Very simple clean small hotel with basic amenities. Located in a lively and fun area. Manager permitted us to leave our bags earlier in the morning and return to check in. Larger than a capsule hotel but no extra space to sit or hang out. Just a place to sleep. Perfectly functional.

This place is not a regular hotel setup. It’s more like a small Japanese apartment situation. Small clean room in a quiet little side street neighborhood. Tons of restaurants and entertainment 1block away. I’ll definitely stay here again.

Was tidy and large enough for us, very convenient location for public transport and local restaurants. I was grateful that they took a booking last minute, but was taken by surprise when they asked for a 10000 yen cash deposit on arrival as this was not made clear to us when booking, so none of us had cash and I had to give them my passport instead.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We booked a 4-night stay here just before Christmas 2025. Just to be clear: this is not a hotel, but an AirBnB style of accommodation. The AC/heater was almost ready to retire, lots of dust on the weird green curtains, kinda dirty decorative pillows/blankets (the brown ones), dirty laundry machine, and it seems that someone actually lives here as there was a name on the front door. During our last night, we actually had a notice to vacate the premises as they were supposedly doing something illegal in regards to licensing. The only good thing about this place was the location as it was very central. In short, we wouldn't book here again.
See the weird brown pillows/blankets.

The hotel itself was very nice and clean, but the surrounding alleyway was dirty with trash. The service was very nice but we had to walk around the block to get our key before walking back to the actual hotel, which has no front desk. The room itself was small and comfortable with plenty of great amenities.

Good accommodations, room is a decent size and has a small fridge and washing machine. Check in desk is not at this location but about a 1 minute walk. Only complaint was the people in the room above us were stomping around very late at night/early in the morning and couldn’t sleep while this was going on. The hotel itself and staff are good though.

The room appeared clean and I liked the white sheets. I liked that our family room had two bathrooms. There were complimentary umbrellas downstairs to keep us dry in the rain. The neighbors were quiet. We liked the alley ways with restaurants and the local Family Mart that was in our area. There was a Don Quijote store within walking distance of us, coffee shops, and good eats like a quaint hole in wall fresh soup dumplings place. Too bad there was a mound of trash next to this property in the alley that never got picked up in two days we were there. The laundry machine in the property worked but it did not have heat to dry clothes thoroughly so we had to walk to a laundry mat to dry our clothes using a machine that utilized heat. Overall, our stay was comfortable.

We had a hard time looking for front desk and taxi couldn't enter alley way to hotel. It was a convenient area to catch trains. It is not suitable for kids and families except for overnight stay to transit. We stayed 5 nights and didn't get a room service after 4th day.
