A funny little place. It's about a 10min walk from the main beach area in Busan. It was a little quiet due to the Korean Lunar New Year. It was a nice place to have a warm shower and a good nights sleep. The rooms i stayed in even had a little kitchen with washing machine and a hair dyer. Very exciting. I enjoyed my stay. The staff are every helpful and were able to answer all my questions about Busan. I would stay there again.

Very friendly staff and super clean facilities. Definitely value for money -- even included a basic breakfast. Will definitely come back. It's very close to the beach!

I booked the double bed room. We arrived late, and only stayed for the night, but the room was excellent. It's really a one room apartment, so there is a lot of space. The room was incredibly clean, and the staff was very kind even though we had little interaction (our fault). It's not hard to find from the subway, and the neighborhood was quiet yet within easy reach of the beach area. Thanks for a comfortable night!

Excellent place to stay at and only a few minutes from the ocean front. Great view at night and many restaurants around the area. The staff as helpful and facilities were really clean. I would certainly stay there again should I visit Busan in the future.

It's a comfortable place to stay in an excellent location right near Gwangalli beach. The staff are very nice and the facilities are great too. Only problem I would say is that the blanket they provided us was extremely thin which made it difficult to sleep especially since it was just starting to get cold last week.

Owner Comment (Show)
We switched thin blanket to thick blanket last week Also all rooms has own room heating system called ONDOL, so guests can turn on the heater at their room And guests are from all of the world, someone could feel cold, but someone could feel hot (when we prepared thick blanket earlier) So it's better ask staff directly for this kind's matter to get a help - Thank you -Thank you

They upgraded us to ilmare (studio apartment) with great view of gwangalli beach for no extra charge! The rooms are cleaned everyday & they always refresh our pantry with breakfast. Venue is great, lots of neat restaurants & bars around. Only opportunity area is that is 5 mins away the actual indy guest house so guests so there's not much interaction. Indy however is quick to respond in email if you have questions. we had a great time!

I only spent two nights in this warm place but I can tell I really liked the atmosphere and felt as home with caring staff. I actually wasn't a really good guest as I arrived really late on the first night and left the room after the reqested time (11am); and not only they made me feel comfortable with it but they took care of letting me access the room safely and conveniently as well as for the departure. Thank you Indy!
