Let’s start with the biggest and most important: hospitality & kindness. David & the staff are 24/7 and are amazingly kind & helpful. We had a slight debacle with our rail passes back in the US and I had to have new passes sent to the hotel & David was incredibly understanding & helpful about holding our passes for us. They were handed to us right at check in! For that itself, we are eternally thankful.
The only downsides are few, but depending on your expectations could be big. There were 3 of us in this space and that definitely felt like a bit too much. 2 would be perfect. The photos make it seem much brighter & bigger than our unit actually was. This could be because it rained all week & we didn’t see any sunlight (lol) or it could be our misunderstanding of the measurements. The price for 3 days seems a bit much after traveling now to other parts of japan and seeing other accommodations & such - but also consider this IS a great location that is close to Shinjuku Station & everything else, so, there’s that.
If you’re simple travelers looking for a place to sleep, this is great! We would likely stay again if it was just 2 of us and no more. Thank you David!
