Overall stay was enjoyable but had to search for a sim card so I had adequate phone internet access.
Pros:

Room was close to Shinjuku and reasonably priced.

Cons:

No working Wi-Fi really caused me to downgrade my review. Otherwise I would have no complaints with the staff, room, or price.

Ani planlanan tatil olduğu için otel bulamadım boş oda bir tek burada kalmıştı oteli tuttum yorumları okuduktan sonra ip
Pros:

Konum.

Cons:

Eşyalar çok eskiydi. Temizlik yapılmıştı ama detaylı değildi. Saatlik kiramalara açık olduğu için rahatsız ediciydi.

Completely Disaster
Pros:

Only location, nothing more, nothing...

Cons:

I've been using this app for all my international travels for 10 years. This is my third trip to Japan, and based on my experiences, I thought I'd be satisfied even with the worst hotel, but this was a complete disaster. It's a very old hotel offering daily or hourly bookings. The furnishings are at least 50 years old. Imagine, there's a VHS tape player! It's impossible for a normal person to fit in the toilet. Even the hotel I stayed in in Osaka, which cost a third of this price, had a modern toilet system. You have to bend down to shower, the tiles are bright yellow. The water heater was sticky. All the buttons were dirty, the bottom of the bed was bright yellow, you can see it in the photos. There's no Wi-Fi in the hotel, not just slow, but completely nonexistent. You connect to the modem, but it says there's no internet access. When I told the staff at check-in, they just said "we're sorry." They don't speak any English. You can stay in a much better place for 14,000 yen a day. The only positive is the location, but the surrounding area is full of much better hotels. I wrote to customer service through the app, but they didn't even respond... This app is over for me; I thought it protected the user.
