Smile Resort

- great location, just a few minutes walk from the bus stop and small shopping district w/ restaurants and convenience store; I only ate in 1 restaurant but there are a few others as well, just take note of the early closing times - room has enough space for my things and to move around; big windows - room has TV, small towels, body wash, shampoo, toothpaste, fridge, tissues, slipper - they have a free small breakfast which I did not avail so cannot comment; free ramyun station; microwave in common area; bottled waters in the room - host/owner was nice and smiley - location is a few minutes walk from the Seorak Skywalk

Great location, convenient to the park, and the couple running the hostel were very kind and helpful. The breakfast was a nice start to the day.

This wasn’t the property itself, but we did discover that many of the nearby restaurants closed around 7:00–something to keep in mind if you have a long day of hiking planned!

Location was great. Staff was amazing! Owner is sweet lady with a wonderful SMILE!! The name suits her- very hospitable. Dinner by the river was great. Picked up a pizza at the National park area. Location to bus stop was perfect.

Beds were hard. Area around Smile was very run down.

Friendly staff, cute dog on the property, close to Seoraksan (bus stop at 5 minutes from the park entrance), very comfy beds, spacious.

The property is rather old and not well maintained. It needs some renovation and deep-cleaning (like many things in this specific village/area surrounding the property).
