Great value for the money
Pros:

The staff were extremely helpful. The location was great. Very close two different subway stations. Walkable from Shinjuku. The room needed some renewal but it was as shown in the pictures. We had a window although our room was in the basement. Good value for the money

Cons:

The room needs some renewal

Nice location, lovely staff in Tokyo!
Pros:

Staff was lovely and location was really good!

Cons:

It wasnt bad, but the bed had too little space to get into and up from comfortably. Again, wasn’t the end of the world and the rest made up for this but do take this into account if you book it!

Fiyat performans konaklama
Pros:

Konumu oldukça iyi Shinjuku bölgesine çok yakın. Yakınında metro hattı var. Camlar açılabiliyor içeride hava temizleyici de mevcut. Çalışanlar tatlı ve ilgili.

Cons:

Odalar biraz küçük ve odamızda yatağa erişmek için dik bir merdiven çıkmamız gerekti oda loft/ ranza gibiydi. Eğer merdiven tırmanabilecek genç kişiler değilseniz bu odayı tercih etmeyin.

Pratique car bien localisé au centre de Shinjuku
Pros:

La localisation très centrale et pratique. Proche du métro et dans un quartier calme au centre du quartier très animé de Shinjuku.

Cons:

Il y avait peu d’air dans la chambre et le lit était court et placé sur une mezzanine. Plutôt cher!
