This hotel was amazing!! It was super clean, very accessible and insanely affordable. We stayed for 8 nights and paid 360 per person for the whole trip. There were five of us and the place fit us and could’ve got 3 more. I forgot my iPhone charger but they had some for us in the room to use. One of the best places to stay at while in GINZA. 10/10 recommend:)

A cosy little hotel with friendly staff. The hotel itself is dated, but it's clean and well kept. There's a train station within walking distance and there are quite a number of dining options around the area. Would stay at this hotel again when I'm in Tokyo.
