    Very friendly staff, they helped us a lot with our luggage and the yamato delivery service. The room was standard and ok for the money. Very close to Shinjuku station and the entertainment district.

    Bigger rooms, as usual in every hotel in Tokyo, and the prices are quite high now.

    Location is key. Right out of the maze of Kabukicho, perfect. Just a short 10 minute walk to main Shinjuku station, considering you walk with big suitcases

    The wall between rooms were not thick enough. When I was trying to fall asleep, all the time heard a girl was talking on a phone. It irritated me.

    Room was ok. Just as my expectation. Location was perfect. So close to the metro station. Also room was clean, we didn't get room cleaning service tho.

    You can hear the doors from other rooms closing and anyone in the hallway very easily, though most people weren't very loud

    Great location, enough room for suitcase under the bed so it was out of the way. The staff were kind and helpful.

    The laundry was unsatisfactory. I lost money due to the dryer malfunctioning and had resorted to a public laundry which cost me additional money. I was not very pleased with this situation. At times the staff's English fluency posed a problem but we managed to communicate in the end. Rooms need to be cleaned daily. I was disappointed a bathroom maintenance issue remained unfixed despite reporting the problem to your front desk.

    The staff was most friendly and accommodating. Staff attempted to service with a smile. It was not my first stay at the hotel. A satisfactory experience years ago prompted me to rebook here. I had an extended stay here with two separate reservations. The staff made this flawless.

    The elevator often had the smell of cigarettes, and there wasn't a vent in the bathroom, so everything stayed wet.

    The bathtub was a little difficult for me to get in and out of. I am short and am recovering from ankle surgery, so the high walls were a challenge. However, the support bars were helpful in there, and the hotel overall is accessible for those with impaired mobility.

    The hotel is decent with a great, attentive staff. The room was quiet and cozy, which is what I was looking for. The location was great and not too far from public transportation or restaurants.

    The price was pretty high for what we got, definitely the most expensive accomodation we had and was the smallest and least amenities. Would think that maybe being in Tokyo contributed to the price.

    we liked the location, good amenities nearby and close to stations.

    The room is very tiny and the bed is so hard and small that we could not sleep for our entire stay (fortunately only 2 nights).

    I liked the position, very close to Golden Gai and in the middle of the vibrant Shinjuku. Quite close to the train station.

    I couldn’t figure out how to turn off the main bedroom light without removing the room card from the reader - admittedly, I was very exhausted so did not spend much time reading instructions or looking for solutions. alongside this, I realised that the soundproofing wasn’t the best and did not want to disturb others staying at the hotel whilst investigating

    Very accommodating despite a delayed arrival time. Complementary items such as a razor blade were much appreciated. The bed was very comfy. Location is fantastic - mere minutes away from the Shinjuku Sanchome station and Shinjuku station proper.
