Bexco Hostel B&B

I cannot express how valuable this hostel was to me, and I’m forever grateful that I stumbled upon it! The location is absolutely perfect. You’re just a 3-minute walk from Gwangalli Beach, and every Saturday there’s a drone show with the entire beachfront filled with people. There is so much to see and do around Gwangalli Beach, and you’re also only about a 10-minute walk from the major bus stops, making it very easy to get around Busan. The rooms are soundproof. I couldn’t hear anyone in the hallway or around the common areas once I was in my room, which made it so easy to relax and sleep. One small thing to know: you do need to take your shoes off when you enter the room area. This is customary in many Asian countries, so just be prepared for that. Breakfast is self-serve, and you’re expected to clean up after yourself, but the owner provides eggs, bread, jam, fruit, coffee, bottled water, and all kinds of ramen that you can enjoy! There’s also a water purifier that provides room-temperature water, hot water, and even ice — which was incredibly convenient. Every morning I would see the owner and his friend, and they were always so sweet and friendly. They would greet me with a “Good morning,” and it really made the hostel feel welcoming and homey. There is a washer in the kitchen area if you need to do laundry, and you can hang your clothes to dry on the rooftop clothesline. The Wi-Fi was also great — there’s one network in the rooms and another in the common areas, and both worked perfectly. There isn’t a refrigerator in the room, but the hostel has a fully equipped kitchen where you can prepare whatever you’d like. Plus, the market is literally just down the street, so getting food and supplies is incredibly easy. Overall, I had such a wonderful experience here. The location, cleanliness, amenities, and especially the kindness of the owner made my stay so memorable.

It had an amazing location, there were Buses like 8min away that would go straight to the main stations and also shopping streets, The Beach was nearby and the view was amazing, from the bedroom and from the rooftop. The Host was such a nice guy and you could make yourself ramen which you actually could choose from multiple and also cook your own food in the shared kitchen in general

For fruits, you had to buy your own and store them in your room or you had to take some quick or else they were gone.

* Located conveniently near Gwangalli beach, ~10+min walking distance to the beach area to watch the drone show (on Saturday) * Lots of food and shops around the area * Helpful Mr Pil, thank you

* A little messy and cluttered in the main area but I guess it adds to the vibe too la HAHA

1.The host was lovely and spoke great English. He responded well to my questions and seemed to care about the guests. 2. The location is convenient with easy access to the beach and to Line 2 of the Busan Metro. 3. While the breakfast was very basic there were plenty of options for toast as well as, cereal and spicy noodles. 4. The wi-fi was free and great.

1 My room wasn't clean on arrival with hair and stained sheets. While the host did clean and made an effort when requested, the stains remained suggesting that they need new sheets. I wasn't the only guest with this issue. I'd rather wait longer to check in rather than being given a dirty room. 2. The host is difficult to contact out of hours as you need a Korean phone number to call him unless you want to pay international rates. The hotel needs to use WhatsApp or KakaoTalk to make it easier for international guests. 3. While the location is convenient it's not the nicest area, as it's in the middle of the fish market. 4. The decor both outside and inside needs maintenance, as it is rundown.
