The hostel has an amazing view over the beach area, and is decorated very nicely! Although it might be a bit hard to find and the shower room could use an improvement, the owner is a great guy and you'll definitely meet other friendely travelers as well! And of course plenty of eggs for breakfast!

Excellent location right across the street from Haeundae Beach and a five minute walk from the subway. Hostel is super cute and has ocean views. The only letdown was that the bathrooms are dirty.

Marubee House is a very good location with a nice seaview from the house. I will definitely go back to Marubee House again if I am going to Busan.

The hostel is great with a superb view! When you are there for the beach, you can't get any closer. But it is somewhat far from the main sights. Breakfast was good! Rating the owner is a bit tricky. John is very nice and helpful, but a little unorganized. I didn't get the booked room for the first night and my luggage was moved without notice to another part of the building(!) the next day. He wasn't even there to tell me. Same in the morning. If you need his help, better ask in the evening.

I love Mr.Egg very much. Especially a big glass window which show a wonderful Haeundae sea view from it. it's just near the sea, less then 5min walk to beach,convenient traffic both for bus stop and subway station. clean bed and i do love the toast machine and house keeper prepared bread and egg for ourselves. I enjoyed my stay in Marubee house which made me feel at home.

The view was amazing; and for the price, it was a bargain! The guys who run the place, Sean and John, are really nice and quite entertaining. The hostel itself is clean and well decorated. Every morning there is bread, jam, and eggs available for breakfast. I'm definitely going to return.

It's actually the best hostel I have stayed. First, the owners John and Sean are very nice and helpful. They can give us advice about restaurant or activities. Second, the view of the hostel is really valuable for the price!! Also, it's really convenient to go to Haeundae station. Lastly, I think John and Sean did their best to create a very warm atmosphere. I did feel like I was at home when I go back. I believe they are really using the heart to run the hostel.
