Dormy inn Tokyo Hacchoubori — Hotel in Tokyo

Myth: Free WiFi in the rooms There is a condition. If your room is on the higher levels, then the WiFi will not connect. Unless you are using a computer, then it will connect poorly. I thought it was my problem at first or a password error, but the WiFi worked fine on 2F. Same domain name and password. When I went to 11F, it did not allow me to connect on my phone. I went to 7F on my second stay here and was able to connect to WiFi but poorly. When I go to 4F to test my hypothesis, it can connect haha

Myth: No tattoos allowed in the sauna This sign is everywhere, but people don’t follow it because they don’t reinforce it. Then why even put the sign? Can put something more useful or important. Or they can actually enforce that rule if they believe it to be so important since they put it everywhere!

Upon checking in, although rooms are non-smoking, the hallways reek of cigarette smoke when you approach your room.

Room: Needs extra attention to cleanliness. It is a little small, but most room in Japan are small unless ryokan Cleanliness though is what makes this one star. I find huge dust bunnies and mold in the room. This is disgusting. Do they assume I won’t use the shower because there is a public bath? I used the shower today and the drain was not only clogged but there was mold on the ground as well. The sauna clothes provided have a tag that is hung around them saying enjoy the smell of freshly cleaned clothes. If it is freshly cleaned, then it should not reek of sweat. It smells terrible. Did they not use detergent to wash?

Breakfast: It is alright. Just try once or to have for the convenience is okay.. Sushi for 1800 yen, then please go somewhere else better. There is more delicious food to be explored in surrounding areas.

Elevator: they have two elevators, but only one elevator goes to 1F. You have to wait awhile for it. This was a hassle because if physical challenges or elderly, it is difficult for them to take the steep stairs to go from 2F to 1F.

Amenities: Nice ramen after 9:30pm Ice cream during the night and yogurt drink in the morning after your sauna. Located very close to the lobby 2F.

Service: counter members are nice. Minimal...

We ended up at the Dormy last minute because we were caught up in the "Great AirBnB Cancellation of 2018". We really just wanted an affordable, clean place to stay that was decently located. I was a little worried because it looks a bit grim in the photos, but it was truly a great experience. I honestly ended up being happy that our AirBnB was cancelled and that we were here instead!||||First off, the pictures that the Dormy has make the rooms look more grim than they really are. Our room was very clean and neat, and had good sunlight during the day. There was free ramen at night, a free onsen to soak in, free clothes washing machines, and cheap drying. They also had a free shuttle that went to Tokyo station in the mornings. We slept really really well at night.|||| In terms of transportation, we couldn't have been more pleased. We figured that being one stop away from Tokyo station was good enough. However we didn't realize that some pretty big lines went through Hatchobori station itself. The line that goes to Disneyland goes through the station, and a line to get to Akihabara and Ueno also go through. The station entrance is literally right across the street from the Dormy. ||||I highly recommend staying here. Yes, the rooms are small. But they utilize the space really well and for everything else that you receive it really is a top notch budget...
