Good property, not the best when travelling with kids as the rooms are not as big. However there are lots of dining options and a block away from the haeundae beach, it was easily walkable. Lots of options for dining and convenience; all pretty accessible.

Staff very friendly and housekeeping are very responsive. Lobby can get pretty busy and it is nice being connected to a department mall with a grocery/deli in the basement. The perfume used in the hotel though was pretty strong in the hallways.

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.
