The hotel is centrally located near shops, restaurants, and train station. It is clean and provides basic necessities. One downside is that the room and bathroom are small; there were 2 of us and it was rather difficult to move around. Otherwise, we had a good stay at this hotel.

Well worth the money. We all paid for having breakfast included but wouldn't do that next time. Many places around to have better food at cheaper price.
Rooms were very comfortable but small. Having more than one person per room would be tight.

The hotel is in a good location if you want to be far enough away from the hustle and bustle but Al’s within walking distance. The room is very small. As is most Japanese rooms. The breakfast is in another APA hotel across the street. If you’re like me and look forward to breakfast while traveling this isn’t the place for you. Very limited breakfast. Biggest disappointment. We just ended up going out and paying for it elsewhere. The hotel isn’t bad though. I’d stay here again. But I’d also probably look around at others first. The staff was great very friendly.

Great location in Shinjuku, about 15 min walk from Shinjuku station, about 6 min walk to a smaller station (Oedo line). Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. We were able to store our luggage for a few hours on arrival and checkout for free.

The staff was wonderful and helpful! Very kind and talkative as well. The hotel rooms are quite small, which is pretty typical for the area. The bathroom is up a step, and very small - and the toilet isn’t a heated one like we came to expect in Japan. The shower water pressure was phenomenal though! The bed and pillows are very flat, and the insulation is nonexistent. You will hear everything from outside! It’s a busy area, so there are loud noises all night every night. We chose for the accessibility to the trains, but now I know to choose a different area next time!

Great amenities, room was a little tight but it was fine. There was an option to get a massage thru the hotel which was fine but it would have been nice if the hotel had a dedicated room for guests to go to instead of the massage therapist going to the guest room and using the bed
Overall great experience. Will definitely book again
