Book Independent Shinbashi accommodation from NZ$91

Great location and helpful staff

Location was great. However the room was terrible! Cramped, no storage space, noisy, and the negatives could go on. The outside of the building looked like a high-rise jail block house. And the room seemed like a prison cell. We had a single double bed that was pushed up to one wall and only allowed about 16 inched of space on the other side to walk around. No storage, only a couple of hanging hooks. Bath area was of modular design with plumbing below raised floor. I'm 6 foot tall and I had to duck down as to not hit my head on the shower ceiling. Price was ok for the area, but if I ever went back I WOULD NOT stay at this property again. 4 nights was painful. Spend a few dollars more and go somewhere else. Besides, if you loose your room key it's Y2,000 added to your bill. If you want and extra pillow - you pay extra (rental fee).

This hotel is very convenient when you just landed in Japan, however because it’s so far away from the city prepare to spend at least two hours every day on the subway if you want to go shopping or restaurants.

Clean room

The rooms were beautiful with black out curtains (which I love and appreciate) and there were plenty of amenities that I enjoyed.

Overall this is in a great location, close to trains. Where we struggled was the elevator situation. We would wait 10 minutes for an elevator. Everything time we would want to leave or return we were waiting for an elevator. Additionally, the rooms were very small. My husband is 6’2” and struggled. The dryers in the laundry room took an hour and a half to dry, and even then they were still damp. It’s a great budget friendly hotel in a great location. The lobby, and lounge are lovely, the pool area lovely as well. It’s just the laundry room, elevators and size of room.
