Hotel 2-Star di Gangwon State, South Korea

The room and bathroom was clean and wide. There was heating in the room, Netflix, amenities for comfortable stay. As I saw, there is a free breakfast in the morning for the guests (except Mondays), so I couldn’t try it but I was absolutely satisfied with the room.

This hotel was a cool sanctuary on a really hot summer day. Perhaps because it's a new building or well-maintained, I didn't see a single strand of hair. It was incredibly clean, and the facilities were impeccable. Having a water dispenser in the room meant I didn't need to buy bottled water, and the coffee machine and bidet added to the convenience. The view was also fantastic. I usually wonder if paying extra for a regular ocean view is worth it since it gets pitch black after sunset, but my wife wanted it, so we booked it. This place, however, offered beautiful views from morning to night, including the night scenery, the sea, and Cheongcho Lake, which was lovely. There's a variety of great restaurants nearby, and Sokcho Beach isn't far either. It was truly a wonderful place to stay. If only the water pressure in the shower had been a bit stronger, it would have been a perfect 100-point stay, so I'll give it a 99 out of 100. Haha.

The boss is very nice. Because transportation and shopping are inconvenient, he will help with pick-up and drop-off, and he can cook and barbecue. It is very suitable for a family vacation and relaxation! I will go again if I have the opportunity to come to Seoul in the future! Thanks again boss!

The room is spacious, has 2 bathrooms and toilets make usage convenient for a family. We stayed there because we went skiing in Elysian so it’s 15 min drive. I don’t think it’s very accessible by public transport. Interior design is a bit strange, combining colorful and traditional wooden bulky furniture, the wall is painted black and there is only one small window in the big living room so the feeling is dark, and the led light hanging on the second floor fence don’t work. So I would say facility and hygiene is just ok , but the price kind of explain this, so it’s acceptable.

The hotel has a great location right in front of Naksan Beach (a great beach - lots of white sand). There are restaurants and supermarkets close by and it is a quick taxi ride to the Yangyang airport and Yangyang bus depot. Staff are efficient and helpful without being intrusive. The hotel seems to have been newly renovated and the rooms, passages and common areas are newly carpeted and newly painted. There is a small gym and laundry room available for use. Most guests seemed to stay only one night which seemed strange, given the great location. The only thing that could be improved upon is some basic facilities in the room. There is no cupboard (although there is enough space for one), only one chair (and its fairly uncomfortable at that) and no furniture on the balcony - we really wanted to sit on the balcony and look at the sea in the evenings, but there is nothing to sit on. At the time that we stayed there (October 2024) there was quite a bit of construction noise as there are hotels being built on either side of the Naksan (although this is not the fault of the hotel itself).

It was a really nice stay! Since the room was quite affordable for a 3-day vacation, I wasn’t expecting much, but it turned out to be much better than I expected, especially for the price. The owner was incredibly kind, welcoming, and friendly, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The neighborhood was peaceful and had a charming village atmosphere. Each room has a table outside, so we were able to have dinner and relax on the porch in the evenings, which was a lovely experience. The accommodation is a bit farther from Mukho’s city center, but it was definitely worth it for the price. It was also easy to get a taxi whenever we wanted to go into the city. Basic amenities such as shampoo, body wash, and towels are provided, although you may still prefer to bring your own toiletries for personal comfort. There’s also a shared microwave available, and each room comes with its own refrigerator. Overall, we had a wonderful stay, and a big part of that was thanks to the owner. Her kindness and hospitality made us feel very welcome, and I would happily stay here again.

I arrived from Sokcho and took an Uber from the bus stop. I had a hard time choosing a hotel in this area because I wanted a room with a bathtub, and most options were quite expensive. This hotel turned out to be a great choice — the room was really spacious, and there were only a few rooms in total, which made it feel more private. They offered free breakfast. I’m not sure about other options, but I remember being asked what type of breakfast I preferred. I chose a sandwich, and every morning it was already prepared on the table at the first floor — all guests seemed to have the same. There’s also free coffee and tea available. The amenities were excellent — the room was spotless and well-equipped with towels, bathrobes, slippers, a hair dryer, water heater, coffee and tea, a fridge, and complete toiletries including a toothbrush (which is rare in most hotels in Korea). Overall, it’s a clean, comfortable, and quiet place to stay. I highly recommend it if you’re planning to explore the Chuncheon area

To be honest.. all's good. Just 2 mini grumbles.. 1. I suppose because they do generally allow their guests to smoke in the room, i can still smell the tabacco lingering. Not the best smell through the nights there. 2. No lifts. Thankfully my luggage is not heavy this round so its still manageable else i could foresee an issue lugging it up and down the stairs. Now.. the pros..! 1. It is very clean. Bathroom attached which its great. 2. Room size is okie for 2. Has tv, wifi, lots of plugs.. facial care as well actually.. and a rather nice-smelling diffuser. Spacious even, to put 1 luggage. Theres a heater and aircon unit ( of cuz not needed in this winter season) 3. Bathroom is spacious. There's towels provided. Shampoo, bodywash and toothpaste even! Abundant hot water. 4. A stone throw away from the bus terminal. Less than 5mins walk. Loads of eateries, cafes and even a diaso. Oh and the market. 5. Small town.. so everywhere's walkable. Quiet, slow-paced town. Awesome to chill here.

The room looks exactly like the photos online. The owners were incredibly kind and friendly. I brought some takeout to eat on the first floor, and the owner was genuinely worried that because I was from out of town, I might have been overcharged – it was quite endearing, haha. The breakfast seems to vary slightly each day. Towels, a hairdryer, a comb, shampoo, body wash, and other essentials are all provided. The coffee is delicious, so definitely have some in the morning! There's a beach right in front, and since transportation isn't great anywhere in Gangneung, just take a taxi.

The hotel's location is excellent, you can clearly see the beachfront and sea view, while rooms on the other side overlook a lake. The hotel is surrounded by restaurants and convenience stores, and it's very close to a bus stop. Amenities are well-stocked, including a hairdryer, in-room slippers, housekeeping service, and unlimited drinking water, plus a free water dispenser that helps cut down on plastic use. I also liked being able to open the windows for fresh air, and there are still insect screens in place. One small note: I couldn't find the amenities at first since they were kept in a box placed in the bedroom area, a label on the box would make them easier to spot. As for towels, only short hair towels were provided; larger bath towels would be more convenient. The housekeeping staff were generously attentive, though the bathroom cleaning wasn't quite thorough, I noticed some stray hairs left in a few spots. Overall, the hotel's location and service were very good.
