    not enough space to lay your luggages flat on the floor (nevertheless it was comfortable to sleep in)

    Booked a double sized room good for 2 and as expected from the room size description and reviews its small and fits well for 2 people only. No enough space to open your luggage. The neighborhood is quiet with nearby konbinis (lawson and 7/11). The hotel is near to 3 subway exits (with 1 exit that has an elevator access.)

    the hot water stopped working for the morning/afternoon during the day. I didn’t get any notice or explanation due to lack of English from the staff but they did try their best!

    The location was great! super close to a lot of lines. The bed was very soft and comfortable. The facilities were all good and although it was a small room, it was enough for one person.

    A little far from Shinjuku, was about a 15 min walk. Bed was too soft, wish it was more firm.

    Strong wifi and fairly comfortable room despite being small.

    The laundry facility is only one washer and one dryer, this wasn't a problem for me as I was not there during a very busy period and was jetlagged and up late at night but I see how it could be annoying at busier times.

    Location is very convient to the Shinjuku and Shibuya areas. These are the main nightlife areas for foreigners, locals, young people and the gay community. The rooms are clean and the staff is friendly. The room is quite small which is why the price is competitive. The restaurant looked very good though I did not eat there myself. Staff spoke sufficient English

    The space of room is quite small than I thought. If you come with family , it's quite small but still acceptable. The bed is too soft , the older may not like this. And there is some dust on the wall of room but not that problems.

    The location is excellent. You can connect with several lines of Tokyo metro. It's really convenient. Only 1 station to center of Shinjuku or you also can reach Shinjuku by walking only 10 minutes. Only 3 minutes from Higashi-Shinjuku station. The Staff's also really helpful and kind! They helped me solve the problems and also helped to call a taxi when i'm back the airport. Appreciated for that!

    No lobby wifi made it difficult to communicate and check in. Extra fee to check in early is frustrating.

    Clean, comfortable and well equipped rooms. Rooms are small but that is consistent across rooms we’ve stayed in across Japan.

    very loud as there is a lot of emergency vehicles going by, so couldnt have the window open. Cant use AC only heat so with the window shut the room got very hot quickly. NO soundproofing in the room so you could hear everyone going to and from in the hall way.

    the beds were super comfortable ! and the pillow was comfy as well ! love having a minifridge and getting the bins emptied everyday ! GREAT location right next to the station makes it great for travelling and getting back after a long day sight seeing.

    No complaints at all. Just an FYI re location the nearest train is Higashi Shinjuku stop, not Shinjuku, but it’s only a 15 minute walk from Shinjuku anyway.

    Great value. Everything you need.
