Staff were very courteous. Room was on the very small side, along with the bathroom. Compared to a previous Livemax hotel I've been to. Lights were kind of dreary, and no curtain just a single pull down shade that you could open or close. One of those you get what you pay for kind of thing

Staff were helpful when I needed assistance. Room was small but that is typical of the price range in Tokyo (and Japan in general). That said it was comfortable and despite its location quiet at night

8 nights in November 2025. To set expectations right, my four-star rating is based on how well the property owners provided a three-star level of service. I think they did it pretty well. The only thing that I didn't like at all was the non-transparent window with armored glass. I have never seen such a thing. Maybe it is due to some Japanese law. Everything else is fine (again, this is just a three-star hotel), but with some "features," so be prepared: - Second-floor reception. You enter the building and find yourself in a tiny hall with a lift, no signs, nothing. Go to the 2nd floor. == Side note: They close the doors from midnight to 6 a.m. (if I recall correctly), so if you arrive late, call the hotel in advance to find out how to deal with this. - Check-in kiosk. Be prepared to go through a process of "enter this and press that" before it gives you a key. == Side note: They have a money-changing machine, but the rate is terrible. - Only one key per room, but you will find a key duplicator on the floor (1,000 Yen per duplicate). - Checkout kiosk - insert the key, and you are done. - Checkout at 10 a.m., but they provide a free storage service. - The room is not small; it is TINY. But it's well-organized. There are lots of USB ports, so there is no need to buy an adapter just to charge a phone or tablet. - I'm not sure if this is normal practice, but when we forgot to put the "please clean the room" sign on the door, they didn't clean it.

Don't use the washer/dryers. The machines work but thr dryer didn't dry my clothes at all. I spent 300 yen. 100/30 mins of drying and after waiting an hour, I switched dryers thinking maybe it was just my machine that was broken

The cleaning staff are super nice, everytime I left my room they would say hello and offer to change my towels or take my trash even if I had chosen not to get my room cleaned. The front desk staff treat you like a chore plain and simple. Rooms are tiny, really tiny, you get what you pay for. Room I got had water stains on the roof. If you want to just have a place to store your stuff and pass out in after everything closes this is the place. The park next to the hotel was cool, they had a month long food expo. There were nicer hotels in the same area, please look at those instead of this place.

2.5 Stars…In the heart of the action of Kabukicho. Basically the Japanese equivalent of a low cost hotel in Paris. Tiny space, have to climb over partner if sleeping two. Bathroom is some sort of prefab thing that is very efficient but very small only 1 person at a time and god help you if you are a large person. Staff can’t speak english very well but just enough to get by, despite them telling you no English and being 100% a tourist hotel… check in and checkout is very easy done completely at the machine without need for human interaction. Not a bad place to stay if you just need a place to stay for the nights and want your own bedroom but not much further than that. It has air conditioned rooms at least!!!
