Posizione eccellente, camera spaziosa, forse un po buia.
Pros:

Colazione internazionale, ma niente cappuccino o dolci.
Era più salata .

Cons:

Appena arrovati è stato complicato trovare la reception , perché non c'era nessuna indicazione e quindi vagavamo con tutte le valigie tra ascendori e anditi.
Poi abbiamo risolto grazie all'aiuto di una persona che alloggiava nello stesso hotel.
Dopo la prima notte abbiamo notato che la camera non era stata pulita.
Solo riordinato il letto.
Poi per fortuna, il giorno seguente hanno passato l'aspirapolvere e hanno cambiato asciugamani.
Così fino alla partenza.

Posizione al top per chi ama le passeggiate sulla spiaggia
Pros:

La posizione stupenda in riva al mare e il quartiere circostante pieno di ristoranti con ampia scelta di piatti da provare. Il collegamento con i mezzi di trasporto non manca con i bus di linea o la stazione della metro a 10 minuti a piedi dall'hotel.

Amazing location and great stay!
Pros:

The location is perfect, right in front of Gwangalli Beach, one of the most famous spots in Busan. There are lots of cafés, restaurants, convenience stores, and shops nearby, including places open until very late.

The bed and pillows were comfortable, and the air conditioning was nice and cool. The area felt safe, and the staff were friendly and approachable. For the price, it was definitely worth it. Would happily stay here again! 😊

Cons:

The elevator was a bit slow since there’s only one. Also, the room wasn’t cleaned properly everyday, especially the trash can, which was sometimes left with trash inside.

Pros:

Ogólnie hotel pozytywnie oceniam.
Łóżko wygodne.
Przestronny pokój z dobrym widokiem na plażę.
Na dachu hotelu bardzo dobry punkt widokowy i do odpoczynku.
Śniadania dobre kontynentalne w stylu azjatyckim.
Blisko do plaży i traktu spacerowego.
Ogólnie pozytywnie i nie wpłynęło na całokształt podróży.

Cons:

Słaba kawa.
Minusy też są:
-recepcja na 15 piętrze,
- łazienka, fugi, silikony do poprawy i profesjonalnego wykonania, - klimatyzacja ustawiona bezpośrednio na łóżko co powoduje iż klient po pobycie wyjeżdża z katarem kiedy wcześniej nie miał.
Klimatyzacja wydawała dziwne odgłosy, stukoty co nie pozwalało odpoczywać w ciszy.

Pros:

Fantastische locatie op een paar stappen van het strand en zicht op de iconische Diamond Bridge. Het ontbijt wordt geserveerd met spectaculair uitzicht op Gwangalli. Boek een kamer met uitzicht op het strand om heerlijk wakker te worden! De badkamer os groot en luxueus afgewerkt.!

Cons:

Het enige minpuntje (hoe minimaal ook) er is geen stekker om de waterkoker aan te sluiten aan de minibar waardoor je deze op de grond moet zetten.
