Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Not so clean. Sand in the bathroom, stains on blanket. No bed sheets were used, only mattress topper. The interior is very old.
Nice decent ocean view, 5minutes walk to the nearest beach and convenience store. Location not too bad.
The person behind the desk refused to allow my wife to have her service dog with her.
He was very unprofessional, ignorant, and rude as we educated him on service animals and the rules South Korea has provided for service animals. He kept saying he didn't believe us even after we provided documentation and the service ID number.
He then belittled my wife and laughed in her face by stating she didn't need her dog since I was there and suggested keeping him in the car overnight which is completely unethical.
He then contacted an agent from Expedia where our booking was originally made. This agent was just as rude and ignorant. We explained the situation on how we booked this room for 2 nights and how we had a service animal and the man behind the desk was not cooperating. I explained how we had shown proof to her several times without success. She chose to go off of his word entirely while going in circles, talking over us, and not listening to the entirety of the situation.
She then thought she was doing us a favor and randomly suggested we could stay for 1 night to 'help us out,' but the 2 days we booked and already paid for were not allowed and the hotel was 'full' the 2nd night we booked. She continued to offer a stay of one night and also kept saying they needed proof.
After approximately 2 hours of ridicule and standing in their lobby, we were finally able to have both the Expedia agent and worker at the hotel lobby accept her service animal. Know the laws.
시설이 오래됐고 애견동반 가능한 펜션인데도 청소관리 잘하셔서 머무는데 불편 전혀없었음. 취사불가능한 룸을 예약하면 2층에 있는 일반 아파트키친같은 공동키친 이용가능함. 강아지산책시키시는 가족들도 계시던데 워낙 조용해서 강아지있는줄도 몰랐음. 무엇보다 가장 좋은 점은 걸어서 1분컷으로 길만 건너면 사천진해변 하평해변이고 상대적으로 한가해서 여유롭고 서핑강습받기에도 좋음.
Our stay was wonderful! The view from the pension was amazing and our kids loved the room so much that they wanted to stay in instead. The owners were super nice. They gave us a bottle of wine when they found out I was celebrating my birthday. :)
The pension was walking distance to the beach, cafes and restaurants. Definitely recommend staying there!

The room itself was as advertised. The ocean view waa beautiful from our room. It could have been cleaner. It wasn't filthy but it needed dusting. There was no Wi-Fi as advertised. There was a good deal of construction going on. We went for a romantic getaway however we were woken up on a Sunday morning before 9am to LOUD banging coming from the room next door which they were renovating. When this continued for an HOUR we decided to just get up, shower and leave. However at that point there was no water. Evidently they turned it off for whatever repairs they were doing and didn't tell us. So we just ended up leaving early.
The location is great, right across the road from a nice beach. They also have a comfortable bed. However, the rooms need some updating and some things are falling apart.
Very nice people, a beautiful view, and hospitality that you can’t believe. Our son celebrated a birthday while there and they provided a basket of goodies.
The only thing thing I will tell you is that the place was a difficult to find but that is GPS related; not the pension’s fault.
