5.5
Multiple reviews report poor cleanliness: stains around sinks and on linen, wet/mildewed bathroom floors and corners, hair on combs, used soap/toothpaste/shampoo debris and insect bites mentioned — clearly a significant negative.
Service
9
Service is often praised: staff described as nice and friendly, receptionist accommodated linen change and helped confirm bookings; hotel allowed free rebooking after a typhoon — generally strong service.
Location
9.5
Location repeatedly highlighted as excellent: very close to Nampo station, BIFF, Jagalchi/fish market, Lotte Department Store and many markets; convenient for sightseeing and dining/shopping.
Room Quality
7.5
Rooms are spacious and beds comfortable, some rooms include bathtubs and good ambience, but multiple guests note dated decor, AC issues (not cooling) and some reports of bugs and other wear — mixed quality.
Amenities
8.8
Amenities are generally positive: free bottled water in fridge, bathrobes and bath area appreciated, free parking reported by one guest, and Wi‑Fi signal noted as strong.
Value for Money

Many reviews explicitly call this good value or great price for the location and room size; repeatedly described as inexpensive compared to alternatives.
Food and Beverage
8.2
Standard quality for this hotel tier.
Overall Experience
8.1
Overall a positive experience driven by location, friendly staff and strong value, tempered by recurrent cleanliness and some room-maintenance issues (AC, dated decor, occasional pests).

南浦洞の穴場ホテル！
Pros:

部屋の広さ、設備、立地、どれをとってもこの値段で泊まれるのは最高！靴を脱いで上がるタイプの部屋だったのも、小さな子ども連れには良かった。また釜山に行くときは確実にリピートします。

Cons:

ラブホテルの雰囲気が残っているので、思春期の子どもは連れていけないかも。ホテルスタッフは英語が通じないが、逆に簡単な単語のみで話しかけると理解してもらえることがあるのでそんなに不便ではなかった。

Pros:

Sì trova in una zona carina

Cons:

La stanza era sporca, ho trovato peli di barba nel lavandino e odore di fumo. Lo staff non parlava affatto inglese e la struttura in generale era molto datata

Non consiglio
Pros:

Un punto a favore è sicuramente la posizione, a pochi passi dalla stazione di Nampo

Cons:

La camera era sporca ed era al limiti della decenza, asciugamani macchiate seppur “”””lavate””””, un bagno sporco e ci abbiamo trovato dei peli attaccati alla saponetta e al wc, il condizionatore perdeva acqua e siamo stati costretti a dormire senza. La torcia d’emergenza si è staccata improvvisamente dal muro perché era attaccata con una quantità importante di colla oramai secca da tentativi precedenti. Non consiglio

Praticamente tutto. Dalla posizione centrale dell'hotel. Lo staff la grandezza della camera ( wow) e la pulizia. In più frigorifero con due bibite e 8 bottigliette di acqua. Senza supplemento. In più vasca idromassaggio. Praticamente per me e per la mia compagna perfetto

雖然！！但是！！
Pros:

我們因為颱風航班取消，旅程改期，已經過免費取消的時候，但飯店還是讓我們免費改期入住。

地理位置非、常、好，南浦站7號出口上來沒多久就是飯店；房間的空間很大；行李可以check in 前 或者check out 後寄放；
冰箱內有準備水給房客；燈光打下去有氛圍感

Cons:

我覺得飯店偏老舊，衛生程度真的有待加強。雖然有打掃，但是浴室地板上整片濕濕的，浴室拖發霉、房間邊角也有積灰發霉；梳子上有頭髮、給我們用過的肥皂、牙膏，還有洗髮精裡面不知道有甚麼東西掉到裡面。
電燈有些不好關、難按，我們一度以為有個燈關不掉；冷氣有夠冷，預設11度，我們不會調....
大家自己評估這個衛生程度決定是否下訂
