Great value hotel, the surrounding are is very noisy and there’s a lot of nightlife activities
Andres, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

I think hotel cen is a great option for the price point. The hotel is a bit less nice than the photos (but overall well kept and fine) and it’s very conveniently located next to the subway. The staff was friendly and the rooms (although small) did the trick.

The staff are all really amazing. They’re all really willing to assist with any questions you might have.

Better Accomodations at a Better Price Elsewhere

My room smelled like a dirty sock, to the point that I couldn't sleep because of the smell. I had to run to Daiso for fabric refresher and use the entire thing on the tiny room. I recommend for the GM to have the carpets cleaned thoroughly ASAP. Gross feet + Tokyo humidity = gross smells. Also I was disappointed the breakfast that came with my booking wasa coffee, 2 mini croissants and a large spoonful of potato salad. I don't really recommend this hotel unless you really want or need to have LGBTQ+ friendly. The cafe staff members were wonderful.

Friendly staff. Room was expectedly small but served its purpose. Breakfast was simple but good. The bar was lovely to hang out in. Dryer in laundry was average but signage tells you this.

ホテル自体はとても綺麗です。 部屋も清潔感があり良かったです。 ただ、写真でみた感じだと部屋の広さが分かりにくかったです。 実際にチェックインして部屋に入ってみると、 2人で過ごすには狭すぎるなと思いました。 またエレベーターのすぐ横の部屋だった為 人が乗り降りする時、声がうるさかったです。

新大久保のど真ん中にコスパ良いところ

チェックイン時にシステムトラブルがあったり、宿泊客が誕生日パーティー？で廊下で騒いでいたりなどハプニングはあったが、ファシリティも良いし、清潔感も非常に高いのでリーゾナブルと思う。

ミニマムですが、オシャレなホテルです。

部屋は狭いですが、モノトーン調の綺麗なホテルです。 オープンテラスなカフェも併設されています。 新大久保の奥、歌舞伎町からも近く、場所的にあまり治安は良くないですが、セキュリティはしっかりしています。 登録がタッチパネルなのは、コロナ禍で不安が残りました。

..and there's a rooftop!

Great shower (it's definitely small though) with proper pressure and nice and firm mattress - what more you need from your hotel in Tokyo? Excellent staff - helpful and speaks English.

安いのにお洒落でキレイでした◎

お洒落なデザインで清潔感もあり快適でした。ホテル自体のスタッフの方は親切な対応でしたが、カフェの店員さんが無愛想で残念でした。またリピートしたいです。

また利用したいです。

とても居心地が良かったです。壁が薄いのか、少し、外の音が入ってきますが、個人的にはそこまで気にならないレベルでした。
