Unique hotel in good location

Loved the location of this hotel - super short walk from a main station and close to the main street in Akihabara. The bathroom was pretty small but the room itself was spacious and the beds were comfortable. You can definitely hear the train but it didn't bother us.

Perfect location near to Akihabara station. Family of 4 slept comfortably on each bed. Sound of train didn't bother us since we were so tired from all day adventures. Bath/toilet room might be a little tight for big people but we didn't had an issue. Free amenities include mask and wash cloth, toothbrush etc .. were great. Front desk stuff can speak both English and Japanese thoroughly and very helpful. Key coffee shop within is also great. Very tasty hot coffee. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

wonderful hotel!! would stay again anytime

my family of four traveled to Tokyo for the first time. This hotel is located perfectly next to Akihabara station. it is a two minute walk to the station literally allowing us to access all Tokyo had to offer. Our room was spacious enough for all four of us and the beds were extremely comfortable and clean. The café is exceptional the coffee the breakfast foods and the dinner foods were well beyond what you would expect. I would definitely enjoy the café more often had I known better. Is extremely safe all throughout Tokyo and I felt very comfortable in this hotel. The best part of this hotel was the staff they go above and beyond to help you especially being from the United States. They are extremely kind. I had lost my passport at Narita airport. The staff took it upon themselves to notify the airport locate my passport and then give me exact instructions on how to retrieve it. They gave me exact directions via public transit which is much cheaper than taxi service in Tokyo. I couldn’t have been more thankful and again they were absolutely wonderful in helping me. I would not hesitate to stay here at any point if I return to Tokyo. It’s also conveniently located next to electricity which is fun for a family. thank you so much for making our family trip so wonderful

Will need to get used to the railway train. I thought there might've been a sound wall or "new tech" to shield some of train sounds, but it was a tough transition for my ears. Front desk service was helpful in looking up airport transportation options & luggage storage. Tight room for a family of 5 but we made it through.

A very practical and unique stay. Right in the heart of the anime district and a short 5 minute walk from Akihabara train station, this hotel has everything you need. Built under the railway, you get a true sense of the hussle and bustle of Tokyo life. We loved it
