Absolute sea views from our room and a beautiful breeze from the lovely balcony. The room was clean and practical, with an enormous (maybe even too big) TV. The lobby was welcoming and the staff were friendly. We didn’t try the breakfast buffet but the price seemed very reasonable. Would stay here again if in Gangneung."
