minimalist stay
if you need a quick stay, it's fine. was not the most comfortable as a solo female traveler - shortened my stay. gave indications of a lovel motel so just be aware. also was not really in the best part of town if you are trying to stay towards more of the tourist highlights in Busan, would recommend further east along the beach or another area.

Room stunk of bleach horribly
The sheets smelled strongly of bleach and I didn't notice at first because the window was open when I first walked in. After sightseeing, I came home tired and fell asleep but was woken up at 5AM by the horrible bleach odor. I couldn't fall asleep again and felt incredibly tired driving back to Seoul. Even my pajamas reeked of bleach afterwards. I understand this is technically a love motel but my cousin's room didn't smell like this. The rest of the room seemed clean as well as the bathroom.. and the staff was courteous but man.. whoever changed the sheets were totally ignorant or inexperienced. The whole point of travelers booking a room is to get some rest. I didn't receive that here.

Value for money
Nice return visit to this hotel, my second time staying and wouldn't hesitate to stay again in the future. Everything about this hotel is great, only negative being hearing the guests in rooms next to you if they are being loud, and windows aren't soundproof so drunk people hanging out in the parking lot right beside the hotel at 3am can be heard quite well.

Close to Haeundae Beach
The Fringe Festival was going on, so there were tons of people at the beach. There was a craft beer restaurant and bar that was super delicious, and they sell bottles of beer you can take to go.

The Ara
Oh the Hotel Ara, where to begin... I was coming to Busan for business and didn't want to spend a fortune on the one night I was paying out of pocket so I booked the Ara. The location is great, not more than a three min walk to the beach, the room was very large, with a jacuzzi tub with an amazing light show), and had a partial ocean view (through the other hotels). I get the feeling this is not a place that one brings their wife but there was nothing gross or seedy about anything. The woman at the front desk was surly at first but ended up being very sweet. Biggest gripe was hair in the tub. Overall three and a half stars for location, size of room, and the jacuzzi light show. Would I stay there again? Probably not, but I cannot complain about it. It was an experience.

금연 객실에 담배연기 재털이???
오후 2시에 체크인 해서 오후 5시에 체크아웃 했습니다. 담배냄새 때문에 도저히 견딜수가 없었습니다. 프론트에서는 진작 말했으면, 방 교체 해줄건데 라고 하면서도 다른 방으로 주겠다는말은 결국 안하더군요... 분명 객실세부정보에는 금연이라고 되있는데, 이거 환불 안되나요? 반려동물 동반 가능 이라고 하더니, 동물 방에두고 나가지도 못하게 합니다. 강아지 데리고 밥집도 못가니 밥먹기도 힘듭니다. (호텔정보에 있으면 차라리 다른곳으로 구하던 강아지 안데리고 가든 하지요)

다시 가고 싶지 않은 모텔
호텔스닷컴으로 객실 2개 2일 예약을 하고 갔습니다. 도착해보니 그런 예약 받은게 없다고 하시네요. 한참을 찾아보더니 예약들어온게 있는데 객실은 없다고 하시더군요. 결국 객실 하나는 취소 다음날도 객실 하나는 안될것 같다고 하시더라구요 저희는 부산국제영화제 출장 관계로 해운대에 간거라서 멀리 갈 수 없는데도 먼 모텔을 추천하면서 그곳으로 옮기는게 어떻겠냐 하시던데... 서비스에 대한 생각이 없으신듯 밤에 도착해서 배째라 할 수도 있었지만 그냥 넘어갔습니다. 청소상태는 좋지 않았고 화장실 환기구로 다른 객실의 담배연기가 들어왔습니다. 러브호텔 분위기로 출장시 지내기엔 인테리어나 구조가 맞지 않습니다. 무선인터넷은 있으나 속도는 휴대폰3g 서비스보다 낫지 않구요.(실제 측정해봤네요) 객실에 있는 pc 는 윈도우xp 라서 메일 하나 보기도 힘들더군요(지원하지 않는 브라우져라고 뜸) 그래서 더더욱 비지니스차원에서 머무는 거라면 비추입니다.

Başka bir otel "ara"malısınız.
Oda ve otel çok basitti. Odaya dolap dahi koymamış ve bunun minimalist bir yaklaşım olarak açıklamaya çalışmışlar, hiç de inandırıcı değil çünkü kaldığınız yer zaten bir otel odası bir dolap koymak eminim insanın minimalist yaşamında büyük bir yara açmayacaktır. Verdiğiniz parayı haketmeyen bir oteldi. Dahası otelde ne tip insanların kaldığı da meçhul gecenin bir yarısı gelen saçma sapan sesler sizi rahatsız edecektir. Ancak konumu gayet merkezi ve şunu da eklemeliyim bina oldukça sıradan ve basit.

expedia에서 4시에 체크인이라고 했는데 막상 하려고 하니 8시에 체크인해야한다고 해서 조금 당황했습니다. expedia 이메일을 보여드린후 호텔 직원이 어딘가 전화해서 확인한후 체크인 가능해졌고 해운대 주변 정보을 얻으려 묻는 질문에도 조금 시큰둥한 반응및 별 호응도 얻지 못하였습니다. 1박 2일 머무는동안 3-4명 프런트에 계신분들과 이런 일들이 있었지만 모두에게서 별로 친절하다는 느낌은 못받았습니다.

전반적으로 좋았어요. 청소도 잘 해 주시고.. 다만 담배 연기냄새가 화장실에서 나서 불편했네요. 하지만 나머진 주인분들도 친절하시고 해안가도 도보 이용 가능하고 좋았어요.
