I have stayed here multiple times, and will continue to do so. The front desk staff are very helpful, and the breakfast buffet is outstanding. Very convenient location, with the subway right across the street, with several combinis close to the hotel...
Pros - very clean room & tv has good selection of entertainment, good wifi, safe walking distance to restaurants, grocery, bakeries & cafe.
Cons - standard room very tight for 2 people compared to other hotels, only found 4 coin washer dryers on top floor which always had long waits,
We stayed here for 4 nights. It was a good stay. The rooms were clean and bright, however quite small, but that is average for Tokyo. I did find the bed a bit hard, but overall, comfortable. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. There is smoking section just outside around the corner of the main entrance. The onsen was also very nice but be aware that it is a public bath NOT a swimming pool. There will be nudity so if that’s something you are not comfortable with, be advised.
The location was excellent. Plenty of local food options and shopping not too far away and It’s only about a 3 minute walk to a major train line which made traveling around the city easy and convenient. Would stay again.

Very small rooms.getting into the tub is almost impossible for short statured.
Not user friendly. Very small bed.
How long people can sleep one on top of the other?
Don’t go to this hotel.
It's a nice chain of hotels with decent amenities. They are not available on all floors though, but I guess it depends on the hotel you stay in. Overall, it was a good stay.
Very clean place with helpful, dedicated and friendly staff. Extremely convenient location as it's 2-3 minutes walk to Otsuka station on the Yamanote line. Ale necessary amenities in the room and top floor with onsen, washing machine, microwave, vending machine etc. Room was spotless, same for the restroom. Area around is really quiet but saturated with restaurants, izakaya's, shops, malls and convince stores. Walkable distance to Ikebukuro. Great stay. I will happily choose APA hotel for my next trip. Thank you.
Excellent location, met all my requirements. Beautiful walk areas, plentiful convenience stores and food choices. Both the Front Desk and Housekeeping staff were helpful, polite, professional, non-intrusive. The hotel has basic washers and dryers however I found heavy duty coin options nearby. Thank you.
I absolutely love this place!
Great location right next to a main Train line.
I would come back here anytime the staff was friendly and helpful. The room had everything you need.
