My girlfriend and I spent five comfortable nights at David’s G-Stays apartment. This is not someone’s personal condominium- but rather a quaint travelers’ hotel where every unit is occupied by a couple or young family, in from abroad.
The Hotel is located on a quiet alley, peacefully removed from the bustle of the surrounding city.
The staff was primarily English speaking expats- all with a kindly manner and a firm working knowledge of the city.
The accommodations are modest (tiny by American standards)- but exceptionally clean and nicely equipped with fridge, microwave, electric kettle and Kurig-style coffee pot.
The bathroom will pose a unique challenge for a large guest. If you’ve ever showered in a motor home or small sailboat, you’ll be nicely prepared for the experience.
If you’re looking for an affordable, safe and convenient stay, in the heart of Shinjuku, David’s G-Stays is an exceptional value.
