Everything we needed! Super close to train station and a nice quiet neighbourhood. One stop away from Ikebukuro is convenient as well. Very spacious and would highly recommend!

Pros:Convenient location to the nearest station. The room/kitchen was very clean. Quiet neighborhood with nearby supermarkets & local restaurants.
Con’s: Forgot there’s no elevators. We had 4 heavy suitcases to haul up and down to the 4th floor however, it was a nice corner location . Great for long stays.

The place was clean, and has close to everything for a good stay. It is in a good location, close to train station. It is a good price for what offers. Now rating could be anywhere between 3.5 to 4.5 depends on what scale using and what compare to. Compared to ABNB, could be a 4 or close to 4.5. Compared to hotels category, more like a 3.5. Interior it matches a 4 hotel, but there are several things missing. Doesn't have a reception desk for check in and out, or an immediate need. Heating is a bit problematic. Cold on the floor while normal temperature above waist. Not so easy to adjust temperature. No towel change, or any cleaning in the room. No breakfast. Room on upper floor(s), with no elevator in building. Which is a problem for old people, people with disability, or even young healthy persons carrying heavy lugage. Depend on how much count for you any of the above, this place (it does fit better with ABNB than hotel concept), could be a good or not so good choice.

A spacious room/appartment for Japanese standards with everything you could need. There is a supermarket 1 minute away and the train station is 2 minutes away. It makes travelling so easy. I got the information about how to enter the facility and room 24 hours behorehand. Tip: follow the map given by the accomodation. We followed google maps and it took us to another location 10 minutes away. Everything was amazing. We got towels and everything was clean. Definitely recommend. The only thing I would change would be the lighting in the living room. It's white instead of warm. So it feels less cozy.

Nice little flat, noisy from the street and with somebody outside in the building making noise at 2 or 3 AM every night.
Lights from the street during the night are visible from the room.
So difficult to sleep well during 3 nights.

🌸 Alba Cerezo was the perfect Tokyo home base.
Quiet, clean, and tucked into a peaceful neighborhood — it gave us space to recharge after every adventure. We loved the cozy layout and how close it was to Ikebukuro without being in the chaos. It felt like our own little hideaway in the heart of Tokyo. Would absolutely stay again. 🏠

1 train stop away from everything you need - or a 15-20min walk! Wouldn't have been ideal if you're heading in and out a lot but we were out one in the morning and back at night and it was great.

Wohnung war Sauber und die Lage ideal nur paar Minuten von Kita-ikebukuro Station entfernt.
Um die Ecke gab es ein Lawson Markt der 24 Stunden offen war.
Auch die Kommunikation ausschließlich über E-Mail verlief gut, Check mit Bilder sehr leicht gestaltet.
Würde jederzeit gerne wieder kommen 😊
