"The size of the hotel room and bathroom/shower is much larger than most hotels in Tokyo so it's easy to manage larger luggage and have room to move around."

"Definitely value for money with the low room rate, considering the big size of the room, which looks dated but is kept clean, and its decor is actually quite nice."

“I found the location particularly appealing, a sweet spot in Shin Okubo, where a vibrant atmosphere thrives without the overwhelming crowds of Shinjuku. What stood out to me was the unexpected spaciousness of the rooms, a definite plus in Tokyo. Plus, the hotel is close to the station, a Don Quijote and a number of restaurants.”
