Affordable hotel in Busan with good accessibility for traveling to Haeundae
#Domestic Hotel
Busan is a great city to travel to without a car, so it's my favorite travel destination. Busan has a refreshing ocean and plenty of delicious food, and there are many tourist attractions that are worth visiting, such as Gamcheon Culture Village, Heunyeoul Culture Road, Taejongdae, and Haedong Yonggungsa Temple.
I chose Haeundae for my stay in Busan this time because it's convenient. It takes about 50 minutes to get to Haeundae Subway Station by taking the express train number 1001 from Busan Station, and the Ramada Encore by Wyndham Haeundae Hotel is located 5 minutes from there, so it's in a great location.
Haeundae Beach and The Bay 101 are close by, and there are many famous restaurants nearby. I can also walk to Haeridan-gil, which I visited for the first time, so it's a hotel with great accessibility.

💜 Early check-in
Hotel check-in is at 15:00, but I arrived a little after 12:00 to request luggage storage. The hotel lobby is on the 3rd floor. By the way, there is a Starbucks and a 24-hour convenience store on the 1st floor of the hotel, so I used them conveniently during my stay.
I went to the reception to ask for luggage storage, and the staff kindly explained that luggage storage is possible, and that early check-in is also possible if you sign up for membership, so I signed up for membership on the spot and checked in early.
🩷 Twin Family
After completing the early check-in, go up to the 21st floor. There are 4 elevators in total, 2 for low floors and 2 for high floors. There were some reviews that said it was inconvenient because the lobby is on the 3rd floor and the elevators are separate, but I came on a weekday or because it was raining, so there weren't many people and it wasn't very uncomfortable.
Although it's a family twin, the room is smaller than I thought. There's one double bed facing the window and one single bed next to it.
The bedding is clean, but it looks a bit worn. If you don't request a separate bedding change, they only do a little bit of cleaning.
The bathroom door is a wooden sliding door, which is a bit disconcerting, but the bathroom and toilet are clean, so I'm generally satisfied. Basic items like toothbrushes and disposable shower towels are provided. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are communal and squeezed, so you have to use your hands a little.
There's a dressing table and a sofa in front of the hotel room, and when you close the curtains, you can see the scenery outside the window. It was a rainy trip to Busan, so it rained every day and was cloudy, but I could see the sea and the horizon that looked just like the sky at the end of my vision.
The hotel is not located right in front of the sea, but I am satisfied because it is close to Haeundae by foot. Haeundae Street is still quiet during the day, but at night, this street becomes lively with sparkling neon signs and many people. Since there are many restaurants, it can be a little noisy at night, so please be careful if you are sensitive!
💜 Check-out & Luggage Storage Service
Unmanned check-out is available! I checked out at the lobby to request the luggage storage service. Thanks to the luggage storage service regardless of the time, I was able to lighten my heavy luggage on the last day of my trip to Busan and save on luggage storage fees.
It would be great if they paid a little more attention to the bedding, but I liked the Ramada Encore by Wyndham Haeundae Hotel quite a bit because of the price, room condition, and optimal location. I will go again on my next trip to Busan. :)
