There is some visible wear-and-tear to the building. There is no lobby - so no restrooms available outside your guest room (there appear to be two on the ground floor but we were told that this did not belong to the hotel??), and no waiting area to gather in if you’re traveling in a group. All front desk reception is handled on the 15th floor, but the elevators are slow (there are only two and they are at opposite sides of the building). The location is convenient - you are steps away from the beach, and across the street is a convenience store. Tip: dining options are better if you walk a bit farther out

Loved the location very accessible to restaurants, subway, buses and a convenient store attached to the hotel. Loved it was very close to the beach and the view of the Gwangan Bridge which lights up at night. The room was a little dated but clean. The staff were very helpful. I would recommend if you want to be in the heart of it all.

Great location, average hotel

My stay here was for 1 night to see the Busan drone show, unfortunately the drone show was cancelled due to weather. As for the hotel amazing views from skyline lounge and rooftop, however there are limited tables with a good view. I booked the lounge package and evening drinks and meal options were great, great choices of local cuisine. Room was a decent size but it was an angled view of the bridge not a direct straight on view. Soundproofing is non existent, you can hear conversations anytime people walked past in the corridor and other toilets flushing. Also no real privacy when using the bathroom so if you feel shy doing your business with others in the room this might need to be considered. As for the area, it is very lovely and you can hear the noise in the hotel so is that is not for you, choose a different hotel. Location - outstanding you are in the heart of everything. Staff are friendly but not overall so. Overall, I could probably do one or two nights in this hotel but nothing more.
