Gangneung, Gangwon hotel rooms at the Independent

"None"

"The hotel is nothing fancy but it is clean, right by the sea, and has many restaurants nearby. I liked it."

"Everything is excellent"

"Great staff, beautiful ocean view, and clean amenities. "

"Very nicely decorated hotel. Only thing is they do not provide basic utensil (e.g., tea spoons) and charge rental for that. Although there is a kitchen, basically you can't use the kitchen as it has nothing (e.g., knife, scissor). There is also not a lot of food around, we ended up buying instant meal from the 24/7 convenient store. Tips: bring your own food/utensil if you plan to stay here."

"The entire place was lovely and quiet. Only thing was in the middle of the night the water shut off and it came back on at 5am. Like all the other Korean hotels they only had a bath towel. No hand towel or wash cloths. The breakfast was a simple fare of potatoe sandwich, fruit and coffee. The ambiance was just great. "

"Very nice and clean!!"

"Room was way too small."

"Great location near the port with coffee shops and options for food nearby. The hotel staff were very friendly, the breakfast was nice and the hotel was very clean. My friends and I would definitely stay again!"
