The two biggest problems with lyf are that it's an uncomfortable cardboard box painted poorly and designed to be uncomfortable under the guise trendy. The other biggest problem is that despite the Orbitz promise of you only pay what you see online they charge additional fees at the front desk and don't provide receipts.

Very surprised by how clean and well maintained the room was. The staff are friendly, ginza shops are walkable distance, the train station and 7/11 convenience store is just around the corner. Yes, the room is small but the cleanliness and convenience 100% makes up for it. I will be back.

Very nice location for Tokyo if you’re there alone and looking to just have a place to sleep. Very helpful staff and easy access to a good subway line. Close to Tokyo station (10-15 minute walk), and a lot of Ginza shopping. Room is literally the size of a double bed (not quite a queen) with a ledge on bed you can sit on. Tiny clean shower and small sink area. They give you a fresh bathrobe every day, which is great

The hotel is convenient and well maintained. The rooms are mid sized with good sized beds. Beds are on the firmer side. If you are mobility restricted you will find these rooms not appropriate. Air conditioning was a bit less than adequate but was definitely cooler than outside. The rooms are secure and only people with rooms on your floor can get to your floor. The rooms are dark and where the location is between buildings there is no view. All this being said, for the area, the price was great and the hotel was convenient, safe and clean.

Property was nice but the rooms were very small. Smaller than others we stayed in in Japan. There is no place for luggage and the rooms do not have enough space to walk around the beds. We were however able to log into Netflix which was not an option at other hotels. It was a friendly, youthful hotel but not terribly comfortable.
