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.
For $30 a night, this place would be fine. We were charged 10 times that, though, through Hotels.com, which refunded 10% to us when I complained. Here are some of the issues for our 5-nt stay: No bath towels, only hand towels; no closet; no drawers for clothes; the only electrical outlet was a power strip by the TV, which held plugs loosely, if at all; bathroom light on an uncontrollable timer with the switch in the other room; shower spray only hit the opposite wall, over our heads unless we stood on the angled end of the tub; no shower curtain so the whole bathroom was soaked; light by the door would come on and go off at odd hours; no one spoke or understood English; no English on the coffee machine. Again, for $30 a night this would all be fine. But marketing to Americans and gouging on the price without a single accommodation for the upcharge (like a shower curtain or translations on the coffee machine), even during the olympics, is just unacceptable. We tried to adjust the shower head, but it just fell down. See photos below.…
올림픽 관련된 일때문에 2번정도 묵었습니다. 시설은 생각한 그대로 모텔의 모습이지만 저렴한 가격, 위치, 친절함 등을 고려하여 최고입니다.
