I have always stayed at this hotel whenever I visit Japan. Over time, the manager and receptionist have become my friends—they are very friendly and accommodating. However, I had a disappointing experience during my recent stay.
I discovered that my AirPods went missing, and I strongly believe they were taken by someone from the housekeeping staff. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to file a police report, as I had an early flight to catch. I reported the incident to the front desk, and they assured me they would follow up and notify me in the morning. I sincerely hope that my AirPods will be found and returned.
My advice to future guests: never leave your personal belongings, especially valuable items, unattended in the room. I truly hope the management will take this matter seriously and take appropriate action. Better safe than sorry.

Not okay... Just meh
For the price and all the past reviews i knew what i was signing up for. The hotel was exactly as described in the reviews. The cleanliness is ok if you are not to picky, the service is ok too, the room i small but it's normalbin tokyo. If you need a cheap hotel with a good location in shinjuku this i a place... Not a bad place, not a good place, its just a place.
Only bad comment for me tough is that they could not accept to give me an extra pillow. I don't know if it's standard practice in japan to not have any backup pillow in storage but for me i think it says a lot about the service you are offering in a hotel, wich is basically in the service industry.
I wish I could give negative five stars. Itched the entire first night with zero sleep due to dust mites so we complained and were met with unhelpful staff, and we ended up taking the hit and just getting another hotel for the same price that was so much better. If there hadn’t been dust mites, we prob would have gotten over it and stayed due to the location, but how can you charge this much for a place that doesn’t even have clean bedsheets?!?! It’s literally what a hotel is for more than anything else. But it felt so gross as if it was the cheapest Motel 6 in the pits of Arkansas.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

The rooms are so tiny that I started feeling claustrophobic. We booked the rooms for an average nightly price of CAD 250 through Expedia, whereas after checking in as we were looking for alternate accommodation, we found the rooms in the same hotel for same dates to be much cheaper (CAD 150 per night) - which we felt was grossly unfair to us. We had booked this for two date ranges - we somehow managed for the first period and cancelled the second booking. Communication with the hotel staff was difficult as they could hardly speak English. It is very conveniently located in a nice area but not worth the price when it comes to comfortable stay.

Professionally managed
Room sizes too small
Good housekeeping
Very dirty, and dusty, bathroom toilet leaked and the place smelled like sewage. The neighborhood is noisy and had a lot of drunks. It's definitely cheap, but you get what you pay for. It was like a bad motel 6 in a seedy neighborhood. LOTS of love motels nearby
Hotel is fine - gives you basic necessities. Rooms are small as expected. Stayed here twice with small family (3 people) one room layout was fine, while the bathroom setup during second stay was workable, though not best. You could either use tap to take a shower or to wash hands in the sink. Which required extra coordination for all bathroom activities.

No luggage storage, charge extra for reasonable check out time. Doesnt worth it
It was very convenient, and the amenities included everything I needed. I love the comforter, which is light and so warm. The room was super clean. I could enjoy watching movies
There is no area to store your luggage if you want to drop it off early. It took a while to check in. You must use the kiosk and it took about 10 mins. I asked for a nonsmoking room and they gave us a smoking room. After my complaint they quickly switched my room. The room is very small, the beds were smashed together. Biggest complaint you need to pay if you want to watch tv. Also the toilet is in a closet facing the bed (no privacy) and the sink and shower are apart in another room.
