Although the room was very small, the location just steps from Otsuka Station on the Yamanote Line more than made up for that. The front desk staff tried to be helpful, helping me with storing my bags for a few hours after I checked out and being very polite in answering my questions although I hardly speak any Japanese.

The bathrooms were incredibly tight for a Westerner. But water was warm and overall everything functioned well. Wish the windows had been constructed to allow for a view. As it was, half the window was permanently blocked by the sliding screen, which made the room darker than it needed to be. The breakfast selection was extremely limited so usually I had to supplement with bought food from the nearby stores.

Location is superb, easily seen from the north exit of Otsuka station. Close to restaurants and 7-11. Room was small, but had everything needed for a good night's rest. Bathroom was small, but well designed. Water pressure was perfect. Free breakfast options were fine. Had a small window I could open that overlooked the station area. Despite being a cold winter's night, the room stayed warm and cozy. The hotel also had washing machines (2 x 100 yen coin to operate), clothes driers (2 x 100 yen coin per 30 min), and a microwave, all in an alcove on the 4th floor. Machine to dispense change available in the entrance lobby. Staff friendly, helpful, and coped well with my limited Japanese.

Entry on booking doesn't mention washing machines, driers and microwave listed in their available facilities. Nearly didn't book here because I was looking for them. No problems with the hotel at all. Would happily recommend.

The staff was quite helpful & patient. In the last 20 years, I always stay in Otsuka close to the station. Many places closed during the covid years. Your hotel is a welcome addition.

10 o'clock check out time was a little early, I thought. Sometimes, when I am in Tokyo, I need to send luggage or various papers out on the day I leave. Your staff was quite understanding and I was allowed to check out a little later than 10:00 / I think it was 10:20.

Breakfast was tasty and convenient, and the convenient location right next to Otsuka station is hard to beat.

Daily room cleaning disrupted the room for a few hours each day. I was always out all day so it didn't really affect me, but if I had needed the room during the day that could have been a problem. I expect that the staff would have made allowances if I had wanted to be in the room during the day.

Excellent value in a fun and highly convenient location (hey, it's even near Gold's Gym!). Convenient restaurants and basically just seconds from the train station

Typical of Japanese inexpensive hotels, the pillows were miserable. One thin rice cracker of a pillow per human. Sadly that is the norm here though unless you pay more. Bed was narrow and quite hard. Some country's tourists like hard mattresses. My wife was not one of those tourists, so she had a hard night. Again though, cost performance was high

Was very well located to an event I was attending. Only one stop away from Ikebukuro. The staff were really accommodating and helpful when I needed to check in a little bit early because I was going to be away later.

Nothing. I would happily stay there again.

Cheap late check-out (1200Y for extra 2 hours). Relaxing elevator music playing when I enter the room.

Insulation from outdoor noise was suboptimal, although it isn't in a busy area so I was still able to sleep comfortably.

Close to train station

Entrance not at street level and need to climb up steep stairs. Have to use service lift at the back of the property if physically challanged.

The hotel is very near to the Otsuka train station. There are also a lot of resto and convinis on the area. They also clean your room everyday. They have a laundry room and the breakfast is sufficient.

Hotel located infront of Otsuka train station. Just 1min walk. Can access to famous location such as Tokyo. Shinjuku & Shibuya direct from train station.
