The entrance to the Grab Ocean Songdo Hotel is located on the 2nd floor, right above a CU convenience store and a coffee shop. Fun fact: did you know that you can conveniently recharge your high pass card at any CU store in Korea? Additionally, the hotel offers a free underground parking garage, although it’s worth noting that the space is quite tight, even by Korean standards. If you happen to have a small car, you can make use of the garage elevator for added convenience.
