Ramada Sokcho Hotel
Generally a good stay. Only issues is that they seem to be out of the taxi zone. Easy to get to the hotel, but hard to get a pick up from the hotel back to town.

Hotel Maremons
While the service was friendly, I felt the hotel itself was not as advertised. The hotel itself seemed a little outdated. The bed was dreadfully hard and the pool was drained and closed. Overall it was pretty underwhelming.
