    This hotel deserves its average rating above 8. In the off season, the town was quiet. The ocean front room was large, clean, and adequately equipped. The room’s simplicity reminded me a bit of a Japanese ryokan, attaining a certain elegance through minimalism. The ocean view from our balcony was spectacular.

    Tiniest towels you'll ever see in your life. Not sure how they're meant to be used for anyone other than a newborn baby. No restaurant on property

    We requested a late checkout, but the hotel policy is 20,000 won for one hour late checkout (12:00), which I think is a bit high.

    Very clean and quiet room and the hotel is located just across from a really nice calm section of the beach.

    the power of hair dryer was weak and there was not a curtain between the bathtub and the toilet so that the whole bathroom became really wet when you took a shower.

    The staff was very nice. However, when I came back to pick up my luggage, there was a manager at the front desk. I told him in Korean that I left my bag and politely asked to give it back, but he looked confused and a bit impolite even though I'm ethical Korwan and speak very good, polite Korean. I don't think that workers in the service sector can look irritated when speaking to guests.

    The front desk staff was nice. Housekeeping ladies who cleaned glass doors on the 1st floor were also friendly. Liked quality of amenities in the bathroom, sea view, clean rooms, heating system (thanks, it wasn't central system like in other hotels!). Also, the hotel offered cheap prices despite the weekends. Highly recommend this hotel!

    With the connected floor and glass seperator not touching ground, water from shower tends to wet almost half the bathroom floor.

    Neat and clean finishings. Room was serviced and toiletries replaced daily. Slippers and towelling gown provided or request if not already in room. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Good location. 7-Eleven convenience store opposite, short walk to beach, river and main street with a line of restaurants maps of Gangneung and tourist brochures provided at reception which were very helpful for planning activities. Great view from the room. Double windows that open with a filter for insects. Kettle and mugs in room with bottled water in mini fridge provided. A common microwave for the floor. Good pressure, comfortable shower, hot water and spacious bathroom. Besides the vanity table with a mirror and chair, there was also a small table and 2 couch chairs.

    The location was excellent, right in front of the beach. Within walking distance to key places. Get the ocean balcony room, it’s worth it, Rooms are very spacious and staff are friendly and very accommodating. I highly recommend this hotel. It’s a place I would return to. Safe location and good for solo travellers. Seeing the sun rise from my balcony was a highlight of this stay. There is coffee and free ice water downstairs in addition to few bottles In The room fridge. Thanks for such a great stay.

    The check-in was a little stressful and not at all welcoming. Partly because of the language barrier, but I explained over and over again that I had booked 2 rooms, and showed my confirmation on the Booking app, and he didn't want to give me keys for both rooms until after I paid and he finally looked closer. It was weird. The air conditioner also drained the condensation into a hole in the wall in the bathroom, so the floor was always wet.

    There was a hot/cold water purifier in the hallway and an espresso machine by the check in desk. It was nice to walk to the beach, and there was a foot washing station in the parking lot.
