I wasn't sure what to expect with this place because it is pretty new and there weren't a lot of reviews, but my stay here was pleasant.
Pros:
- Check in was easy. There is a digital pad to get into the building, then a lockbox that has the key to your room.
- Good location. It's on a quiet street in Shin Okubo (Tokyo's Koreatown) and is quiet at night, but still close enough to a lot of the action.
- Water pressure from shower was great.
- Free use of washing machine/dryer + detergent is provided.
- Heater worked perfectly (didn't try the A/C since it was really cold outside)
- Great value
- Pictures are accurate
Neutral:
- Size was adequate for 2 people each traveling with 1 carry on and 1 backpack. Definitely not roomy, but not cramped either. Having 3 people in here would probably feel cramped unless traveling really lightly.
- Nearest train stations are about a 7-10 minute walk. I personally did not mind this, but some might think this is too far.
Cons:
- Walls are thin, so you can hear noise from people walking outside the building. However, there aren't many people walking around the building to begin with, so it's not too bad. Also, while there were no other guests during my stay here, I would imagine you could hear other guests talking in their rooms given the thin walls.
- The cups/mugs provided were a little dirty.
Overall, I would say my stay here was great! I would recommend this place and would stay here again.
