A hotel with a strange name provides one of the best value on my trip in Korea. The location of the hotel is definitely not in one of the main tourist drags in Busan but is well connected to the rest of Busan with the Beomil subway station within a 5 min walk. The outside of the hotel and the surroundings look odd when we first arrive. It is closed to several local clothing market and also "Gold Theme St". It looks messy and definitely not a tourist area. However, that adds to the charm of the hotel. We arrived early and a nice man directed us to the check-in desk on the 2nd floor. It was the smallest check-in desk I have ever seen and it was located inside a restaurant. However, the staff spoke English and quickly helped us store our luggage until we could check-in. The locale and environment did make me a wonder if I made a good choice. However, once we entered the room, all concerns were put aside. The room was well appointed with a small kitchen and a separate washer/dryer. We even had a nice area by the window where we can do work on the computer. The room was not big but was very comfortable. The only complaint I have is the lack of outlets in convenient places. However, it was very quiet. There was a coffee shop right on the 1st floor and a GS25 convenient store right next door. As it is a local area, there are also several restaurants closed by but be prepared for being rejected as they don't seem to have experience with tourists. Regardless, we were still able to find several restaurants that welcomed us. With the subway closed by and several of the attractions within $10 of an uber ride, we did not have any issues visiting the sites around Busan. You are also 2 subway stop from Seomyeon which is the one of the main areas to visit in Busan for shopping and restaurants. There is also a Uniqlo within 15 min walk from the hotel along with a Lotte department store. Don't let the appearance or the local environment fool you. Even the funny name might be concerning. This is a good hotel in a great area. I would not hesitate to stay there again!
