Advantages & Flaws

  • +
    The hillside position gives many rooms and the rooftop garden open views over the sea, Seogwipo port and the islands of Saeseom and Munseom. Watching the boats in the harbour at sunset is one of the pleasures of the stay.
  • +
    Cleanliness scores close to nine out of ten, and guests often describe rooms as spotless. The building is recent, with polished concrete floors and modern bathrooms with strong showers.
  • +
    Staff go out of their way to help, according to reviews, from ordering takeaway food to contacting airlines and other hotels with their own phones. Translation tools bridge the language gap.
  • +
    Free washing machines and dryers, plus a shared kitchen, make the hotel practical for longer trips and for travellers walking the Olle trails who need clean clothes every few days.
  • +
    Prices often start around forty five to fifty five US dollars, excellent value for a new hotel with sea views in central Seogwipo.
  • -
    English is limited at reception, and most communication relies on translation apps. Guests who need detailed explanations should prepare questions in writing.
  • -
    Breakfast is very simple, mainly cereal and toast, and not every rate includes it. The market and cafés nearby are better for a real meal.
  • -
    Some rooms feel compact, and one guest found the layout of power sockets inconvenient. The walk back up the hill from the waterfront requires some effort.
