It feels more like a business hotel, the rooms are clean and have a nice bathroom with rain shower and bathtub, but the bed was really hard i dit not like this. double room) you can chose smoking or non smoking. Breakfast in standard (rice chicken and standaard mini croissants but no jam?) 1 fruit drink and coffee or tea. When i stayed here they where next door working on a construction side and my room was facing that side (07:00 till 17:00) this makes my rade for location 3 stars.

7 days and 6 nights¥48195 (TWD10153)Although it is a single room, the area is not large.Only the entrance can barely open the 29-inch suitcase.The bed is surprisingly big and can be rolled over as much as you want.It is a relatively firm bed.The quilt is not heavy but keeps you warm and doesn't make you sweat.Luggage racks, small refrigerators, safes, and kettles are all available.You have to pay to watch most TV content.There is a small shelf beside the bed to put your mobile phone.There are plenty of sockets, including USB, type C, etc.The hair dryer is wall-mounted which is inconvenient.But at least the location is at the table instead of the toilet...If you press it for too long, your hands will be sore and your long hair will be unfriendly.The sound insulation is good and I didn't hear any noise for 6 nights.Check-in is guided by a machine to generate a room card.Very convenient, even when checking out.There are vending machines, 3 washing machines, 2 dryers, etc. on the first floor, but the hotel has put white boards on the washing machines and dryers, asking users to write down their room numbers.When someone really forgets to take their clothes,The counter will only say: "I can't help it, do you have to use it today?"I'm really speechless at the moment🤷So the hotel whiteboard is worrying?In the end, there was nothing I could do about waiting for 30 minutes.I had to go upstairs and knock on the door to ask the tenant to come down and collect it.It's obviously a simple matter.Simple breakfast is provided every day.Rice, 5 dishes, packaged bread, juice 1, coffee,If you are traveling reluctantly for business,It’s really unacceptable to travel…Moreover, all internal use is disposable tableware, which is really wasteful...The meal time is also short, and the dishes will become less and less.You said it’s about not wasting food ingredients...?The location is very close to Kuramae Station.Less than 5 minutes walk,There are 24-hour mini supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, etc. in the surrounding area, and the environment is quite quiet.The circulation on the first floor is not good.Waiting for the elevator, resting and dining in the lobby are completely stuck together.Seems crowded.

The hotel is about a two-minute walk from Kuramae Station on the Asakusa Line. It is very convenient for going to Haneda Airport or Narita Airport. It is also only a 5-minute walk from the Oedo Line. The surrounding area is very quiet and great.

We didn't like the fact that check in it's at 4pm and check out at 10am. We had to make a local call to hospital and they charged us the cost of the call as well. And they were pushing for the check out. Not very pleased experience
