As this hostel opend only this year its facilities are very modern. I stayed in a capsule, it had airconditioning, poweroutlets and a smal closet. And a bed of course. The door of the capsule has an electric lock. The bathroom and shower are very clean and soap, shampoo, conditioner, gel, toothpaste and toothbrush, hairbrush, hairdryer, towels and slippers are all provided. Of course you can use your own stuff as well if you want. There is a kitchen and laundry place. My favourite place is the small lounge, it has desks to sit down and work, and lots of pillows to just chill on from which you can admire the view, as it's on the 11th floor. I had a very pleasent stay here and would 10/10 recommend!!!!

Everything is really clean! The cubes one sleeps in are spacious and well planned: room for your backpack, your day pack, a little desk and mirror. Unfortunately, the walls are a little thin, so if the neighbours are loud you can hear them and the constant noise of the AC ruined my sleep. However, the managing person always made sure after 23h that people were not making noise anymore. Cheap laundry AND dryer available to use from 9-22h. Breakfast is ok: 2 types of cereal and toast. Location is close to street food markets in the evening or cafés during the day. Close to two subways!

I spent just 1 night in Inside Busan, but I have a very positive impression of this place. The owner was welcoming and treated me really well, she gave me advices on what places to visit. The room was quite spacious for 1 person, the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was also good. The hostel is situated conveniently near the railway station, so it's a good place to stay for people who travel to the city by train.

Everything was great. The staff is very friendly, helps in the chat with any questions promptly. The location is excellent, the center, near a large metro line. I spent 3 weeks in this place, it is very convenient that there is a small kitchen and a washing machine - this is what you need for a long trip. I would love to come back here again.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
