Apartments σε Gangwon State, South Korea

I took an Uber from the bus terminal and was dropped off at Building C because I just typed the hotel name — it happened to be the first building we passed, and I didn’t know that it wasn’t the main one. Building C has no reception, so I went up to Level 4 (if I remember correctly) for the kiosk check-in. It was a bit laggy, but I managed to complete the process and was assigned a room in Building A. I’m not sure if all rooms with the Ondol (heated-floor) type are in that building. I had to walk to Building A with my two suitcases, which took around 5-7 minutes — not too bad, but it felt a bit of a hassle after a long trip. The location, however, was really good. If you love catching the sunrise, you can simply wake up early and walk for about 2 minutes to the beach. I also booked an Uber ride to Seoraksan National Park for a 5 a.m. hike, which cost ₩17,500. The room was quite spacious, especially for a solo traveler. The only downside was that there’s no bidet or smart toilet. You might also want to bring your own large towel, as they only provide small ones, and no toothbrush kits — although there’s a vending machine on the first floor for toiletries and slippers if you need extras. The heating floor worked perfectly, and the room was very clean. It’s well-equipped with cooking and dining utensils, a built-in electric stove, a washing machine, and a large fridge — ideal for longer stays. There are also plenty of convenience stores, coffee shops, and restaurants on the first floor, and several attractions are within walking distance. Overall, it’s a great place to stay — comfortable, clean, and convenient for both short and long visits in Sokcho.

Hotel is self check-in (no staff onsite), you’ll receive a message from the hotel on the luggage storage password (24 hrs access - no assigned locker, just a room), and your room number and password. Ignore the self checkin kiosk at the lift lobby, you can go straight to your room with the password (but early checkin results in extra $). There is a wonderful sea view cafe called Hajodae Coffee, right at the next building. The Naksansa temple is also within walking distance (dont follow Naver Map, just walk towards Naksan Beach Hotel - you can see a lot of people walking up the steep road up the hotel). Food was unfortunately meant for groups, so solo travellers might need to make do with whatever you can find (convenience stores were available everywhere). There is a coin karaoke at Level 2 of the hotel building, have fun. Just felt a bit cheated when the bed actually back faces the sea, you cant see anything from the bed 😂. On the side, the tiles in the balcony seemed really dangerous, like they were going to explode. Loved that you can take the bus 9-1 from Yangyang Passenger Terminal (if you come from Gangneung Intercity Bus Terminal). It runs surprisingly quite frequent, about 10mins.

The place was amazing. Small apartment with great view of the sea with beautiful sunsets and sunrises. Very clean with a very friendly staff. The city fish market 5 minutes away and many little restaurants along the water. I highly recommend this hotel.

We really enjoyed staying here. The room quality, and the location near the sea were great. The view of the sea was a bonus. We found a good supermarket nearby for our needs. We visited Seoraksan national park each day and this destination was easily accessed by the 7 or 7-1 bus. Thoroughly recommended

A very cosy room for 2 persons. Conplete with cooking stove, big fridge, microwave oven, washing machine, laundry rack and a small dining table for 2. The wardrobe is spacious . Personal amenities can be purchased at the vending machine at the ground floor. There is a 24-hour GS25 convenient store at the ground level. There is a modern cafe at the ground level. The most accessible mode of transport is taxi. Nearest attraction is the Yangyang Traditional Market. There are several quaint cafes, bakeries and a Daiso in the vicinity.

The hotel is new and conveniently located close to the bus station and the beach. There are also convenience stores and coffee shops nearby. The room was spacious and clean, with excellent facilities including a kitchen, microwave, refrigerator, and coffee machine. The bed was very comfortable. They offer luggage storage, and you can even watch the sunrise from the rooftop!

Thank you so much to the good boss and wife. While barbecuing (don't get a drop of water on your hands), your wife brought beer to Hawaiian Beer Keeper, so we ate well. I used it with a middle school boy and a family of three, and it was so convenient that I want to come back again next time. It's clean after remodeling, and the best thing is bedding! Really clean!!! When I went home, I was really grateful that the boss packed sesame leaves and various vegetables and sent them to me~^^ ah. really! It's good to come with a child because you can see the stars in a daze. I met the owner again who came out to swim in the river in front of the pension in the afternoon after leaving the room. Thank you very much for greeting me until the end.

Visited here cuz it’s pet friendly. We have 4.5kg dog and this room allows just one dog that weighs less than 6kg. The hotel provides basic stuffs such as urine pads, snacks, water, a small bed, and stainless steel bowl. U need to pack ur dog’s food since they don’t provide it The room was small but enough for 2 people. However, it’s clean but not as clean as the pictures showed. But the price was reasonable so it’s not too bad for those who just stay 1-2 days.

Great location, close to Elysian ski resort. Could have been cleaner, I could tell the housekeeping in between stays was not very thorough, but it got the job done for the price. Bed was uncomfortable but I only stayed one night so I made do. The massage chair was definitely the highlight of this room after being on the slopes all day. Very noisy and loud throughout the night from neighbors partying. The owner was very nice.

The hotel's location is ideal, just a two-minute walk across the street to the beach. The room is equipped with cooking facilities, a decent size, clean, and tidy. 😄 Self-service check-in and check-out were quite convenient. I stayed for three nights, and it was clear that room cleaning was not included; there would be an extra charge for it. No one came to collect trash, and there were no disposable toothbrushes or toothpaste. We only had two large and two small towels, which might not be enough for a three-day stay. The value for money was just okay. Sokcho is a tourist city, so prices are generally higher. 🙁
