The room is not too big but clean. And it has the impressive window! Despite the hotel is located right next to train tracks, we didn't hear any noise from outside. Fast internet without any difficulty connecting it and interruption.
Although the location is not too close to the central Tokyo, it's easy to access from Shinjuku and Tokyo station. The coin laundry room is in the hotel, which is a huge plus. They offer 2 breakfast places so you can choose either Japanese breakfast or cafe breakfast.
The bed and pillows are super comfy though for my husband the bed was a bit too short so he needed to sleep diagonally.
The receptionists are polite and helpful. We arrived at the hotel slightly earlier than the check-in time but they led us check-in the room and even upgraded the room for free. When I asked a receptionist to change a large coin to smaller ones in order to use the coin laundry, she did it immediately.
There is no designated smoking room in the building. You need to use the smoking "container" outside the station and it's not open 24/7 so if you smoke a lot, you might find it annoying.
But overall I would recommend this hotel and would come back for...
Read moreI stayed for three nights and it was much better than I expected. It's just right next to Musashisakai station. Surrounding area has everything you need. A huge supermarket, bookstore, restaurants. |Quiet and safe! The elevator is secured with room key card. You have two restaurants choice for your breakfast. Not too far from Kichijoji and you also can go to Tokyo, Shinjuku and Nakano stations straight by Chuo Line. |During the cherry blossom season, you can take a bus to International Christian University and Nogawa park area for picnic. It will be lesser stress than going Ueno park. For the hotel, I have no complaints at all. You might think it's far from the central Tokyo area, but much less expensive staying in Shinjuku and totally worth it. Of course the area is not touristy at all, but great place you can feel a bit taste of living in normal Japanese life. Thumb up...
