Wonderful hostel — modern, clean, and very well-equipped. It’s a self check-in system, so you won’t meet any staff, but the instructions are very clear and easy to follow. The hostel has all the facilities you might need, and they even offer a welcome basket with nice touches like a facial mask, coffee, and more — a very kind gesture. If you book the E bed in the female dorm, you might get lucky like I did: it’s a lower bunk with no bed above, so you have more space and privacy. Overall, I really appreciated the experience. Excellent value for money! There are so many restaurants, Olive Young…etc at 2min away from the hostel. It’s very useful.

I really enjoyed my stay here! The owner is so nice and goes out of her way to make everyone feel welcomed. I really enjoyed chatting with her and the other guests in the mornings while having breakfast. It felt like a home away from home. My room was very spacious and well-equipped. The whole place is spotlessly clean, new and very safe and quiet. I had no problems with anything. The location is excellent, only about a 10-minute walk from Busan station from where you can take the bus or metro to all the sights and beaches.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The dorm sizes were quite large, and I liked that the floors are gender-separated. The bathrooms and showers were always clean. The common area is great for meeting people, the wifi works throughout the hostel, and it is overall in a great location!
