Busan Gwangan Holic Story Hotel

A budget-friendly option near Gwangalli, just a 5-minute walk to the beach. The room was small but very clean, and the uncle who helped with check-in and stored our luggage was very friendly. However, the bar music outside was played very loudly until 5 AM, keeping me up all night. If you're sensitive to noise, I wouldn't recommend it.

The owner was very kind, and the service was great! The room was spacious and the ocean view was fantastic. I'll definitely come back with my friends from Seoul.

This place is great, right near all the lively spots in Gwangalli. No need to worry about going hungry with so many awesome-looking restaurants around. Plus, there's a CU convenience store right next door and an Olive Young nearby for all your shopping needs, which you can easily take back to your room. The only downside is there's no elevator. The soundproofing is decent; three out of my four nights were really quiet. On the last night, I could hear other guests packing, which was a bit noisy, so remember to bring earplugs when you travel. Overall, this is a good spot.

I booked the cheapest room, which was compact (suitable for one person), but it was very clean. The bathroom was also clean, and the amenities were complete and very secure. The service was good. There's a 7-Eleven near the hotel, and you can walk straight to the beach from the end of the alley.

Overall, it's okay. Very close to the beach, and it's super easy to find food with lots of convenience stores nearby. However, the room is a bit small.

The location was great, but 50,000 won for parking? That's ridiculous. Even public parking lots only charge 30,000 won per day. Plus, the owner's tone in such a small space was really off-putting. I definitely won't be going back. It was a very unpleasant experience.
