Pros:

La posizione centrale

Cons:

Le dimensioni della stanza, troppo piccola per aprire una valigia grande. Inoltre, le lavatrici e l’asciugatrice disponibili sono sporche, ho lasciato i panni per un’ora in asciugatrice, dopo averla pulita io alla meglio, non solo non sono usciti asciutti nonostante 60 minuti di asciugatura, ma si sono sporcati al suo interno.

Pros:

Tesis çalışanları oldukça kibar ve yardımseverdi. Otelin konumu gerçekten çok merkeziydi. Yakındaki metro durakları sayesinde Tokyo’nun hemen her yerine kolayca ulaşım sağlayabiliyorduk.

The hotel staff were very polite and helpful throughout our stay. The location was excellent and very central. Thanks to the nearby metro stations, it was easy to reach almost anywhere in Tokyo.

Cons:

Odalar inanılmaz derecede küçüktü. İki kişi olarak oldukça zorlandık; valizi açmak bile başlı başına bir problem haline geldi. Bunun Japonya’daki genel otel kültürüyle ilgili olduğunu düşünüyoruz fakat bizim için yine de oldukça konforsuzdu.

Bir diğer büyük problem ise asansörlerdi. Özellikle check-out saatlerinde asansör bekleme süresi 20 dakikayı bulabiliyor. 24 katlı bir otel için yalnızca 4 küçük asansör bulunuyor. Orta veya alt katlarda kalıyorsanız asansöre binebilmek neredeyse imkânsız hale geliyor. Üstelik alternatif olarak kullanılabilecek bir merdiven de yok :)

The rooms were incredibly small. As two people, we felt very cramped, and even opening our suitcases became a challenge. This may be common in Japan due to the general hotel culture, but it was still quite difficult for us in terms of comfort.

Another major issue was the elevators. Especially during check-out hours, you may end up waiting around 20 minutes for an elevator. For a 24-floor hotel, there are only 4 small elevators. If you stay on the middle or lower floors, it becomes almost impossible to get into one. There is also no practical staircase option available :)

Dias perfeitos em Tóquio
Pros:

O hotel é bem limpo, os funcionários são muito atenciosos e prestativos e a localização é excelente para quem quer aproveitar Tokio, Shinjuku é bem movimentada e tem uma vida noturna muito ativa, além disso, existem muitos restaurantes, lojas de conveniência e lojas como a donki bem perto, e a estação de metrô tem vazão para várias linhas que te dão acesso a qualquer lugar em Tóquio. Eu com certeza voltaria.

Cons:

O espaço do quarto em si é pequeno, mas não chegou a incomodar. É uma experiência. Once in Japan...
