The best hostel I've been to! The facilities are very clean and comfortable. They organize a lot of great events that allow people to socialize and meet other solo travelers which is amazing. The staff is very friendly and interactive with the guests which creates a very enjoyable environment.

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.

In germany we would call the owner of the hostel „maus“ . This phrase stands for a caring, sweet and helpful person with a nice personality. The owner greeted us always with a smile, showed us what to visit and treated usw with alot of Snacks and drinks in the hostel. When i left he even gave me selfmade kimbab for my train journey, soo sweet. Thanks for the nice stay!!! The hostel is very clean and located right at busan station. You can visit every Place from the hostel in a short bus ride and there are various shops around. The owner has travelled to alot of place which you can see because of they way the hostel is designed. It got everything you need for a nice and safe stay. Toilets are clean, towels are provided and the kitchen is modern. If you read till here, i promise its totally worth to stay here!!!!

I keep coming back here! I have been to many places/guest houses/hostels/rooms in South Korea. But this pension is simply unique, because of the service of the staff, the hygiene and the facilities. Because they are loft beds, you can choose where you want to sleep in your own room. And it just makes you feel like you are in South Korea. The spaces are not as small as others I've stayed in. And everything you need is there or available.

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.
