I booked two nights at The Local and the experience was great. Friendly staff, clean and well decorated rooms and nice facilities.||What I liked the most though, was the shared spaces. They made me feel very comfortable. Maybe too much, as I wanted to spend a lot of time on them.||Would definitely stay here again.

Stayed in Korea for a couple of Months, and this hostel was so good we stayed there twice on our trip! Staff are very friendly, but also expect you to do most of the stuff yourself, however this is made easy due to the hostels modern check in system. The rooms are well kept and the beds have large curtains for privacy. The best part is a) location, as its right on a busy and vibrant market street, and b) the social area, it was my first ever hostel and its open space and comfy chairs made meeting new people super easy. The price is Okay, maybe a little expensive, however it does Admiralty feel more worth it than cheaper alternatives. There is wifi for each room and for the common area, its not the worlds fastest, but enough to search for your next day out or relax with some youtube and some GS25 snacks (hopefully Kimbap ;) ) The showers are really good too and available most of the morning and night. The location is close to several PC bangs for kids or gamers XD, on a market with street food, near the famous fish market, overlooked by busan tower, and with bus links to just about anywhere (or close enough to the metro to get to places such as the bullet train to Seoul).Overall, having stayed in several Korean Hostels, and several in countries like Japan, Singapore and all over Europe, this is by far the best10/10 cant wait to go back one day!!!
