We loved the hotel. It was spotlessly clean, the staff were so kind and helpful, always plenty of coffee and tea plus numerous other goodies and the on site laundry facilities were cheap and efficient. We also loved the location - close to all the fun in Shinjuku but also far enough away to be a bit more peaceful. Plenty of great bars, clubs and restaurants close by. Can’t wait to come back!!
