The hostel has a great location, Jin is very kind, friendly and gave me a lot of tips about my trip to Busan. I loved my stay there. The bus stop (Neospot Apt.) is less than 200m away and you can get to and from the airport with bus 1009-1 for just 2100 won, it's very convenient because it's direct.
I only have one complaint about the strong smell of humidity, but I think it's due to some structural problem with the building, as Jin and her husband clean the hostel every day.

I actually had to choose this hostel because everything else was booked, but in hindsight, I am more than happy that I ended up here. It's a nice little and very homey hostel with all the things you need. Exactly what I needed after staying in some busy and noisy places. The rooms are big enough, comfy, and the bathrooms are modern and clean. The hostel is a bit hidden, but otherwise the location is pretty great. Walking distance to the main nightlife area and the subway/metro. The owner is a very sweet woman. She is very friendly, patient and helpful, and we had some good talks. I had a great time!

Basicaly, the hostel give all you can expect from a hostel, except a kitchen. I like the bathroom
The bed are not attached to the wall. Impossible to sleep with someone moving all the night in the bed upon mine. This let me a terrible memory.

The common space maybe
The bad location, dark place near railway. Lot of mosquitos, not enough shower room, no privacy when sleeping...

Super friendly owner! The couple speak fluently english, very social and helpful in any way. The hostel is very calm and cozy, like a Airbnb. You have a kitchen, a rooftop and a social common area with TV, books and board games. The dorms are big and the beds are cozy. Towells are included in the price. Seomyeon, the Downtown of Busan is 5 minutes walk away. Next to the hostel is a 7-11. For me the best hostel in Busan.
Nothing.

Great location, downtown with restaurants and bus station at 10 minutes walk. Convenience store next door.
So clean everything, nice room(4 beds + bathroom). It was quiet you could sleep but in the same time enough people to socialise with.
I loved the common area with sofa little tables and chairs, microwave and the best the water dispenser machine, I could make my ramen and eat while talking with other guests.
And the lady at the reception so nice, when I asked she recommended restaurants.
Overall my best accommodation experience this year.
The only problem I had was with my pillow- too hard- but I'm always whining about pillows 😅

Blue Backpackers is a lovely Hostel located sear Seomyeon Stn., about 5 minutes from Buam Station. The hostel is super clean and the bed was comfy, I really liked the rooftop where you can enjoy food while admiring the Busan view. The price is super competitive, even when I booked last minute, and the lady is so nice and friendly. I'll totally come back here when I'm in Busan again. It's also a great occasion to meet backpackers, both men and women, from all around the world.

Private bathroom for each dorm (4 ppl).
Good beds.
Small and quiet GH.
Regarding the staff: one (guy) was cool but rarely there, and the other (a woman) seemed annoyed by my questions and I saw her only once. Weird feeling of being let alone in the house.
No breakfast.

it was super clean and comfortable. The couple that run it were so lovely and helped us when we were looking to try affordable Korean BBQ and also gave some good Netflix recommendations. There were lots of facilities including fridge, microwave and water dispenser in the communal area. conveniently located

The owners are very helpful and speak english very well. The location is very good, it is close to a restaurant and nightlife street but it is far enough to not be noisy. You can reach two different subway lines within 8-15m walking distance.
The only bad thing for me was that the bathroom entrance is too low for my height (185cm) so i hit my head there a few times.

The staff was very friendly, accommodating and helpful.
The toilet had a bad smell while the bed was hard. For the price we paid, could have gotten better value nearby. It is basic but has a backpacker feel
4.5
It was very, very clean. The staff was extremely nice. The bathroom was well supplied. The rooms had both a strong AC and a fan. There is a kitchen where you can have eggs/cereal at any time. The whole place was also very cute. We were very happy with our stay!!
Nothing. The whole place was great.
