Loved staying here for a few days, feels like home! Looks as accurate as the photos, is clean and everything works well. Very spacious for solo-travelers and good for up to three people if needed. Han’s tips and guides are very helpful and welcoming, especially for first-time travelers!
Walking distance to Otsuka station, which is good for daily commute. I definitely recommend taking the time to check out the station itself, as it has a mall: Atre Vie. For those that have been to Tokyo before and/or are doing a long stay, Atre Vie practically covers most of your daily needs – supermarket, restaurants and food, drugstore, and some shopping of course. It even has a hair salon and nail salon. For those that are familiar, there’s also a Loft, UNIQLO, and JINS. It truly is such a convenient place!
Ikebukuro station is just one stop away, but if you’d like to add to your daily exercise, it’s walkable. There are many malls within the station and around the area – Sunshine City being among the notorious, which adds to the experience and the variety in food choices for daily living.
Overall a good place to stay, especially for long stays. Nice area for daily living and for those who have visited before, but also friendly and welcoming for first-timers!
