Great location — very close to Haeundae Beach, restaurants, and shopping areas. The staff were kind and helpful. The breakfast was decent considering the price.

A lot of great places to visit. A variety of food. It's a city surrounded by beautiful mountains and located right next to the ocean. There are plenty of nice beaches to visit, such as Songjung where you can surf as well.
