Toyoko Inn Tokyo Kamata Higashi-guchi — Hotel in Tokyo

We had travel issues and had to stay near Haneda airport but the Toyoko Inn we stayed at close to Haneda was fully booked one of the three nights we were stuck in Tokyo and they sent us to this one on night three. It was a big enough difference between the two for this place to be somewhere between POOR and AVERAGE. Overall I think Toyoko Inn's are great value but this one specifically put us in a smoking room which had the worst nicotene stench I've ever experienced, making it through the night was challenging, I woke up couhgin several times but all non-smoking rooms were booked so we couldn't hold this against them too much.

Toyoko Inn's rooms are in general very small, but this one is more spacious. Bathroom is also spacious and comfortable. There is a humidifier, which makes it comfortable during winter. I experienced difficulty in wifi, since there was no technician during weekend. It seems that the router has a switch, which the hotel staff did not know (it seems) and there was no instruction. I was lucky to find it. Being a business hotel, I would have expected a better service for IT. There is a bus to the airport nearby, so it is very convenient. But it is a bit of a walk from the Keikyu Kamata station (not advisable to walk if you have...
