Economical choice that is only 2 train stops from the airport . Recently renovated, comfortable bedroom with large bathroom that includes a separate tub, shower and toilet. Small kitchenette . Also a block away from E Mart and Home Plus. Recommend!

For the price, it’s pretty good compared to a lot of other motels I checked out. Cleanliness was pretty fair and we’re maintained for you by the maids whenever you’re out and about. People in front desk were very friendly, despite the language barrier. Convenient too since it was near the train stations to take you to the airport or practically anywhere else in Busan.

Nice hotel close to airport
My wife and I checked in to the hotel around 10:30PM. At first, we were a little bit concern with the appearance of the hotel with large flashing neon sign in front of the hotel. However, it does help to locate the hotel in the small street from a distance. The reception area is small and the staff was sitting behind a little glass window. I can't help but thinking if this is what people called a "love hotel". After I received the key, we took the elevator and went up to our floor. As the elevator open we were surprised that the hall way was a little dark. There were lights but I guess the wall color was either black or dark color. The room was already open with lights on. Since this was our first time in Korean so we really don't know what to expect. We careful checked the room to make sure there is no one inside. The room is clean and the bed was very comfortable. There was two computers on the long desk with two chairs. We didn't need to use them and we assume that they work. We showered and went to bed. We woke up at 5:00 AM and went down to the reception at 5:45AM to check out. The staff speaks English and was very helpful. He called the taxi for us and give the driver instruction to take us to the international airport and also help us with our luggage. Overall, the room is clean and we had a good night sleep.

Bed was way too firm.
The location is convenient to the airport but the hotel allows for people to smoke so the place smells of cigarettes. The bed was very firm, could not sleep.

Great overnight stay near Busan Gimhae Airport
Conveniently located near the Busan Gimhae Airport. Great value for the amenities in the room and service. The rooms are larger than expected. Stayed overnight before taking an early flight the next morning at Busan Gimhae Int'l Airport.

When I booked the hotel I didnt realize it was a love hotel and a regular hotel but it was actually very nice. The hotel is conveniently located near the subway station and relatively close to the airport, so its great if you are doing a layover. The hotel room was very spacious. It was definitely one of the biggest budget hotel rooms I've stayed in. There were many amenities in the room such as a computer, a big tv, microwave, fridge, etc. Overall, it was well worth the money spent and if I ever go to Busan again I will be staying there.

Cozy, Clean and Convenient Hotel near Airport
Pros: (1.) Location: It is located at Sasang, which is just 3 stations away (10 mins) from Gimhae International Airport. Besides, it is accessible to Busan West Bus Terminal (Busan Seobu Intercity Bus Terminal). (2.) Food: There are plenty of Korean restaurants, bars and cafe nearby. All in walking distant. (3.) Convenience Store: You can find it at every corner of street but the variety of products is lesser if compare to city center like Seomyeon/Haeundae. (4.) Cleanliness: It is tidy and clean accommodation. Cons: (1.) Price: Room rate is slightly higher compared to other hotels we stayed at Seomyeon and Haeundae. (2.) Amenities: This hotel did not provide certain toiletries, e.g. face cleanser, toothbrush.

Clean, modern motel next to Busan bus station
Firm bed with interesting mirrors! Bed covers a little uncomfortable. Huge tv. Great rainshower and bathtub. Computers in room and usual complementary toiletries. Just no lotion (for European sunburned skin!). Free water and generally a bargain if you want a comfortable, safe stay near the bus station.

Area for improvement - Max Hotel
My wife and I stayed there for 3 nights between 31 Mar to 2 Apr 2016. Pro: 1)Near to airport-rail station and bus terminal. 2)Near to shopping malls and restaurants. 3)Room size big at reason price. Con: 1)Room quite dark because 2 out of 4 ceiling lights not working. No action taken even after I brought to their attention. 2)Water temperature very inconsistent. 3)No curtail or door for shower area.

A bed for the night.
Just make sure you get a non-smoking room. It might have been, but there was something in the air that kept me from a good night's sleep, although that's not the primary function of the Max. I stayed there to have a bed for the night before an early flight the next day. It was everything that I needed - except for the suspicion of it being used by smokers.

Stylish airport hotel
I only stayed one night. I loved the stylish room and that it had a bath tub. The room was spacious and clean. One of the coolest hotels I've ever stayed. The bed was quite hard which is the only thing that wasn't that great.

The hotel is just 2 stations away from the airport and so it is a great place to stay if one needs to catch a plane the next day. Very convenient to use the subway to the airport. No need to use a cab.

Great stay at Max Motel
My mother and I came to Korea to do some sightseeing. Max Motel was located very close to Sasang Station, which is near the Gimhae International Airport and within walking distance of the intercity bus terminal. We appreciated that the staff at the hotel e-mailed English directions and maps and provided English materials in our room.

Max motel is my go to motel if I have to go to the airport. It's a five minute walk to Gwaebop renecite, two stops away from gimhae intl airport. It's close to Sasang bus terminal and Emart and homeplus. The rooms are pretty huge and clean. There is a bathtub as well as shower. The staff was super helpful and spoke decent English. They let me keep my luggage there for a few hours when I checked out.

Best motel for the money, EVER
Most fascinating hotel I have stayed in. This place is a few subway (Busan -Gimhae Light Rail ) stops away from Busan Gimhae International Airport (PUS). The airport closes at night. I had no issue communicating with frontdesk using English. The room is large, has wifi AP in each room (very fast Internet). 2 computers, not too old (can definitely play some non-graphic intensive games). Big LCD TV with international channels and VoD. Fancy bedside console controlling all the lighting. A/C and TV uses the same remote. Very comfortable room.

Busan Sasang area Motel
One of the better motels I've stayed in Korea. If you need a clean and comfortable place for a night near the bus station and airport rail link, this place will do just fine. Nothing very fancy, but it does have some nice features in the room. Mine had a large bathtub (especially by Asian standards) and a big double bed too, two computers, mini fridge, microwave oven, flat screen TV etc. The check in area has maps and leaflets for tourists in several languages which is handy and its very near the subway links. All in all fine for a night or two.

Great location for airport access
I've stayed here several times when I just need somewhere to sleep before early flights from Gimhae airport in the morning. The room is always comfortable and clean with good facilities. It's in a good location where I can get a taxi before trains start running without it being too expensive and I can walk to it easily from the bus station when I arrive late in Busan. If you're looking to do tourism in Busan and have a nice window view then it's probably not great but it's perfect for me.

Great location for walking to the Busan intercity bus terminal, metro, or catching the light rail to the airport. Easy to find based on the map sent and the hotel staff expecting me were polite and well-trained. Very clean and and good value for price.

Not great but not bad!
Just needed a place to crash near the airport. Taxi from Gimpo was a little under 20 bucks. The hotel looks kind of shady, but the receptionist was cool and spoke some English. They give you this little pouch of amenities which is pretty fun! The room itself was spacious and warm, full size computers plus wifi in the room were nice touches. One complaint would be the lightswitch...all in Hangul! Had a hard time figuring that out and ended up accidentally turning off the heat which led for a chilly night. Access to Gwaebop Renecite station and Gimhae airport is really good! Would stay here again if I had an early flight, but probably not for leisure.

Think contemporary and Korean
We chose the place because it was near the airport, and the price was pretty good. There is a whole row of similar places there, glitzy exteriors, and good accommodations. The staff don't speak much English, but they are willing to try to help. It is not five star. Just a reasonable place to stay. Wifi works well. Big screen TV with a few English channels. Starbucks is an easy walk down the street.

スタッフの方が優しかったです。部屋も綺麗な方です。建物の外見から分かるように、ラブホに近いです。シャワーとお手洗いが別なのはよかったのですが、お手洗いが曇りガラスだったのが少し困りました。なお、タバコの匂いが嫌いな方は気になって寝付けないかもしれません。お手洗いの排気で他の部屋のタバコの匂いがしました。 立地がよく、食べることにこまりません。駅からも約3分程度で近いです。

좋았어요.. 주변 지인에게 추천해도 부끄럽지 않을 것 같아요..
가족 여행을 계획했던지라 호텔을 예약하려 했는데 예약하고보니 모텔이라 당황해 취소하려 했지만 기존 이용 후기의 내용에 그대로 진행하였습니다.. 모텔이라 조식 등의 이용을 할 수 없어 아쉬웠지만 숙소의 청결과 시설은 개인적으로 꽤 좋았습니다. 제가 다시 부산을 여행하기위해 숙소를 구한다면 재방의사 85%정도.. 될것 같네요.. 제 주변 지인에게 추천해도 시설상태 및 청결, 관리 면에서 부끄럽지 않을 것 같아요..
