Busan Vacations from NT$12,587

The room was not like the posted pictures, there was no tub and the room was rather dirty (smears on the wall, gross faucet, dirty kettle with old water). The entire property also smelled of smoke, though it said non-smoking. However, the hotel staff was very friendly and it was a short walk to the beach.

We stayed 8 nights and had the best experience! The staff was kind and helpful with any recommendations including when my daughter got sick and needed to see doctor. The room was always clean and comfortable with plenty of space for 3 adults. We also enjoyed the breakfast and lunch buffet when we needed a quick easy meal and didn’t want to go out. We were very happy with our stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone! It was a great location in walking distance to everything!

Staff were very friendly and the room was spotless. The location is excellent, with a subway station right next door and plenty of great cafés nearby. Everything felt very clean and well-maintained.

I stayed at this aparthotel for twelve days. Overall, it’s a great value. The area surrounding it is very convenient for buying groceries and beach walking. On the weekdays, I had a very relaxing stay as if in my own home. However, there were some dealbreakers for me. Pros: New construction, new appliances, great kitchen, clean washer AND dryer Double layer windows and doors (equal to quadruple pane glass) top insulation and soundproofing* Beautiful ocean view Radiant floor heating Bathroom with tub Assisted garbage sorting (otherwise it’s so complicated) Thorough housekeeping every three days Helpful and friendly staff! Cons: Check-in process (the confirmation says you’ll receive an email but that didn’t happen, and it took an hour to find the office, which was under NewCZ, not Odays, and at building 104, btw.) Disruptive PA announcements in the apartment 3x/day about containing food smells, being considerate, etc… *Noise on weekends. On weekdays, the stay here was pure bliss. But on the first weekend, some **** people moved in above me and felt the need to rerrange their modular couch every few minutes for hours. I complained about it and they upgraded me to the penthouse floor. On the 2nd weekend, some imbeciles moved in on the floor below and were screaming at 3am. Then a day later at 8am. So loud, that quadruple pane glass and airpods 3 couldn’t block the noise. It’s not the hotel’s fault, but I won’t be back if that’s the kind of guests they have.

It was difficult to find a room option for Shilla Stay on Expedia which fully met our needs so we opted for the one which closest fit our wish for sea views. There’s something about waking up to the sight of the sea and the views from the room did not disappoint. We had a lovely stay! There’s a telephone based queuing system for check in which did not accept uk numbers. Thankfully, one of the staff stepped in quickly.
