is small compared to the number of rooms, and it’s inconvenient with only three elevators. There’s a convenience store on the first floor, which is good, but once you go up, it’s a hassle to go back down, so I didn't go often. They said they would clean, but I didn’t use that service because it seemed like a hassle. The staff were all friendly.

    “Exceptional”

    We did not except that much but we can say that it worths your money. The room was super clean and tidy. As well as the staffs are so friendly, we called a lot and they answered patiently. The view from our room is also breathtaking: Seokcho Eye with the sea breeze is a perfect match. One more thing their rooms are quite sound proof for sensitive people like me who could not sleep in new place and hear really well. Highly recommended for all👍🏻

    “Amazing room and view in Sokcho”

    We loved this hotel as a group of 4. We booked the family suite and enjoyed a comfortable and spacious area, with a beautiful view of the sea. It was also clean and staff was accommodating. One small thing to note though is that they do not have utensils since cooking inside the unit is not allowed.

    “Officetel Converted to a Hotel”

    I believe the building was originally built as an officetel and then it was converted to a hotel. Room —> Mixed feelings, but overall positive. The room was rather small, but was clean and properly furnished. It has a balcony which offered fantastic views of the beach. There is also a table with two small chairs in the room, which I suppose could be brought out to the balcony if you want to enjoy the night view while having some wine and snacks. The room came with a washing machine, a very large refrigerator, an induction cooker that didn’t work and lots of storage space, which were probably included since the space was built as an officetel. The toilet was rather small, especially the shower area. Bed was on the softer side, and the two pillows given were of different types. Facilities —> Poor. Lifts were inadequate for the number of guests and wait time was pretty long. There was an infinity pool in the hotel, but a separate charge of 30,000 KRW is required to access it so I didn’t use it. Plus point, there is a convenience store below the hotel. Location —> Very good. It was one stop away from the express bus terminal or about 10-15 minutes walk. It was not as close to the beach as the picture showed and the cover picture is somewhat a deception. It took about 10-15 minutes to walk to the beach. There is a nice brunch place (“Redavo”) just 3 minutes walk from the hotel. Outside the hotel, there is a bus stop where the major buses stop at, and one of them brings you to Seoraksan.

    “Extremely value for money! Wonderful experience ”

    Very clean property. Staff are most helpful even thought their English isn’t so good. They tried they’re best to help (so appreciative of it). Room is extremely spacious and even has a washing machine (no detergent though so best to get it from daiso). Toilet is well equipped with soap and shampoo, water pressure is good! The balcony doors are very sound proof so the noisy road was barely audible. Views are great too (even though mine is a city view I can see Seoraksan mountain). Did not get the included breakfast… May be a good idea to get it included as there aren’t many breakfast options in the area! Will definitely stay again for sure!
