Commodore Hotel Pohang

I stayed at this hotel while waiting for my apartment in the city to be vacated. I was just looking for a place to stay but it turned out to be in a fairly interesting place. The steel mill has a light show almost every night and a nice beach with plenty of nearby cafes and restaurants has one of the better views. There was a mixture of dining options, I chose a pretty nice Italian place. It should be noted that Pohang is know for its seafood (it is a port) and most restaurants will focus on one kind of a seafood dish or another. It should be noted that I speak pretty good Korean and this place is a bit away from the traditional tourist options. Since it is a bit away from the English-speaking centers I suggest learning some key phrases or going with a translation app. This hotel is about 30 seconds - 1 minute from a bus stop. The buses run to and from the main bus terminal in the city. If you want to get on an early bus to another city this would be a good place to stay. Is is about 20-25 minutes on the 130 line to and from the bus station. The train station is also on this side of the city. When I was there the front desk was staffed by someone with good-enough English to check in and ask simple questions. Overall I would recommend this place if you get a good deal and need somewhere to stay for a night or two. Small continental breakfast was cheap. Eggs, cereal, kimchi soup, bread, and jam. Fairly standard.

the hotel was clean and looked modern. hallways were clean and staff was very friendly

마치 일본의 료칸을 찾아간 느낌이었다고나 할까요... 조용하고 한적한 느낌~ 건물 외관은 낡았지만, 내부 시설은 현대적이었고, 무엇보다, 데스크에서 우리를 맞이한 매니저(?) 지배인(?) 님이 나이 지긋하신 분이어서, 정말 제대로 대접받는 느낌이었습니다~ 저흰 묵을 때 욕실을 주로 보는데요, 욕조, 넘넘 마음에 들었고,,, 타월도 충분해서 좋았습니다. 어매니티도 품격 있었고요~ 다만, 수압이 낮아서 변기 사용에 살짝??? 불편함은 있었지만, 큰 문제는 없었습니다~ 2층 객실을 이용했어서, 오션뷰는 아니었지만, 그래도 울창한 소나무 숲으로 둘러싸여 있어서, 아침에 일어나 창문을 열었을 때, 상쾌하고 좋았어요~~~ 다음에도 또 들를 생각입니다~ 참참,,, 저희 같은 뚜벅이 여행자분들은, 숙소 바로 앞에 버스정류장이 있어서 편리할 거에요~ 130번, 110번 등이 3~4분 간격으로 계속 와서 죽도시장이나 시내 쪽으로 가니깐 시내 여행 다니는 데에 좋더라고요~~
