The room was a double room and it was small like most in Tokyo. It was very clean and the staff were so helpful and friendly. We left our luggage after checkout and the staff didn't have any problems just keeping them for us. Though we did see lockers and most ppl were using them.
The breakfast choice was sufficient. Sushi and rice in the morning was interesting and very Japanese. It was nice! The coffee was very strong which I liked, especially to wake up in the mornings!
The area around the hotel was busy, just one thing I would comment, is if only the hotel has a free shuttle service to Shinjuku, as it would make travelling to the airport more straight forward. Overall, the stay was very good and pleasant!

The hotel is situated a main train line and is a junction to three of four other train lines. Staff is friendly and speaks English well. Best stay I've had in Tokyo so far.

I absolutely love the location of this hotel – right across from the Takadanobaba JR station, it’s the closest I’ve ever stayed to a subway entrance. The area is peaceful, with plenty of shopping and dining options nearby. The building is in excellent condition, and the staff provides outstanding service. They even offer a variety of self-help amenities, which is incredibly considerate. The complimentary drinks from 2 to 11 PM are a fantastic bonus. The only downside is the extremely uncomfortable bed and pillows. Despite staying for 7 nights, neither my husband nor I had a good night’s sleep. We both felt exhausted every day. I hope they can address this issue for a more comfortable stay in the future.
