Guest reviews

The location.

Above all, there is something we believe is important to highlight: it is a hotel where they do not perform daily room cleaning or make the beds. We stayed for three days, and during that time, daily cleaning was not done in any of our four rooms. The hotel insists that cleanliness is very important to them. However, if it really were, it is difficult to understand why they do not clean the rooms every day, especially considering the mosquito problems and the cleanliness conditions we found. Additionally, the hotel is located right in front of the fish market, so it is inevitable to think about the smells and the amount of mosquitoes that may be in the area. We had four rooms reserved through two different bookings. On the first day, we arrived very late, but we soon realized that one of the rooms was not in good condition. The floor was full of hairs that stuck to our feet, something especially unpleasant considering that the hotel indicates that guests should go barefoot. Later, we discovered that one of the beds had bloodstains or some red substance on the sheets. There was also dirt on top of the fridge, and there were mosquitoes in the room. In fact, the hotel provides an insecticide in the room in case guests need to use it. In the early morning, we went to reception to explain what had happened and showed the photos we had taken. At first, they apologized and assured us that they would do a deeper cleaning of the room in the morning. However, at 6:00 p.m., after spending the day visiting Busan, we returned, and our room was still not cleaned.

There was a slight bad smell from the pipes or something. They store your luggage but only until 2 pm, then they charge you, they inform you there, but it could be mentioned here to know when booking

It was close to the subway station and the Kkangtong Market was nearby

Convenient transportation, cheap price, high cost performance. It is only a little over two kilometers from Busan Station, very convenient for us to take the high-speed train to Seoul. It is also very close to Gamcheon Culture Village. My friend and I walked there, of course, it was a bit tiring, all uphill. Although it is located at Jagalchi Seafood Market, Red Book says that seafood is overpriced there, so we did not eat seafood there.

You can hear people talking outside the building, not very quiet
