Great hotel, Fantastic location
The rooms are a bit on the small side, but this is a terrific hotel in a terrific location! The breakfast is mostly Japanese, with a few western options. We had breakfast there most days and lunch on our arrival day. The food was very good. I was a little disappointed that they did not have an espresso option in the morning, but there are cafes nearby.
The bathrooms have lovely deep soaking tubs, and the hotel has an amenities station near the elevator where they have complimentary bath salts. It was great after a long day of walking!
This location is fantastic - it was great to be right across the street from a small subway station on the Yamanote line! The larger subway stations can be a little overwhelming - this one was very manageable, and everyplace we wanted to go to in Tokyo was just a short hop away.
This was our second trip to Tokyo and will definitely use this hotel again.

Cleanliness and service
Room was clean and service was pretty good. Room was small (narrow and long), so with a third bed there was almost no room to move, but we had squeezed in a 3rd bed in a double twin room. Location was convenient to central Tokyo and very convenient to rail/subway train.

First hotel of my first time in Japan - Impressed
This was my first hotel on my Japan trip and it kicked off my experience in Japan amazingly. It is convenient to most of the main areas and close to a mini don quoite. The room although small could fit my large suitcase and cabin bag fine. The cleanliness was awesome and the staff were friendly. We were worried about baggage delivery to our Airbnb but they aided us with that to help us find a solution. However if the next place you are staying at is a hotel they will also send that on for you too! Furthermore they have a section will all sorts of amenities you could need from sunscreen to spare toothbrushes. Overall I would definitely stay here again next time. Do not get put off by some of the review I didn’t smell anything, be it cigarettes smells or sewage.

Love this hotel!!
Love everything about this hotel. The location, the room, the staff were all excellent. The train is right across from the hotel making it extremely convenient. It’s easy to get to Shinjuku and Shibuya yet felt far enough from the hustle and bustle. The rooms are super clean and the layout is fantastic. I also appreciated the ability to select our own necessities - coffee, tea, hair masks, facial cleanser etc- the best part of the hotel in my opinion!! Would definitely stay here again!!

We were visiting our niece at Waseda University. The hotel was a short walk or subway ride from the campus. The hotel accommodations and breakfast were excellent! We had a wonderful stay!
