Toyoko Inn Busan Station2

The room is almost identical to that of Japan. Access is good in front of Busan Station. The receptionist is very helpful because he can speak Japanese. The customer base is larger in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and a little more Japanese. A free breakfast is quite crowded. There are three elevators before check-out, but they are not functional and are rather crowded. The conditioner in my bathroom is probably piled up and doesn't come out easily.

The rooms are small, yes, but if you managed to put and hang your stuff properly, then it is not an issue. The place is clean and the Wifi speed is very fast. The people at the front desk are friendly and helpful. The biggest impression from my side is the excellent breakfast with a Korean touch. In the rush hour, it can be a bit crowded in the canteen, but the staff has done an amazing job to always make sure that there is always food no matter how many people there are. The lifts are separated to go to odd and even numbered floors, so that’s also a hit when there are so many floors. Overall, this inn is a great value for money if you only need a place to sleep pairing with a nice, hot shower and a heartly Korean breakfast. One big plus to the free pajamas provided to every guests!

Good place to stay in Busan, about 600m from Exit 17 of Jungang station. Bus stop was in front of the hotel. Staff was friendly with decent English. The room was basic. Why I rated it 3/5 stars? - We found long hairs on table and on bed sheet once getting in the room. - Sound proof was an issue. While I could not hear the engine sound from the street, I could hear people in the next room talking to each other. And whenever someone closed the doors, it was like an earthquake in my room. - Every morning, my room was covered by the food smell, probably from the restaurant on the 2nd floor. - Breakfast was okie. However, since it was free for everyone, the restaurant was chaoticly crowded. - Elevators were so slow and ineffective. One was for all floors, one for the odd numbered ones, and another one for the even numbered ones. Ridiculously, the "even" elevator was also used for Floor 23. Is 23 an even number?
