Travel Light Hostel Reviews

We had a great stay at Travel Light. It was in the perfect location to explore Busan, walking distance of the metro and lots of places to eat, drink and shop. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, comfortable and had all the amenities. Would highly recommend.

It was one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in!! I loved everything about the place, it was very clean, other guests didn't make much noise and were quite in the room and in the common aread after 10-11 p.m. The location was perfect, right in the center of Busan, the subway station and bus stops were 3-5 minutes away from the hostel. I met amazing people here as well. I'd read some reviews that this hostel was antisocial but I totally disagree with it, don't be afraid to start a conversation with other people. There is a huge round table in the middle of the common area where you could chat, work, eat food... I felt very taken care of, like the owner of Travel light took into account all the tiny things which you might need in a hostel. For example, there were tea bags of tasty tea, coffee, There were q-tips, pads etc. So, I loved it

Nice place. Nice location. Super nice manager. I stay here for three days. And make lots of friends. The kitchen is cool and I like the big table. People can sit here to share information.

Good location

Decent location, the room was fine, kitchen area was quite nice! There's bread, strawberry jam and some cereal so basic but enough if you want something quick.

The hotel is completely self-service check-in. You will receive the password for the hotel door and room before check-in. I originally wanted to register the information of the check-in passengers, but I found that I didn't need to register. It is different from the accommodation when I traveled before. I really stay and check out here with conscience. The public area of ​​the hotel is not big. There is a super large table with many sockets, you can charge and use the computer. If you don’t have an adapter, there is one on the desktop in the middle of the public space for you to borrow; they can help you send postcards for free, just write it and put it in their mailbox; jam, toast, cereal, and milk can be taken at any time, and there are kitchen pots and tableware for cooking; there is only one washing machine and one dryer, and I didn’t encounter queuing to use it during the two days of check-in; there are postcards, facial masks, 3 towels, disposable towels, toothpaste and toothbrush in the basket on the bed If you are done, you can just throw it into the basket under the sink in the bathroom. There are towels, toothpaste and toothbrushes in front of the counter for you to take at any time. The shower and toilet are separated, but the sink is in front of the shower. The disadvantage is that the shower and toilet are very small. The rack for clothes is a simple rack. When taking a shower, clothes are easily splashed by water. The hot water is not hot enough. There is a bathroom and toilet. There is a dressing table in front of the door. There are cotton swabs, cotton pads, makeup remover cotton pads, hair dryers, curling irons, and ionic hair clips. However, there is only a door curtain to get out, so there is a time limit for using the hair dryer. If you exceed the time limit, you have to blow dry your hair. There is a hair dryer on the sink in the shower room. There is makeup remover, facial cleanser, and toothpaste on the countertop. However, the sink is really small and it is easy to get the countertop wet. The bed has a mirror and a small wooden board that can be folded up. The lower bunk has a wooden door and the upper bunk has a curtain. There is a large space next to the mattress to store backpacks and personal items. There should be floor heating because it is warm and you won't feel cold when you sleep. The socket provides a place to plug in the charging cable directly, so you can charge even with a cable 👍🏻 The biggest problem is that the bed is made of wood. When it was first decorated, the edges of the wood must not have been specially sharpened. There is no protection for the mattress compartment. It is easy to be scratched by the edges of the wood when you are about to get out of the bed. I was scratched twice in two nights... There are two long wounds on my feet. When I went home, my family thought something was wrong with me. The hotel has two doors. Be careful when you go in and out from the elevator at the main entrance. There is a billiard hall upstairs. I am not sure what is on the other floors. I was almost grabbed by a drunk uncle when I was about to take the elevator on the first floor on my first night. If you want to go in and out, take the elevator from the rice cake street on the west side. Downstairs is a rice cake street. If you walk towards the subway, you will reach the Seomyeon Market, where there are so many delicious foods. Songjeong Samdae Pork Rice Soup and Gijang Handmade Sliced ​​Noodles are just on the same street. You must go there to eat and drink.

There was no language barrier and I, a Japanese man who doesn't speak Korean, was able to stay very comfortably. I had planned to stay for 5 nights, but it was so comfortable that I ended up staying an extra night. The service was excellent for the low price, and since it was unmanned, everyone seemed to be able to stay freely and at their own pace. I highly recommend it if you're staying in Busan.

I used a 4-person room. The location in Seomyeon is really good. The price is really cheap, so I thought it was a hostel where I could just sleep... daebak.. The facilities are really good. The main space is big, which is nice, and the shower room and toilet are really clean..! The diffuser is my favorite brand, especially the signature soap, and the scent is the best! I was worried that there would be no staff, so management wouldn't be good, but this is the best compared to any hostel I've been to..! The breakfast is also good. I'll come back to this hostel next time I stay in Busan for a week. It's the best! The guests are also polite and really quiet.

It's close to the station. I stayed in a private room. The futon was fluffy. The room was clean and new, but sometimes there was a slight sewage smell. Overall, it was great value for money, and I'd like to stay here again.

The room was clean and it was conveniently located near Seomyeon Station. It was also close to Lotte Hotel, so it was very convenient. The neighborhood is in a busy area, so there were no problems.

Good location, and the price is quite affordable…… ...

This is the best hostel I've stayed in since I traveled alone. It has everything you can think of👍 The only thing I think needs to be improved is that the sliding door or sign of the female public bathroom needs to be clearer, because one night I saw a foreign man taking a shower inside... I was shocked when I entered It feels very clean and comfortable to live in❤️

It was so good!!! The facilities are clean and cereal, bread, and milk are available for free until dinner. They also provide a lot of amenities. They even provide coffee capsules... 100000% willing to visit again🥹👍

The location was extremely convenient. The entire facility was clean and well-maintained, and I was able to stay comfortably.
