Spacious room with an amazing view! Very close to BIFF square, Jagalchi Market, and transit options.
Pros:

The location was really convenient for walking around Nampo-Dong and Jagalchi Market and close to so many restaurants and food stalls. Also a really easy taxi ride to Busan Station to catch the KTX. The views of the ocean and city out of the big picture windows were so beautiful - easily our favorite views during our entire trip! There was a convenience store on the ground floor was a nice addition. The hotel seems kind of worn down from the outside/common areas, but the room itself was quite nice and modern.

Cons:

The smell of Jagalchi market was almost overwhelmingly strong when we were outside the building and I hate to rate the hotel on that, because we didn't notice it inside, but if you are sensitive to smells, it would be worth noting. Also, this was our first experience with the fragile plumbing of SK and were surprised to learn we couldn't put TP in the toilet.

Pros:

Bon hôtel, très bien situé proche des commerces. Le personnel est agréable, accueillant et serviable. Les chambres sont un peu petites, mais elles sont propres et fonctionnelles. Un bon choix pour quelques jours à Busan.

Très décevant
Pros:

L'emplacement

Cons:

Très déçue de cet hotel. 3 nuits et pas de ménage de tout le séjour. Pas d"amenities , chambres vieillotte, pas propre, des sandales et chaussons les mêmes pour tous les clients. Au niveau hygiène c'est horrible. Pour couronner le tout une odeur d"égoût constant dans la salle de bain qui impregnait toute la chambre, dégoûtant.
On a voulu laver le linge il y a des machines à laver mais pas de sèche linge. Donc pas logique et inutilisable
Le seul point positif etait l'emplacement mais c'était vraiment tout. Je ne recommande pas du tout cet établissement

Pros:

Slightly outdated but still functioning fantastically. Great location, good price and lovely ocean views if you choose that type of room. 7 eleven in the same building.

Cons:

Towels and bedding were slightly stained. I think they were still washed and didn’t come off. Lifts were sometimes too busy and took a while.

Pros:

The hotel matched expectations, offering a great view and location.

Cons:

Unfortunately during our booked períod, a leaking was occuring in the lobby, heavily affecting the stay. The lobby was untraversable, and water shortages happened for too long.

Pros:

Ubicación espléndida , bastante cómodo

Cons:

Los ascensores son lentísimos, el desayuno es probablemente el peor que he tenido en un hotel. Poca variedad, totalmente enfocado al público oriental , café horroroso. En el baño hay un ventanuco que da hacia las tuberías y comunica con la habitación de al lado, se oye absolutamente todo
