                  Best place to stay”

                  The staff was very kind. The hotel is located in the center of the Gangneung city, so accessibility is good. It takes 5minutes walk to go to the train station and 10minutes drive to Pyeongchang Olympic Stadium. Also, within 30minutes there are many scenic beaches, attraction and shopping mall. It was a nice trip because the hotel was clean, the staff was friendly and accessibility was good.

                  Great for a Love Motel”

                  This place had a great balance between Love Motel and actual Motel. Our room was extremely comfortable and we had everything we needed. The fresh coffee downstairs was a great touch. Walking distance to some good markets and a good base for exploring Gangneung.

                  Not Bad!”

                  There are probably better guesthouses in Gangneung, but if you're on a budget, Sketch Motel is a good choice. Probably the cheapest place we booked in our 1 week going around the country. Interaction with staff (during check in/out or with emails) is minimal, so don't be too surprised about that. The room itself is spacious, clean. They have free coffee and water and an elevator, and toiletries are provided. The place is near convenience stores and restaurants too. If you're staying for a night, this place will do! Oh yeah, the sign for the motel itself is in Korean, so keep your eyes open for that.

                  The room is clean and big and is very well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helped us to organise the taxi to Jeongdongjin for sunrise watching early in the morning.

                  평일 가격 대비 무난하게 숙박했습니다. 다만 객실 내 비품 청결상태가 그닥... 특히 물주전자는 뚜껑이 좁아 내부를 닦을래야 닦을수도 없어서인지 속 바닥이 녹슬어있기도... 그래도 침대와 벽지는 깨끗했네요. 아울러, 객실 내 전등이 하나밖에 없어서 중앙등 끄고 나면 너무 어두워 어떻게 할 도리가 없었네요. 보조등이라도 하나 있었으면 좋으련만...
