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.

The front desk photo is WRONG and MISLEADING. There is only a small door as "FRONT DESK" NO LUGGAGE STORAGE is provided while website shows luggage storage. Everything is fake. Room looks like apartment. It is NOT recommended.

Property smelt like sewer and very limited cleaning. Didnt have trash bag for trash. The area is great for walking otherwise will not stay here again. For a hotel that smells awful with loud noises to reuqire 10,000 yen deposit is crazy.

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.

The hotel is very close to the JR station, but the soundproofing is not very good. The room has a washing machine, which is great, but it is very small and there is no place to hang clothes to dry. The room also has an exhaust fan, but its placement is inconvenient, and I’ve hit my head on it several times.

Will not stay again

The location of this hotel is pretty good, and that is the olny good thing I can say about this place. You have to check in and then walk a around the building to get to your rooms. The path to your room is like a garbage dump. The AC in our room wasn't working. We had to talk to the clerk multiple times before they are willing to check the AC for us.

Misleading…

As an apartment, we were comfortable, really appreciated having two showers, two toilets, two sinks as we’re a family of four. However, the photos and description provided by the hotel are misleading. One of the pictures shows a hotel tower… the description says the hotel is ‘connected’ to the train station. Neither is true. The ‘hotel’ is a small group of repurposed apartments. The apartments are clean and of good size. Things are in good condition. What is a bit shocking and unexpected is getting to an old small back street, having to go to their other ‘hotel’ to get checked in, having to leave an ID or a 10,000 yen deposit, etc, etc. If they were honest about what the property actually is I think the apartments would be well appreciated.

El.hotel esta muy bien ubicado, estas a unos pasos de la estacion Shin Okubo. Lo malo es que no hay nada de espacio para tener tu equipaje, entiendo que las habitaciones son pequeñas pero deberia de tener un espacio especial para las maletas, por lo que si llevas maleta grande no es opcion este lugar. El servicio de limpieza para la habitacion muy bien sin embargo el.aite acondicionado estaba muy sucio se ve que no les dan mantenimiento, por lo que respiras polvo asi mismo como las cortinas se veia y se sentia que les habia falta una buena lavada. El lugar es solo.para llegar a dormir, nada mas.
