NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL DONGDAEMUN

The hotel's location is excellent. It's a 10-minute walk to Dongdaemun APM, and only a few minutes' walk to subway lines 2 and 5. Nearby, you'll find CU, GS25, and Coop supermarkets practically at your doorstep, along with three Olive Young stores and even an e-cigarette shop. There are also plenty of dining options, including fried chicken, soup, and Korean BBQ. The hotel reception is on the 3rd floor, and they can speak simple Chinese. The lobby offers free coffee and water. On the 3rd floor, there's a self-service laundry room for 4,000 KRW per use, and further inside, a self-service luggage storage area. The room was cleaned daily, and my stay was very quiet and comfortable! I missed the weekend, so the price was much cheaper, about a third of the weekend rate – hotels in Seoul are truly expensive on weekends!

Booked the rooms with my colleagues. We stay here every time we visit. Perfect! Really great, can't fault it at all except for the price.

The room was very clean and the bathroom had a separate wet and dry area. The lobby on the third floor was spacious, and downstairs was very convenient with many convenience stores and even a fried chicken place. It's super handy that the Airport Express, which I always take, is right at the entrance. This was my first stay, and I'll definitely be back!

Overall, it was very good! The front desk staff could communicate in both English and Chinese, and the environment was quite nice. I wasn't sure how to choose a pillow. I did find an eyelash on a new towel, but that's understandable. There's also a hot water dispenser in the hallway, which is a nice touch.

The room isn't huge, but it's well-equipped. The subway entrance is right nearby, and you can store your luggage for free on the 3rd floor.
