Sum Guesthouse Busan Station

Location is great as it is walking distance from Busan Station and a few bus stops. A couple of eateries around the neighbourhood, including McDonald's, so it's great if you need a bite anytime. Towels and slippers are provided, including shampoo and soap in the shower room. Toilets are clean.

It's an international hostel with international guests yet all the signs and notes were in korean. Can be very stuffy if the room is full. Also, there were mosquitoes so it was impossible to sleep! Hope they do something about this.

The bed was confortable and the linen was clean. I arrived at Busan station late at night and the hostel being really close to the station, the location is undoubtedly great. The subway is nearby and there are also loads of buses to main tourist spots such as Gamcheon culture village, Jagalchi Market and Gwangalli beach. Also, I was supposed to pay upon booking the bed and they happily agreed for me to pay when checking in.

When I arrived, there was no one at the reception and after waiting for 15 minutes and knocking twice on the staff room's door, someone finally came to check me in. The hostel was gostly quiet and the atmosphere felt very bizarre. It does the job if you want to stay on your own but do not go there if you want to meet other travelers. Also, breakfast was supposed to be included, I went to the lounge area a bit before 9 where I was told it was going to be served and to my surprise, all I found was a toaster but no bread (and nowhere to be found, after looking around), a kettle with a box of tea but only tea dust left, no coffee, and an empty box of fruit loops.
