Obong-gol Vacations from NT$9,310

Location was good! Right in front of bus station and subway stops. Very close to shopping areas and local markets. Staff were friendly and spoke English. Elevator available. My room was outdated and you could tell the walls and shower fixtures needed maintenance. For cleanliness, I had to ask for linen change because there was hair on the bed from a previous tenant. Mold and mildew were present in the room I stayed in, and traces of clothing particles like loose thread were on the floor. The good thing was working air conditioning, free waters for each day of your stay. Didn’t like the fact that they didn’t have full size bath towels, only hand towels for your shower.

The location of the hotel was in the middle of everything happening from night life to shopping with a lot of food options from street food to sit-down, close to a lot of shopping from Lotte department store to smaller shops. Also, it was central to all the medical spa and cosmetic surgery facilities. We were a bit skeptical when we arrived because the hotel is located above a bowling alley and the first floor is open to anyone on the street, but it still felt safe because those without a hotel key wouldn't be able to get to the hotel room floors. I liked that my room was cleaned daily but no amenities like tooth brush, tooth paste, comb, etc. beyond towels and two bottles of water. However, their laundry machines worked very well. Even though they only had 3 washers and 3 dryers, it worked out and cleaned/dried my laundry so I can continue on my journey to Japan after visiting Busan. The staff were fine not as friendly as people in Seoul and the English speaking staff were limited. One down side was that I didn't like that we had to put a cash deposit to use their hotel umbrellas on a rainy day. All hotels I've stayed at offered umbrellas for free when it rains...so this is something to reconsider to improve their customer service. Overall, the hotel stay was good and I would recommend for first timers visiting Busan who want to be in the heart of night life, food, and shopping, and I liked the hotel's clean and large size rooms.

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.

It was a nice hotel, rooms are spacious, staff were friendly and Starbucks is right next door (and Olive Young). Basically all you need.

Room wasn’t that clean and there was damage to the walls, most likely from luggage. However, the room was larger than normal which was the only positive. Staff were not always available at front desk. Location ok. No breakfast available even though website says there is.
