    We loved the cleanliness and size of the room, which was nicely furnished and decorated. The bed was comfortable with a firm mattress, clean bedding, and good pillows. The room was also equipped with a good quality TV with many channels. The bathroom was sparkling clean with brand new amenities and a hairdryer. The hotel staff, especially James, was friendly and helpful. The hotel's location was perfect, close to everything in the center of the city, including the main attractions and transportation options. Additionally, the complimentary breakfast was a wonderful bonus.

    Everything is what we need and want.

    We had a great trip at this low-budget hotel. The staff was friendly and amazingly nice. Thoroughly enjoyed the location to seoraksan national park. Plus, it was really close to the Bibimbap restaurant close to the hostel and bus stop, bus station and also local market and the beach, which has a lot of stalls and restaurants, as well as the Tourist & Fishery Market.

    This is surely the best low cost hotel, helpful and incredibly friendly staff, new-fashioned rooms. The breakfast offers a huge variety of coffee, tea, toast, and cereals. It has favourable, excellent setting, very close to the beach, which has a lot of stalls and restaurants, as well as the Tourist & Fishery Market as well as the highlights of Sokcho. Again, the property is within 15 minutes' walk of Seokbong Ceramic Museum.

    Nothing everything was great!

    Very clean and comfortable, with all necessary amenities provided. Excellent value for money with a private twin bunk room available at a great price.- Convenient location within walking distance of the bus terminal and a beach.

    Mosquitoes in the room with no controls such as bed nets or insecticides. Uncomfortably hard mattress and pillows wrapped in plastic sheathing.
