Categories

Cleanliness
1
Multiple guests repeatedly praised cleanliness (clean, 綺麗, 很乾淨) and well-stocked toiletries; overall strong positive cleanliness sentiment.
Service
1
Staff were responsive in key moments (locked out resolved quickly) though some guests reported difficulty reaching staff by phone at times.
Location
1
Consistently praised: very close to train/bus stops, convenience stores nearby and convenient access to Ikebukuro/Shinjuku; clear positive location sentiment.
Room Quality
1
Mixed: rooms described as spacious and modern but several practical issues (no elevator, difficult 4th-floor access, heavy entry door, shaky table, some hard pillows) negatively affected stay comfort for multiple guests.
Amenities
1
Good range of in-room amenities noted (washing machine, dryer, iron, large fridge, toiletries, umbrellas) but some missing services (no luggage storage, no elevator) lowered the score slightly.
Value for Money
1
Several reviews explicitly called out strong cost-performance (コスパ最強) and would recommend/book again, indicating positive perceived value.
Food and Beverage
1
No on-site F&B noted and one report of a strong cooking/spicy odour in the building hall that spread into the apartment, which negatively impacted guest experience in this area.
Overall Experience
1
Overall sentiment is positive (recommendations, would book again, spacious and clean) but practical downsides (stairs/no lift, luggage issues, occasional noise or odour) tempered the overall score.
* This sentiment is summarized by AI based on user reviews.

Family Visit to Tokyo
Pros:

It was clean and simplistic.
Located close to the metro and one stop away from Ikebukuro main station.

Cons:

Appreciate that the properties in Tokyo is small. I would not recommend this property for 2 adults and 2 teenagers traveling as it is perhaps a little too small.

Bőröndök számára volt elegendő hely.
A lakás elhelyezkedése megfelelő... A közelben, több bolt is megtalálható. Úgyszintén a metró megálló is.

Cons:

A lift hiánya!
