I made the unfortunate choice to book two nights at this hotel while visiting Tokyo with my two kids. We arrived late enough in the day that we couldn't find a room nearby so we had to stay a night, but we slept in our clothes on with as little contact as possible. The room was dilapidated and neglected, with a vibe of an old skid row motel. The carpet, walls, and bathrooms were all gross, with paint peeling on the ancient bathroom cabinets and a smell of 50 year old carpet. Everything was just absolutely disgusting.

Room bigger than most places you would find in this area but the building and rooms themselves look old and dingy. Though the location is great for what it is. Super close to the train station and 1 stop away from Shinjuku.

Helpful staff (although they don't speak much english), laundry on site for 200 yen (wash+dry), multiple konbinis (7-eleven, Lawson, FamilyMart) within walking distance, and very close to Yamanote Line train station which connects pretty much all you would want in Tokyo. The biggest issue was the condition of the rooms, and some details about cleanlines. Mold in the bathroom, tiny stains on bedsheets, wallpaper tearing off in some corners, and holes in the walls. I wish the hotel cared more about solving all of these. Overall: Not great, but not horrible either.

Quite impressed with the size of the rooms!! We decided to stay a bit off the beaten path as we were in Tokyo for 9 nights. This hotel fit the bill! Trains a 2 min walk, plenty of restaurants and convienence stores basically 1 min from Hotel. The facility is a bit dated, but very near and clean and the staff was extremely helpful! Will definitely stay again on my next trip to Tokyo!

Hotel room smells wet and moldy. There were towels by the window to help soak up moisture. Beds were also very springy and hard, so very painful sleeping on your side. But the bathtub and shower were nice. But the area was very convenient. Below the hotel is Don Quijote. The Shin Okubo and Okubo stations are about a 5 minute walk. And Lawson, Family Mart, and 7Eleven are all within a 2-3 min walk. Overall, was an okay stay but would not book again.
