This was a surprise as one never knows what you’re going to get. For me top notch especially as a solo traveler. Way more than I expected! Great access to all the right buses.

This hotel js family-run type of business and the host can speak fairly good english. The rooms are big & clean as shown in the pictures. We book a room for 2 person but the room can accomodate 3 as there were 2 queen size beds plus there is a dining area with tv. This property is not by the beach area but still.have many eating options around the hotel. The main mode of public transport are buses or taxis. There is a bus terminal next to the hotel & it's approximately 10k won taxi ride from Pohang Station. All in all we love the cosy place.

The facility was one of the cutest place I experienced. The place was operated and run by mother and daughter team. They were both very friendly and courteous. The hotel was nothing fancy nor state of the art place, but the deco and the atmosphere were excellent. Their breakfast options were also unique and healthy. Only problem was that they don't have an elevator, but the cuteness and the uniqueness and friendliness compensated for the lack of the elevator.

It was nicer than I expected. The hotel was very clean with modern taste. I stayed alone for 2 nights. The room was small but cozy. Simple breakfast was included. The bean porridge and cup noodles were also available with no charge. I needed a taxi. They kindly made a phone call and arranged a taxi service for me. A little bit of street noise at night, but it is not bad and I was able sleep well. I will go there again if I need a place to stay in that city.
