쏘타스위트 속초 월드스테이트

It's located right next to the Sokcho Tourist Seafood Market and so many other places that are a must visit. Even though it's not so close to Sokcho Beach, it's close to transport so can access it easily. It's 20-30min walk to Yeounggeumjeong and like 10-15min to Abai village so it's perfect! Also I stayed for 2 nights, and I was able to request for cleaning the next day which I forgot, but they hung spare towels and waters which was so thoughtful. Would definitely recommend. Also the balcony views are immaculate! Make sure to get Mountain view room.

The stool wasn't as clean, but I didn't use it so it's ok. Also hotel name was Sunrise Hotel, maybe they share the hotel but it was a little confusing so I had to ask the reception. But reception is for Sunrise Hotel and World State is just self-checkin budget friendly(?) hotel.

The lake view was nice.

Even if cooking is not allowed, I would like to see plates, cups and spoons provided.

Great location near the central market. Easy to reach from Sokcho Express Bus Terminal. Convenience store inside the hotel, many cafes and restaurants around it, too. Size of the room was decent, price was good and lovely view of the bay.

Communication with the person that is managing the bookings is not great. I asked specifically if receiving the check-in instructions to a foreign phone number would be ok weeks in advance. No answer until the evening before check-in saying they can't find my booking and I should provide booking details. Fortunately by then I had a Korean phone number to receive the booking confirmation and instructions. The floor of the room wasn't clean - a lot of dust, dirt marks and strands of hair. No room slippers provided which made the first point even worse. The chairs also had marks and crumbs on them. No hooks near the entrance for coats/jackets. Only one coffee and one tea capsule for two people for 2 nights. Complimentary water bottles were not refilled (probably have to be requested with a clean up/towel change which we did not need for 2 nights!). The mosquito screen in front of the balcony door was not properly installed which lead to a lot of mosquitos coming into the room when opening the door which was quite annoying. Only tiny trash can (even after 2 nights we already had so much plastic and nowhere to put it).

Nice view on the bridge.

Checking in was a pain, we didn’t receive any code and when some sleepy person (4pm) finally reacted we found ourselves in front of a closed door having to access a link with the only Wi-Fi available 8 floors below. Breakfast is not included but guest are not allowed to use the kitchen in the room (high fines for “cooking”) and not even a teaspoon is available.

I think it would great if you could actually cook in the room since the facilities and the products are available. Secondly it would be amazing if since there is a washing room, you gave detergent for laundry.

that the washing machine downstairs was 5000 won
