"The hotel has a beautiful oceanfront location at Daepohang Port with direct access to the seawall walkway. The room and bathroom were small but comfortably sized, and the Deluxe Twin room had a stunning view of the ocean, port and mountains. The cleaning staff are to be commended as the room was as clean a hotel room that I've experienced. Front Desk staff also were were professional and efficient. Two things to note though: the towels, as typical with Korea, are functional but pretty basic; and getting elevators during the morning breakfast rush hour or check-out time can be challenging, especially if there's a number of tour group staying at the hotel."
