10/10 Excellent
"We stayed at this hotel because of the great reviews it had. We highly recommend staying here for all of the great amenities such as a gym, coin laundry with Laundry detergent and dryer sheets available for sale, the 7-11 conveniently downstairs and how incredibly helpful the staff was. 10/10! They always cleaned our rooms daily and provided free towels and are completely understanding. We will stay here again when we come back to South Korea!"

"Our second stay at this hotel. It is not in a touristy part of town, but centrally located to the popular touristy spots and immersion with locals. Rooms are fairly priced, clean, and safe. The hotel has washers and dryers if you need to refresh your clothes. There are many places to eat nearby; several coffee/drink places, a great bakery, and great restaurants."

"The staff were super helpful they even let me keep my suitcase safe while I went to Busan and Jeju for 7 days. The laundry service was helpful and the location is great for getting to other key spots and attending day trips. The room was smaller than expected but that's what you get for "cozy" size but the lounge area made up for that with unlimited coffee. I would definitely stay here again"

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Nine Tree was excellent. At first, the Junior Double was too tiny for two people. It might be just spacious for one person. We had to upgrade to double twin which was much more spacious for two people. The hotel was so accommodating and our room was upgraded with no extra charge with a better view to the park. Mr. Kim was very understanding and helpful. The cleaning staff were very friendly. Overall, I would strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Seoul."
