“Good value for solo traveler; not great for a couple”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2009

This hotel is a good value if you are a solo traveler on business. Rooms are clean but very small with no closet or drawer space to speak of. Bathroom is tiny, but has the nice Japanese toilet. Included breakfast service is excellent, with choice of many different foods and beverages. Recommend this hotel for a solo business traveler or someone who wants decent accomodations in Tokyo for a low price, but cannot recommend for a married couple because the rooms are simply too small to comfortably accomodate a couple with luggage.

“Budget stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2009

This place is a nice place to stay, if you are on business trip. Since Tokyo is very costly, there are few places to stay on a shoe-string budget..

“Excellent location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 May 2007

For a hotel in the heart of Tokyo, the hotel room (triple sharing) was reasonably priced. The room though small was comrortable and clean. There was a hearty buffet breakfast. There was an English speaking man at the hotel counter who was very helpful.
A big plus factor was the location:near the train station,a lot of restaurants nearby. They said it was in a red light district but I didn't sense any danger.

“Bad experience”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 March 2007
1
person found this review helpful

The rating I gave for this hotel is based on the fact that all hotels in Tokyo are pretty bad. If this were in another country like Hong Kong (where I'm from), it wouldve received the lowest rating.
The hotel itself reminds me of an hourly hotel, and I wouldnt be surprised if it is one of the functions.
The rooms were extremely small to the point of being claustrophobic and dirty. You could not dial long distance from the room.
Staff were unfriendly, and couldnt speak a word of English. If you ask them for directions, they would show you a piece of paper with a map to the nearest JR station.
Stay away at all costs!!!
