Stayed 6 nights and rooms are clean and decent. It is 5 min walk from station and 10 min to nearby tourists spots such as Godzilla Hotel, Don Quixote and such. The breakfast at the restaurant is decent.

Absolute trash APA. This place is brand new and already feels worn out. Peeling wallpaper, stink from the bathroom, no amenities, cheap mattress.Not actually all that close to Shinjuku eitherSuper overpriced, taxes are a rip off. Straight up no redeeming factors at allThis place is trash even by American budget hotel standards.If I had to do it over again, I would stay anywhere else.

Stayed here for two weeks. Great place overall. Didn't have a laundry and the breakfast was the same thing every day. Also on the edge of the red light district.

This is an appropriate business hotel.In Japan, Apa Hotel is a business hotel, but it is a bit expensive, but it is worth using.
