    It was the best hostel I’ve stayed in and I’ve been travelling for ten weeks! Lovely staff, clean and very nicely furnished, private beds that are very comfortable and a really nice breakfast! I loved it

    the heating was difficult to turn down in the bedrooms and the free breakfast didn't cater for anyone who didn't eat meat. But that's to be expected in busan.

    The dorm was quite small and the bed pods would be better with solid doors rather than curtains, but the hotel is beautiful and such good value

    Not feeling like a backpacking hostel. No friendly vibes, no real common rooms, but everything is fine to stay a night and leave.

    Nice spacious hostel near the beach.

    • Bed in 4-Bed Female Dormitory Room

    The bins weren't emptied enough, staff behind counter waited for cleaners to do this, toilet paper bins overflowing. Would have been nice to have a bigger communal area to sit in. My main issue was the security... there were no locks on individual doors, just the main door which was left open everyday to air the room. So I had to leave my laptop in the room and anyone could have walked in from the street.

    Nice little private room with door (had to store luggage on outside of door but not really an issue). Bathrooms really big with lots of showers. Separate floors for males and females. The location is super close the beach and easy walk to market. Kitchen kept clean and easy to cook food. fresh water supply. I felt very comfortable here and would stay again.

    Only minor tips for others: self-prepare the slipper for going between bedroom <> bathroom, only have 1 round medium mirror at shared bathroom(2), room exactly sized 1 single bed 😂 Perhaps staffs to prioritize cleaning the bathroom at their end or beginning shift when room is fully booked.

    Rate 8.7 !! Bedding was so fluffy and comfy. Shared kitchen was really nice. Overall Clean. Great great location 👍🏻 attached cafe for coffee to go was so good~

    The bed had a strange mattress protector which made a lot of noise every time you move, and it would make you slide around. The aircon was very temperamental, one night it totally switched off causing the room to go incredibly humid and made everything wet. I almost slipped in the floor a couple of times because of how wet the floor got from the humidity. After 8pm there is no staff so they won’t sort any issues out for you until the next day. You aren’t able to properly lock your room door when you go out, so you have to lock it from the inside and make sure you carry a Q-tip/cotton bud so you can lock the lock through when you return to your room. I have been travelling for a while so I have a big backpack which I was unable to fit in my pod. You are provided with two towels but they are basically hand towels, they barely wrap around you when you get out the shower so you have to try and dry yourself in the hot, steamy shower room and then are to put some underwear on. You aren’t allowed to eat in the “gallery” for whatever reason, but this isn’t ideal when any more than 2 people are eating at the small table in the kitchen. Not only that, the majority of the time that table is so dirty from people no cleaning up after themselves. The bins in the kitchen barely get emptied either so they are constantly overflowing causing bad smells in that area.

    The pod room was a decent size, you can basically stand up in it. Plenty of showers so you’re never really waiting to use one. Location is great, short walk to the beach and main area of Haeundae. Staff were fairly friendly. Great value for money

    You get a key to your room where there are 4 little rooms with beds. This key only locks the main door for the 4 little rooms. You can only lock your own little room when you're sleeping so I would advise taking your valuables with you when you are not in your room (no stealing happened but still be careful)

    I loved the whole feel of the place. Even though it was a hostel it was very fancy. All the facilities were clean and accessible. It was a very pretty place that totally met my expectations. The stand-alone room was very comfortable to stay in for a few nights.

    It's a shared room but you have you own cubicle for privacy. You get to meet a lot of different people. Location is also good and close to the beach. You just hope your roommates isn't too noisy haha.

    1. I would suggest getting blinds at the bathroom (common area)- I felt a little bit uncomfortable coming out from the shower with these windows, and hooks to store clothes outside the shower room during shower time.

    1. Location is perfect. 5 min from the beach. Close to 2 subway stations and buts stops to go to any part of the city. 2. Women only floor and women only rooms. Convenient for solo travelers as you have you're privat small room with the door, 2 sockets and lights. No one really disturbs with late lights on or early departure. Room is air conditioned. 3. All the facilities are clean and comfortable to use. 4. Kitchen facilities are available, can cook or store products at the fridge. 5. Shower has shampoo, body wash and rinse. 2 towels are provided.

    Slight concern of security, but not so serious as long as you are planning on cardying valuables with you during your trip. By the time of my visit(early September), the area around the hostel smelt like suage so bad, I could smell it in your bed. The hostel is not the one to blame, but definitely worth considering when you are trying to book.

    Best bang for your bucks, the place is really clean. Service is nice and check in process was easy. Strongly recommend if you are traveling alone during winter and wanna hang out in haeundae area.

    The toilets and showers were always dirty. Girls didn't respect anything, they put hair everywhere. Also no garbage can in the dorm so people used the ones in the toilets for everything (food, dirty paper, bottles...) and sometimes it smelled very bad because of food trash.

    The fact that you can have your own space and close your door. And it's very calm.
