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.

Just a stone’s throw from Busan Station in a quiet but safe street, super clean and nicely decorated, bunks are comfortable with ample luggage storage. But best of all is the kindness and hospitality of the owner Mr Choi. In all my years of hostel stays I’ve never had an owner give me medicine on hearing I had a cold or feed guests dinner and drinks each night. It was amazing and if I return to Busan, I’d definitely be staying here again.

Everything was great. The staff is very friendly, helps in the chat with any questions promptly. The location is excellent, the center, near a large metro line. I spent 3 weeks in this place, it is very convenient that there is a small kitchen and a washing machine - this is what you need for a long trip. I would love to come back here again.

It's the perfect place to stay if you're traveling solo. I met so many nice people here which I didn't expect. The single room was spacious and it even had a safety locker.

All hostels in Busan

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.

    The dorm sizes were quite large, and I liked that the floors are gender-separated. The bathrooms and showers were always clean. The common area is great for meeting people, the wifi works throughout the hostel, and it is overall in a great location!
