I read through all the reviews again and again and when I went there I was 100% convinced of this hotel. Has everything you need and is very clean. The rooms are actually a bit small and definitely not suitable for 2 people. The bathroom mirror and toilet seat are heated. There are sockets for different types of connections and you don't need an adapter. Depending on which room you get, you also have a nice view. Unfortunately you can't open the windows.

Its fine. APA hotels are all pretty standard it seems.Clean, tiny. Rooms cleaned every 4th day if you are staying that long it says.Location is walkable from shinjuku station or shin okubo station. Convenient to explore shinjuku. Pretty dirty area but the hotel is clean.There are 3 APA hotels close together so be careful to get the right one.

Very bad experience in this hotel.We booked several nights at this hotel. Going back and forth to Tokyo. Particularly because it is noted that they offer a luggage storage service. Only impossible to leave our suitcases there outside of check out day. Which really put us in difficulty. We had to find a solution. Because the person at reception was really annoyed and told us (really annoyed) that there was a locker further away. After checking our suitcases were not suitable and they were full!! We had to use a luggage storage service! To come back the next day 😟During our visit, they mixed up our reservations. In addition, some rooms smell of urine.We still have two more visits to this hotel but we are nervous about going back!

It’s fantastic for what it is. No frills, nice clean room (rather small but that’s posted on listings so don’t be surprised) in a great locations for public transport or walking activities. Shinjuku is one of my favorite places and this is a spot I enjoy going back to rest at.

Great hotel in Shinjuku district! Small room and bathroom, but clean and tidy. Friendly and helpful staff, ready to help in English for any eventuality. They clean the room every 3 days, but if the linen is left outside the door in a special bag, it is supplied clean.
