This was the first time I live in hostel. I was having a super great experience there. The room was super clean and even the first day I own the whole 8 people room. The owners are so kind that she even cook some dishes sharing with us. The pasta was super good. I really really enjoy staying there and if I will go Busan i will also stay there again!!!! I was super fun!!! :)

A perfect hostel

I dont usually do written reviews but this one deserves some extra of my time as a form of appreciation as this place is truly exceptional. I've been treated more like a member of a family than another transaction. Soo and Veronica were very helpful answering tons of my questions and advising on transportation and attractions but also introducing more to their culture and habits. And these movie/ gaming nights!  On top of that they were taking care of me when i got sick. Place itself has a very good location as its literally 2 mins from bus, train and metro stations. There is also plenty of places to eat and bars. Spotlessly clean, just perfect. Thanks a lot girls and wish you all the best!

整個環境是溫馨風格，服務人員態度良好，那邊有一個打工渡假的台灣女孩，她很親切跟我分享當地好玩的地方。房間的床有點薄，房間的隔音效果沒有這麼好，這裡沒有附早餐。

全体的に綺麗。とても快適に過ごせました。お茶がタダで飲めるし、駅、フェリー乗り場からも歩ける距離です。スタッフの方も親切で日本語も話せます。チェックアウト時にお菓子をもらえてほっこりしました。オンドルもあって夜も暖かかったです。

아주 좋아요

부산역 바로 옆에 위치하고 있고, 모든 시설이 아기자기하고 깨끗하고 보안도 잘 되어있고 아주 편안합니다. 다만 수건 및 세면도구는 각자가 챙겨오거나 없으면 체크인할때 수건 대여하거나 세면도구는 구입 하셔야 합니다. 칫솔은 따로 판매도 안합니다. 바로 옆에 편의점은 있습니다. 그리고 체크아웃후에는 하우스내 공동공간에서 잠시라도 머물수가 없는것이 조금 아쉽더군요.. 즉 체크아웃하면 그냥 갈길 가야 합니다.ㅎㅎ

부산역 도보 3분, 깔끔하고 심플한 게스트하우스

생긴 지 얼마 되지 않은 곳이라 역시 깔끔하고 인테리어도 좋았습니다. 8인실을 이용했는데 빽빽하게 침대만 있지 않았고, 넓은 공간이어서 더 좋았고요. 다만, 수건과 세면용품이 구비되어 있는줄 알았는데 수건은 대여, 세면용품은 판매하더라고요. 저는 급하게 예약하고 왔는지라 모르고 갔는데, 이용하실 분들은 참고하시길 바랍니다. 체크아웃 시간이 7시부터인데 저는 차시간이 매우 새벽이었는지라 원래 시간보다 훨씬 일찍 했습니다. 저때문에 얼마 못주무신 사장님께 죄송했네요ㅠ 그래도 친절하게 응대해주신 사장님 정말 감사했습니다. 다른 게스트하우스와 비교 끝에 이용했는데 지인들에게도 많이 추천하고 싶습니다.
