Sangju, North Gyeongsang hotel rooms at the Independent

"Hotel looks pretty new and clean."

"Great hotel. Clean and spacious. Having a full size bathtub is a rarity in Korea. Foreigners be sure to use a translator as all documents/guides are in Korean. "

"If you want some peace and quiet in a forest, this should fit your bill. Room itself is fine and the bathroom is functional. But aside from the restaurant on the first floor there isn’t much of anything else nearby."

"Clean and safe"

"The hotel staff are very kind and nice, friendly. Recommend to visit like retro culture looks like!!!"

"Very comfortable bed, clean room and great service. Close to lots of shops and bus services "

"They need someone who can write an email in English without any hesitations. There were difficulties in communication between this hotel staff and Expedia. Expedia needs Korean employees who can be fluent in both Korean and English."

"Easy to approach. Shortage for the parking spot"

"This hotel has, without a doubt, the best service I experienced during a three week trip in Korea, sometimes staying at four and five star hotels. The accommodations were fantastic, the breakfast was good, the dining options were really good, the chef is excellent. But the main thing is the service. This staff is fantastic. They even showed me how to use the washing machine that was all Korean language. They went out of their way. I only wish that this were on my regular route of travel so that I could stay there again and again and again."
