Get value for your money
Tokyo can get very expensive. If you're looking for a clean
hotel in Tokyo at an affordable price, this is a good bet. You won't find
luxurious amenities, but guests say it's close to shopping, public transit and
has decent Internet. It's affordable and very practical.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Bathroom is really small
Westerners had trouble with how small the bathrooms were and that it was difficult to manoeuvre inside. You need to get on a giant step to get to the toilet, guests said. They advise that the bathroom size will not be comfortable for plus size people.
negative:
No daily cleaning here
Some guests were disappointed that the housekeeping didn't make the beds and clean their rooms everyday. Guests said they were given a vacuum cleaner and asked to take out their own trash. For some, that cheapened the experience at the hotel.
negative:
No room service
The hotel is structured more like a traveller's long-term stay accommodations rather than a traditional hotel. Amenities like room service are not available, but guests noted that the hotel was close to shops and supermarkets.
