Booking The Bay

The couch could’ve been more comfortable, but we had a very pleasant stay. Check-in is in a different place from the rooms, so getting there is a little tricky. I’d recommend it to westerners.

The bed was comfortable, though a little small for two, and they honored my request for a quiet room. I was surprised an airbnb had cleaning service every three days. It felt homey and was bigger than I expected, maybe a hostel. Check-in and checkout were quick, with some flexibility to leave as late as 1pm. There are two CUs shops nearby for late snacks, and a security guard was there until late. The rooms and floors need a key card to access, so I felt safe. We weren’t in the central area, and it felt a bit like a ghost town, about 5-10 minutes from busan station toward the port. Still, places were easy to reach and getting around wasn’t hard. Really good stay, and I’d book here again if I come back to Busan.

Only $200 for three nights! The apartment was cozy and clean, and the security staff were friendly. It had a washing machine and dryer, which was handy for drying clothes and jackets. Getting around Busan by bus or train was convenient too. I’d definitely recommend it for a family or anyone traveling with a baby.

The reception is tucked behind the building entrance, so keep an eye out for it. We had trouble figuring out the TV in Korean, and there weren’t any laundry supplies, though the LG freshen up machine was fantastic. The apartment was huge, a 2x2, and clean, tidy, and modern, with a fantastic view. It’s an easy walk to the Busan train station. Best accommodation of our trip, and we’ll stay here again next time in Busan.
