South Korea 2017 - MS Hotel Haeundae

So, I decided to stay for a night at Haeundae Beach. Why not since I was already in Busan, right? Found a hotel via Agoda that seemed pretty near to the beach so on my last night in Busan, I transferred hotel to the beach. Sounds good but in reality, it was really tiring to move from one place to another.

Took a cab from Busan station to Haeundae beach. It wasn't very expensive, maybe about  ₩18000 for a 20 minutes ride.

Keep a lookout for the hotel signage when reaching Haeundae SEA Life. It would be at the opposite direction. The cab will make a u-turn and stop somewhere below that building. The hotel lobby is at the 7th floor, so need to take the elevator up.

It was rather early when I reached at about 1040am. Enquired from the staff if I could check-in early and coincidentally, one room was available albeit a smaller room and it was still undergoing cleaning services. Waited for about 15 minutes and was given the key to the room.

ooh, the mini fridge is in here

maxim coffee is provided, good

bathroom, ok

I liked it that they provided slippers to the bathroom as well as room slippers. The power socket were rather loose though. Hard to charge the devices if they keep falling off. Also love it that they provided facial wash in sachets form. Beats anything that says body and face wash.

At night, there will be people lighting up fireworks by the beach. So romantic hor? Wonder if Sentosa beach-goers do that too?

There is a 7-Eleven downstairs so it was rather convenient. Which is good because it is not the norm in South Korea for singles to be out dining alone, especially girls.

plenty of western restaurants nearby 

During the daytime, we went out and explored Gamcheon Village. Watch out for the blog in the next post!

Meanwhile, breakfast was instant noodles from the convenience store downstairs. They got ramen eggs as well so that'll do as the side dish for the noodles. So full!
