Great place to stay for foreigners. Bus servince in and out of Sokcho is very close. Not far from the bus station to Seoul either (Intercity Bus that is). Friendly staff that speaks English. Rooms are very nice. Be warned that most amentities aren't included, like dental kits or slippers, and you'll need to purchase them from vending machines at the lobby. People complaining about the slow elevators are hilarious, the elevators work great. Great place to stay!
