Location is perfect, steps away from Haeundae metro station and beach (5-10 mins walk), and modern rooms (even with a “new”/ fresh smell upon walking in). Plenty of eateries nearby. There’s even a washing machine in the unit (that we didn’t use) - you can buy detergent from the front desk - I don’t see any drying capabilities, but there’s a balcony.
Now, the blinds in our room don’t completely block light (it will be bright during daytime), so bring along an eye mask if that’s a concern. Also, there’s construction happening next to the building, so there were some noise disturbances (nothing too major, but still a concern) in the mornings during our stay. There were also some English communication barriers with staff (and also gadgets like remote controls), but nothing that time, translation apps and hand gestures couldn’t solve. The bed is also on the firmer end (more Korean style I presume). Also do note the 3 pm/ 4 pm (during weekend/ peak days) check in and 11 am checkout time which is slightly later/ earlier than what we’re used to, and that housekeeping happens every 3 days (we stayed for 2 nights, so no room cleaning, but we could exchange for fresh towels from the front desk according to the info sheet).
Overall, I would still stay here if I am to return to Busan as its value is pretty good, and for its new/ modern rooms close to the beach.
