Perfect location in the middle of Shinjuku. This comes with some noise, which you can sometimes hear in the room. The rooms are very very small, but modern and equipped with many amenities. Staff was friendly, the food at the restaurant was good. They also stored my luggage after check out for free. I would come again.

Wouldn’t return

Rooms are small as to be expected in central Tokyo, but the bed was comfortable and staff were friendly. The main issues we encountered that would prevent us from re-booking in future were: - one lift for 15 floors and no stairs. My room was on the 2nd floor so I would have used the stairs daily to save time. This however, wasn’t an option as the fire escape stairs were alarmed leading to a frustrating lengthy wait for the single lift. - the entire hotel had a strong odour of curry from the restaurant downstairs. Despite being a food I like, it was nauseating after a time! - the locale is party central & a red light district, so noise during the night from outside is to be expected. We were most often awoken by a video billboard that blared out the same music on repeat 24/7 just over the road from the entrance (bring ear plugs). - room cleaning is only offered every third night, so don’t expect an empty bin when you get back in the evening.

Crowded area

The area is not a family friendly area at all and the rooms are very small. The hotel is well situated if you are travelling solo and want to have fun.

Rooms are spacious, considering space in Tokyo. Cleanliness is awesome. Staff are very accommodating. Most do not speak English, translated apps you will get by. It’s true, you don’t need to bring much toiletries, most is provided in your room. Toothbrush, toothpaste, comb/brush, razor, hair tie. Yukata (housecoat) and slippers are provided for your comfort. Just bring your deodorant!

1. There is something wrong with the ventilation system. If you observe carefully, any clean surface (e.g. your desk) will get a fine layer of dust in only a matter 2-3 hours. I wake up to my dusty laptop every day. This seems abnormal. 2. Centralized air conditioner. Generally, this isn't a big issue - but sometimes, maybe in the Summer, your room will be scorching and there's nothing you can really do about it because whatever is in charge of the centralized system didn't set itself up correctly for that scenario.

You stay here for a quick turnaround. Staff is friendly. Accomodations, OK. The log in kiosk is pretty awful-they need to update the software or the internet connectivity. The poor staff struggled more than they needed and it was not because of their effort. The interface is dated and problematic.

Enjoyed my stay. Only had 1 elevator and seemingly no stairs so it was a bit hectic during the night and the rush hours. There seemed to be a pre-scheduled black out every other day, ie electricity, maintenance, etc and the hotel would announce to stay out of the room during those times which was somewhat inconvenient. Otherwise I enjoyed the stay and would do again.

The staff are patient, polite, and go out of their way to accomodate you. After checkout they stored my luggage until later in the day so I did was free to go explore without dragging my luggage around. Highly recommend staying here!!
