    “A place with perfect overall balance praised by picky people.”

    There’s no need to say much; it’s perfect overall. I hope this accommodation doesn’t become too famous. The cleanliness, staff service, amenities, bed condition, accommodation condition, payment system, and the location of the light buttons, etc. I’m truly satisfied and leaving with a good impression.

    The sandwich breakfast is excellent, there is no noise problem at all, and the desserts and beverages at the newly opened café on the first floor are also very good. The bedding is nice and clean. It’s a small but well-organized hotel. I highly recommend it.

    “Like home, comfortable, and a 100% visit doctor.”

    The best part was the staff, who were incredibly kind. I really appreciated their always smiling faces and friendly responses. I stayed for multiple nights, and thanks to them, I had a really comfortable time. The room was very clean and spacious, making it a great place to stay. The bedding was soft and the bed was wide and fluffy, so I slept well without waking up even once. The breakfast was very satisfying. The sandwiches were delicious, and the juice, coffee, and yogurt made for a perfect spread. Unless you absolutely need a sea view, I highly recommend it. The transportation is good, there are many restaurants, the roads are clean and quiet, and overall, thanks to the hotel, I am leaving with a positive image of Gangneung. I would love to come again if I get the chance.

    “Healing trip with friends”

    I went on a 1-night, 2-day trip to Gangneung with my friends, and for this trip, I wanted to stay in the city, so I booked a room at De Hong Hotel. It is located in the city center of Gangneung, has excellent access to good restaurants and convenience, and the room condition is top-notch for the price. However, the parking is mechanical, so it might be inconvenient for people who are not familiar with mechanical parking.

    “Accommodation with good cost performance.”

    The room was neat and spacious. It is located in a commercial area near the university, so although I didn't use them, there are many restaurants nearby. However, there is also a nightlife area, so it could be noisy, but there was no noise during my stay. Additionally, there was a famous bakery nearby that was delicious.
