The sauna was a plus though. Overall, if you’re up to try out the Japanese bathhouse onsen experience, then book this location 100%."

This is the second time we’ve stayed here. Both times as a family of 5 staying in 1 room.
We didn’t spend much time in the room or hotel other than to sleep but it was spacious and well appointed.
The hotel is very close to 4 stations and only a short walk to Tokyo Dome and with plenty of eating places close by.

Really good hotel in a great location a short walk from the JR station at Ikebukuro. The area around the hotel and station has a number of department stores and hundreds of small shops, bars, restaurants and everything you would need during your stay.
The JR line is the main line that does a loop around most of the places in Tokyo you would want to visit plus there are a few other lines that have a stop at this station.

There was a great vibe on the first floor, with a trendy bar and dining area, cocktails and desserts are always a winner. There was a communal area on 2F, it had what you needed as far as microwave and bits, with a great table. Generally quieter than I expected but it was easy to get to other areas, especially the fish market and the Tokyo flea market, both were excellent. The people were beautiful folk and very helpful.

This was a very conveniently located, reasonably priced hotel in Tokyo that was clean, friendly and had everything you could need. The onsen/ofuro baths were lovely.
My only issue is, as with many hotels in Japan, they try to force you to check in at a kiosk. I like the personal touch of a check in desk, and had to go to one anyway because of my foreign passport. I want to live world where I still get checked in by real people and I should have been given the choice.

Staff were kind and friendly and spoke good English. Common areas and facilities were neat and tidy but basic. Area is very quiet. The hostel itself is generally quiet but this (like always) depends on the other guests around you. The walls are pretty thin so if you are around noisy neighbours you will need earplugs. About a 10min walk to the nearest metro station. Otherwise a generally pleasant stay in Tokyo.
