the building is older, and on the last 36 hours of our trip they where doing heavy work inside the room and that woke us up at a time i would consider kinda early. it is a no frills hotel so dont expect western amount of aminenities like a pool, but the staff is friendly and helpful. They do have a coin laundry which makes it nice when planning a trip meaning you can pack lite and wash as you go. Also the property is close to pubs so if your a night owl amd want to get a taste of local night life its an ideal location. and it is walking distance to akihabara. Overall i would give it a 5/5 rating, barring the minor problem at the end.

和室(畳)ではなく、空きスペースを個室化し、狭くてベッドが置けないから?布団が敷いてあるだけの部屋でした。加湿空気清浄機の水タンクは黒カビがびっしりで使う気になりませんでした。部屋自体の清潔感も今ひとつ。ただ、設備や備品は他の部屋と同じで不満はありません。 総合的に、他の普通の部屋より1泊あたり1000円くらい安いだけだったのでコスパは良くないです。

湯島駅から直ぐ。 フロントの対応も気持ち良かったです。 アメニティも沢山ありますが、目の前で出されるので、もう少しゆっくり選びたいかと。 お部屋はお掃除は行き届いていて綺麗ですが、古さは分かります。 タオル等々使い込んだ感じです。 廊下の声は聞こえます。 1人でゆったりするには十分です。 値段も手頃なので、リピしたいホテルです。

Pretty good value

Location was pretty good, about 3 blocks from :JR station Okachimachi, one or two blocks from 3 different Subway lines so easy to get around from here. Room was pretty good, as was internet, although did have some problems staying connected,but was fast enough when hooked up.. Only real complaint was coffee and breakfast at the hotel not available till 8am. We had to run across the street every morning to get coffee at the Family Mart. At least it was close. Sun comes up at arround 6 am (late October) so don't get the breakfast if you want an early start.Only other minor complaint is they use regular keys and want you to give them the key when you leave and show them a piece of paper when you return. With 2 people this can be problematic if you go different ways and you're not sure who will return first.

Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this hotel; location, service, service-mind of front office (especially the young lady which I couldn't remember her name, truly sorry, that tried to help us in contacting attraction we'd like to go and use only Japanese!) The only thing that I felt a bit unpleasant was a musty smell from their bed sheet and blanket; might be because it's rainy season
