I was shocked and horrified
I am Residence, more like I am shocked and horrified. First everything’s electronic so you have to remember all kinds of different codes to get into the building and your room. Then once you get to the room the bathroom and shower are in the same room and it’s so small that you have to sit on the toilet to take a shower and the main room had hair and dust everywhere. On the website the BBQ area looked beautiful but in reality it looked like it was falling apart and had never been cleaned. It was so dirty I couldn’t even tell what color it was.

Convenient and clean hostel
Staff are so nice and helpful! Location is very great,
only 5 minutes walking distance between hostel and Haeundae Station and within 10 minutes to Haeundae beach and market. However, it would be better if chair and mirror could be provided in the room.

The guesthouse was a 10-minute walk from the beach and the Aquarium. The location was ok except that we did spend a little time locating it when we first got there by bus. It was only a few blocks away from the subway station. During our stay there, there were quite a few constructions going on nearby and it was dusty.
As for the room, we liked the kitchenette (and the fridge with a freezer) where we could prepare cooked food. We were however a little disappointed with the sleeping pads which were not quite comfortable (we stayed at an Ondol room) and the shower head which required you to press on it continuously for water to come out. The water temperature was also unreliable.
The staff were friendly, helpful and could communicate well in English. We particularly enjoyed the singing of one of the staff during breakfast time.

Very convenient
It's only a 1-2 min. walk from Hauendae Station exit 5, around 10 min. walk to the beach, and from there you can take a hike to Dongbaek Island. There are a lot of restaurants nearby. Location's great. The hotel itself is ok. The room is big with a kitchenette and washing machine. Cookware and kitchen utensils have to be rented/borrowed with a deposit of 10,000won, but you'll get your money back once you check out. If you're not a Korean or Japanese, you'll have a hard time eating your meals 'coz there are no regular tables or chairs, only a coffee table. You'll have to sit on the floor (or bed) to eat. This hotel doesn't provide guests with toothbrushes or razors. You'll have to bring your own. They provide shampoo, conditioner, bath gels and small towels. By the way, it's a bit hard to take a shower as you'll have to continually press the shower head to release the flow of water. All in all, it's a good stay for us.

Friendly staff, convenient location
Staff were very friendly and always willing to assist. The facilities were simple, but very clean. I AM is in a very convenient location from the subway, and although no seaside views, it was only a short walk away from Haeundae Beach and Dongbaekseom, and plenty of eateries. A good place to stay for a short, simple trip.

Good hotel for family to stay near the beach area
My family of 4 enjoyed our 3 nights stay here near Haeundae beach, Strong wifi, friendly staff at the reception desk which can speak English, who even can recommend local food to us. Clean and comfortable for those looking for mid range guest house (apartment type). Heating for floors are a plus during cold chilling days. We stayed in ondol type of room, and it was a good experience. The kids loved the breakfast and I am the person who do not mind cooking my own eggs for breakfast. Recommended highly for those who wish to get best value for their money in a mid-range guest house.

Lovely but need new shower heads
Really enjoyed out stay at this hotel our only issue is the shower head, you have to hold a button in on the head for the water to come out. This is annoying if you have an injured arm like I do and can't hold the shower head all the time

Good location.
Good location. Metro is within walking distance. Staff are very friendly and polite. Make us feel at home and welcome. However, need to improve on the bed. Beds are uncomfortable.
