For backpackers or travelers traveling light, it probably would suit. For travelers with luggage, be prepared to carry luggages up and down a narrow staircase.
5-night trip

10/10

I liked the place we stayed. Only downside was there was no elevator and everything was cramped. But had above and beyond facilities for the tiny space including a dryer/washer, microwave, fridge, etc.

Sorry to say the room is cramp for my family of 3. The tv is way too high for comfort viewing. Washing machine is a plus but no dryer for clothes. Hang clothes all over room, not nice. Train noise, bearable.

Excellent use of space. Three large people shared the room comfortably.
2-night trip

8/10

Satisfied with the overall condition of the property. However, the building doesn’t have lift, so expect to carry the heavy luggage to walk up and down via just stairs. Also very close to the train track, can hear the noise when train pasts, having said that the property only about 2-3 mins walk to the train station.

6/10

Good location and facilities, but no room service, I stayed here for 7 days, so the room was quite dirty. It may be good to stay 2 or 3 days.

The hotel had everything you need (toiletries, pj, kitchen, laundry) . Instructions were clear and organised. Bedroom small but enough for people with only carry on luggage. I really liked our permanency there.

Nice ottle apartment, the Manager Mr Hiroki is very helpful and friendly
1-night trip

10/10

The room is a tight fit, there's no walking room but it's super convenient to stores, 7-11, the train, markets, and there are some lovely neighborhood walks. Be aware that there isn't an elevator (we were at the top of the very narrow 3 floor walk-up) but the room, and the tiny kitchenette is so sweet. The bathroom is great. Wonderful water pressure and the convenience that they not only provide shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, but also toothbrushes and toothpaste and some very cute pjs. I absolutely would return.

10/10

Great hotel, the room was very clean and the location was perfect, right next to the yamanote line! It was small for 3 people, if you brought in mid sized luggage you’d probably have to open it on the bed but we can’t complain, everything else was amazing. Thank you!

Beware if you have suitcases, they have no elevators.
4-night trip

10/10

It's a nice hotel with about a 5-7 minute walk from Takadanobaba Station. 7/11 about 1 minute away. Not a whole lot of dining options close, but still walkable. Check-in was a tad tricky at first, but everything was simple once it was done. Bear in mind, there are 3 good twin beds, but the room is tiny. Like, no place to put your suitcases. We crammed ours between the beds and did a lot of sideways walking in the room. If you can get a good price (hard to do around Shinjuku), then go for it.
3-night trip

6/10

Check-in was confusing, support number didn’t work. Garbage pile beside the front door that smelt disgusting and the air conditioning smelt like urine. Blood smears in bathroom. Other then that the stay was fine, nice shower and clean beds. Enjoyed the abundance of towels as well as the local grocery and convience stores. Close by to train station aswell.
3-night trip

8/10

Good things: It was a nice modern apartment with everything you need for a comfortable living. Beds very comfy, typical Japanese shower and toilet quite new, kitchenette very useful. Cute pijama included! Not that good: - The apartment is located under a train station, therefore constant train noises. If you are an early bird and late sleeper, it's fine, no trains during the night. - It was too tight for three persons, no space to put the luggage and we had to jump them all the time to move from one side to the other. - Second floor without a lift... For my 70year old mom and big luggages, not very nice. - Soap for laundry machine is not included. In general, it was fine at a good price.
