    Began with a very warm welcome from a lovely couple, and their gentle dog Berry. They kindly gave us advice on how to get around the region and which sites to visit, going out of their way to help us without us asking. Spacious room for four including a bathroom, perfect for a group of friends. Brilliant location for the beach and decent for going into town. Great value for money as well.

    What a lovely place! It was mt third time in Sokcho and I wanted a more peaceful location, close to the beach. This hostel was perfect and the owner was so kind and helpful. I was very impressed by the room, I was expecting something more basic, but it was absolutely lovely and with a little balcony with a sea view. Thanks for your hospitality!

    You can hear the other guests when they are in the corridor, but not when they are in their room. So at worst case you hear them for a few minutes, when the come or go.

    The hosts were amazing, super friendly and recommended what to do in the area. The hostel is very close to the beach, so it's easy to go for a swim after a day of sightseeing. Everything was clean. I would recommend the place for a stay in Sokcho and I would book it again, if I was to come back.

    The staff were very kind and helpful. They gave me a big city map and explained what places are worth visiting in the Seoraksan National Park and in Sokcho. I highly appreciate they helped me plan an onward bus journey to Andong. The bus stop for the National Park is 15 minutes away on foot, the express bus terminal for Seoul about the same, and the intercity bus terminal is a short bus ride away. The room was spacious, clean, comfortable and very quiet. I booked a single, but received a double room - thank you! There was a large fridge and a freezer on every floor.

    The owners are very friendly people who helped with a couple of tips. The guesthouse is located directly opposite the beach with a stunning walking area. There are many restaurants and shops around. There is a bus stop within a 10-minute walk that leads to Seoraksan, and it takes 15-20 minutes to get to Seoraksan itself. Their magnificent black dog leaves special emotions, which you just want to hug!

    We had a great time in Sokcho. The owners that ran the place were very friendly and gave us some helpful tips on the best things to do in the area. We enjoyed the rooftop and the accommodations location was great, a short walk to the beach. There were a few restaurants/convenience stores within walking distance. The room was all you needed to have a comfortable nights rest.

    Very friendly staff with tips about what to do and which hike to do in seoraksan national park. On the day of we even got a bag of fruit to take with us on the hike. The day we were leaving we got a ride to the bus station. The price-quality was good, the room was basic but all the necessary things were available (eg fridge for every floor, shower amenities, even tooth paste). The mattress and pillows were comfortable.
