Introduction
Located about 70 minutes drive away from the Jeju international airport in Seogwipo, South Korea, the Cornerstone Hotel (코너스톤호텔) is a 1-star budget motel located within the Seogwipo city center. The key appeal of Cornerstone Hotel is as a short-stay stopover at the south of the island, within walking distance of the city, with most travellers staying just 1 or 2 nights at most.


Ambience
Ambience at Cornerstone Hotel is cozy, almost cramped. Basic with limited views of the city, the place is functional and clean. You'll see a lot of students on holiday opting to stay here, thanks to their budget-friendly prices. Don't expect much frills or luxury. There's a rooftop terrace offering views of the city, which is particularly beautiful during sunset.


Room
Rooms at Cornerstone Hotel have a frustrating power layout, preventing use of some of the power sockets. I ended up spending quite a bit of time re-arranging the furniture in room just to find a comfortable fit for power. The rooms are also exposed to harsh sunlight during the day, making them really warm, so I kept the blackout curtains closed throughout to cool the place. The bed is suitable for individuals, less comfortable for couples. The cable television, wi-fi, mini refrigerator, and bathroom are basic and functional. Basically, we tolerated the room during our stay, which was fortunately short.


Food
Food at Cornerstone Hotel is self-prepared, thanks to their well-stocked pantry, and common kitchen. For breakfast, supplies of toasted bread, strawberry jam, white rice, soy sauce, and sliced cheddar cheese are all free. I purchased instant noodles for KRW ₩2, and a free egg is provided. With a CU convenience store nearby, it's easy to get more food and drinks.


Service
Service at Cornerstone Hotel is hardworking. The single staff manning the counter oversees guest services (check-in/out, request fulfilment), parking valet services, waste disposal, and security, though housekeeping is thankfully through a team of cleaners. Because of limited parking on-site, the staff doubles as parking valet to park and position your vehicle. They also helpfully guide guests in using the free washer and dryer, and use of cooking equipment in the common kitchen.


Facilities & Activities
The facilities and activities at Cornerstone Hotel are typical of a motel, with the common kitchen and common dining room a great place for chilling, working, or interacting with others. There's free self-service laundry with the shared washer and dryer, and the ground floor parking area is guarded by a fierce dog (on a leash). Overall, the Cornerstone Hotel is decent for short stays of 1 or 2 days, except that I dislike the room power layout and really have to tolerate it.
