Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel room had stains on the wall and a tiny pillow that wasn’t greatly comfortable to use. The area is really good around it with immediate access to the subway line, and the free onsen is a nice plus, it is just the cleanliness thats the biggest issue I have. It’s good for what it is and especially the for the price.

Gross

The staff are very nice, you can tell they are trying their best but the hotel is too run down. However the building is super old and gross. This is a cheap hotel so I wasn’t expecting much but it was way too dirty and old. Mold in the air conditioning unit and drunk men in the hallway puking late at night. I got a bunch of bug bites while I was there too. It is very close to the train station but I wouldn’t stay here unless you are broke and desperate.

Is better than what I thought. They have individual showers in 3 floors and also you can take a shower in the onsen if you want. So it's a good place to stay for a pair of days.

Do not stay here.

The pros to this property is the proximity to public transportation and the staff is nice. The cons are EVERYTHING. This “hotel” is absolutely filthy and ran down. The so-called kitchen hasn’t been clean since Bill Clinton was president of the USA, the flooring is broken and also hasn’t been cleaned in decades. The bathrooms are disgusting like one would not believe. I give two stars for the eco aspect of my stay because the property seems to do its best to conserve water by not cleaning anything on a regular basis. I recommend those considering this property to at a little more for an actual hotel, not a trashed out dated building. The Sun Plaza two doors over is a much better value for the money. I don’t know how Hotel Taiyo passes any health inspections.

The only nice thing about this place is its proximity to the metro so you can find the next hotel. Found a cockroach in the room. You can hear everything going on in every room on your floor. The floors are nasty. Don't ruin your japan experience here

cheap and that’s what you get.

Excellent price compared to other places but if you’re not on a very tight budget I’d suggest staying elsewhere. The room was functional but everything had a poor cleanliness level. Bathrooms were a good bit of walk through the corridor and it was always very cold. Location was close to everything and if you stay in that area it’s worth going to Spaworld for an onsen experience.
