Busan Myungji CielOcean Hotel

On my four-night business stay, cleaning was a recurring problem. There was hair in the drain from the day I checked in, and although I requested cleaning during the stay, nobody came even once. Used plastic bottles were left in the room and my clothes had been tossed into a corner. I wasn’t asking them to unclog the drain or remove the hair, just to clean, but that never happened. The water pressure was weak in some spots, too. I also left my charger at 7 a.m. and checked out at 8. When I called about collecting it four days later, I was told it wouldn’t be kept that long, so I worried it would be lost. I reported it that morning, but they didn’t seem willing to hold it even for a week. It makes me wonder whether the front desk, owner, and housekeeping staff communicate or whether the hotel is being run properly. If you’re not bothered by cleanliness and are sure you won’t leave anything behind, it might still be an option.

It’s clean, and I can see it working for a business trip, like another review said. Still, it feels more like a motel than a hotel and seems dated. The towels were worn out, and when my phone charger didn’t work, I had to borrow one from the front desk.

You can walk to the shopping area in about five minutes, and this is a clean hotel for business stays. Breakfast is ramen, rice, side dishes, and toast. You can even cook the packaged ramen yourself, which is unusual. Parking is a little inconvenient: around 10 cars fit in the lot at ground level, and the rest have to use valet parking in the parking tower.

A lot of people online throw their rubbish away carelessly.
