숙소가 오래되긴 했으나 깔끔하고 괜찮았습니다. 시설내부의 리모델링이 필요한듯하긴 했으나 하루 잘 보낻고 갑니다

Kensington Hotel Seorak
Facility is quite old but it seems its maintenance is OK. I do not know this "Kensington" brand has something related to UK brand. Location is perfect if you focus on Seorak national mountain hike (of course it is close to beach resort). Not so much facility inside but breakfast food is excellent ...

Mrs Kim was an amazing host with a beautiful smile. Rooms were clean and a good value for our budget. We didnt lack anything there. A good continental breakfast got us going in the morning and she helped us with finding places to visit. If we return we know where we are welcomed!
