If you're looking for a simple place to stay in Tokyo I would recommend this hotel. Staff are friendly and helpful, the facilities are clean and cleaned regularly and rooms are well equipped for someone who is looking to have a place to sleep at night. Minor negative is a lack of wardrobe section that might be more of an issue for others but wasn't too much trouble for me.

Clean room and friendly staff. They were attentive to our needs and our questions. You are close to many lines which was a big plus. I would stay here again. The only things was that they didn’t have extra pillows.

This property was wonderful in every way ! From the staff to the entire building, it was well worth the money spent. The rooms are small but they are just enough for two with limited luggage. Rooms are very clean and the amenities provided are great ! The location is probably one of the best aspects of this trip. Close to absolutely everything. I will definitely stay here again !

It's really conveniently located near Akihabara station while managing to stay away from the crowds. It's right in between Akihabara and Kanda for food options and activities. While it's clean and quiet, the hallways are open air so it can be cold or hot depending on the weather and the rooms are incredibly small, even for business hotel rates

I would have given a 5, but the room was freezing cold. Everything else was great though. It had a beautiful city skyline view, the bath was amazing and big, everything was clean and new looking and the staff were very friendly. The breakfast was a tiny buffet, but the food was good and had different options that worked for everyone in my family. Plus the hotel was close to the train station and a lot of bars and cafes. Another plus, my son loved being able to see the shinkansen from the window. Would have stayed staring out the window all day if he could.
