    Room space limited and it will be quite hard to pass through for 2 people lives in double room

    I accidentally drop my bad in the hotel, the hotel staffs kept it for me. The hotel staff also change the direction of elevator so we don't need to carry our luggage down the stairs

    Apart from that particular rude staff, do also note that the toilet was really tiny. For people who are taller than 1.75

    Staff (a lady) was rude and impatient during our check-in. Appeared very impatient when we clarified that we were actually checking-in even though we have deposited our luggage earlier in the day (before the official check-in time). Seems like there’s no proper hand-over between hotel reception staff working on different shifts.

    Location is really good and very near to Ikebukuro station.

    Although I am aware of apartment sizes in Tokyo, one storage space would be grate. Also, we generally sleep with earplugs so we don't mind, but some could find passing trains noisy.

    Great location, just near one of the largest train stations. Ikebukuro is like a hidden gem of Tokio. Hotel was clean, facilities as expected, staff polite. Price was also acceptable..

    Lack of staff communication skill in English. The staff had to use google translator almost all the time. This made us difficult in undestanding, and vise versa. It would be very important to have staff that are at least moderate in English skill. However, they’re very helpful.

    Mostly the location and staff

    Our room really disappointed us especially the bathroom. It was so cramped you can barely fit! There might have been a leak in the sink.

    The hotel was really near the train station and has numerous restaurants nearby. Ikebukuro is a fantastic area to stay at. Staff were really nice and helpful. They offer a lot of amenities that you can get from the lobby before you go to your room

    The room smelt smoky although it was a non smoking room. It did get better after a couple of days.

    Great location, so close to Ikebukuro station. Everything you need in the area, convenience stores, restaurants, shopping and entertainment. The staff were lovely and helpful. Very quiet and we slept well.

    Given that the hotel is next to the train track, be ready to hear the sound of the train traffic as early as 5+am as the sound proof is not really good. There is only one escalator ... which goes downwards in the morning and upwards in the evening...else you need to use stairs for 1 level which is not a big deal unless you are with luagges

    Literally 1min walk from Ikeburoko East exit (Parco), Family Mart interconnected to the hotel for a quick bite. Amenities available at the lobby which is super convenient. Impressive that the family room can fit 4 beds so each of us have our own bed which is great for a good rest

    The rooms were REALLY REALLY tiny. We did a lot of shopping so packing 4 suitcases was kinda insane. And even during the stay there was just so little space. (But the location was so worth it and I'll stay here again even knowing this.) Getting a taxi was kinda annoying so just make sure you have uber or have a different back up plan.

    Location was so important for me because I wanted somewhere convenient. It was super convenient and really easy to get to. I'll go back to this hotel just for the convenience. The staff were also super nice! They can speak English just fine. You can hold luggage after you check out which is awesome. During your stay they change out your slippers, PJs and towels every single night.

    The town itself has gotten run down and a little dirty but the stores inside are clean and bright.

    I stayed at Daiichi before with groups of high schools students that I took to Japan. It was affordable and lots of fun things for young people to do. Thanks
