Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property.

This hostel is in a great location. I was so lucky when I stayed because not only did I have the whole dorm room to myself but also the whole female floor! The shower is located on a separate floor but this did not bother me. Location is great, right beside metro and KTX.

Located in Busan, within 4.7 km of Busan Asiad Main Stadium and 4.9 km of Sajik Baseball Stadium, DASOM provides free WiFi throughout the property. The property is around 5.9 km from Kyungsung University, 6 km from Busan China Town and 6 km from Busan Station. The property is 400 metres from Seomyeon Station, and within 400 metres of the city centre.

All units are equipped with air conditioning, a fridge, a microwave, a kettle, a shower, a hairdryer and a desk. Featuring a private bathroom, rooms at the hostel also provide guests with a city view.

I stayed 3 weeks in May in this studio, I am very picky in general but it was all I needed. I was alone so I had plenty of space to leave my luggage plus move around freely. There were 3 windows in the room and air was flowing without problem. I also had enough natural light on the upper floor. Kitchen utensils, pans, pots are provided and when I asked for a knife I was provided with more than asked. The place is very secure, it is located at the entrance of the market but there is no noise, you can easily find cooked food or even buy your groceries (also some vegetarian options as I needed). At night it might seem a bit intimidating because the market is closed and there is nobody there, but there are lights and I never had a problem. The girls who run the place were very very kind and made me feel very comfortable. They also provided me with a clothes rack to dry my clothes on (and detergent). I tried the floor heating once and it worked perfectly. They provided many towels for my use, the typical small ones that you always get in Korea. Kitchen also worked perfectly. Seomyeon station and the area itself is 5-10 min walking and with the underground connection from Boujeon I did so easily with my heavy luggage. Also the girl in the cafe downstairs helped me with everything I wanted! Lastly, it was a clean space and I loved it! Overall I would highly highly recommend this place and if you are a solo woman traveler don't hesitate to book it. I was so sad to leave!

There seems to be free coffee and tea bags in the morning, but I didn’t use because my schedule is tight. Location is convenient, just a few min walk from the Main Street or the subway station. There is a restaurant selling delicious beef rice soup nearby.

    This hostel is in a great location for downtown Busan, and I made so many friends here as a solo traveller. Plenty of social space and a good kitchen, but there are so many food places and bars and clubs nearby that you wouldn’t often need to use it!

    It's a very classic hostel as you imagine it. Shared rooms or your own room with bunk beds, shared bathrooms and showers. The kitchen seemed very nice, and during daytime there was always someone active there so it's nice to meet people. The location is great, it's very convenient to reach pretty much all areas in Busan. Especially if you keep the price in mind, it's a great place

    Cheap stay, all there that you need (kitchen, toilet). Feels a bit like budget hotel, it actually is a budget hotel… but for that price a very good value. We didn’t try their breakfast, some options nearby (Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks). Free laundry room! Staff was friendly and helpful. Convenient location in the city

    This was the best hostel experience I’ve had so far. The staff are really friendly, it’s in a great location, the atmosphere is great, you get to meet people, the beds are pretty spacious, you get a big locker inside the bed area, another locked under the bed that fit my small suitcase, and another locker in the common area for your shoes. Overall, would recommend!

    One of the best hostels I stayed at in Korea! It has everything a backpacker needs: clean showers and toilets, a properly equipped kitchen and an amazing host (who speaks good English). You can even use some gaming consoles The dorm is clean and spacious with lockers provided The host was very helpful with every question I had and we even had dinner together. It is right outside of the train station with access to many busses and the metro. Several restaurants and convenient shops around the building.
