Amazing location, right in the heart of Shinjuku which is close to the central downtown area but not noisy at all.
One thing to note is that the building walls are a bit thin so you can hear the neighbours sneezing, snoring, etc. Didn’t bother us too much but is something to be aware of.
Walking distance to some great shopping and food locations. Closest train station is a 15 min walk, which can be a bit tricky if you’re loaded down with luggage. Make sure you ask the host specifically what the building looks like in advance as the signage is in Japanese and we almost went into the wrong building!
All that aside, the manager was extremely friendly and spoke English perfectly. The manager’s office is right downstairs so they can come up and help at any time. They were very quick to reply, gave us some gifts when our fridge leaked a little bit, and kindly watched our luggage when we checked out.
Thank you for a lovely first stay in Tokyo!
