혼자 여행갔는데 사장님 친절하셨어요 다만 비가 오는 날이었는데 계단물기들 때문에 넘어져서 발목을 접질렀네요..ㅠㅠ

Great hotel. Very hospitable owner, although we did not see each other, but was always in touch in the chat. Nearby bus stop, minimarket. Not far from the embankment, all kinds of snack bars. Everything you need in the hotel. On the ground floor there is a dining room where you can use a microwave and a kettle, here in the morning breakfast (cereals, milk, toast, tea, coffee). In the room there is a large bed, shower gel, disposable toothbrushes with paste, many sockets, towels. If I am in Sokcho again - I will definitely stay here!

The location is good because Sokcho attractions such as Abai Village and Sokcho Market are close, but in terms of facilities, it was disappointing that the shelter was not properly equipped with board games. The boss is kind and nice When I ate breakfast and washed the dishes, cold water came out and my hands were so cold.

Basic accommodations for a family of 4 Our room had 4 bunk beds and a queen sized bed. They don't want you eating in your room but there is a kitchen with seating on the first floor. In the morning there is bad coffee, juice, cereal and toast. This was nice as most eating establishments are not open before 10. The hostel was conveniently located near to the Jungang market and to the 7 bus to Seoraksan. The 7 and 9 bus were convenient to many further tourist attractions. We also easily walked to Abai village and Yeonggungjeom Pavilion.

A good choice of stay at Sokcho Room is clean with limited furniture. The location of the accommodation is quite alright. Major tourist sites are within walking distance. Close to city bus stop with 3-min walk only. Easy access to bus for seoraksan national park. The short cut to Inter City Bus Terminal takes no more than 10 minutes. If time is right you may enjoy the sunrise from the rooftop terrace.
