• izutani (9/5): -
• Chad (8/5): - The tatami matting with a futon ended up being greater than expected. At first the futon. Could probably use some denser ones, especially as I'm on the heavier side. I just used the futon cover/dunar they provided as an extra matting and requested a blanket, super comfy after that.
• Dorian (8/5): -
• Asuncion (8/5): I like the area . - The location It’s our first time with the Japanese bed and seemed uncomfortable for us.

• Marie-claire (10/5): Super rapport qualité prix si on aime dormir sur un futon - L’hôtel correspond au descriptif. La propreté permet de supporter les douches et les toilettes collectives. Le rapport qualité prix est top Dormir sur un futon au sol est un peu raide quand même qu’on n’est pas habitué
• Lesley (8/5): Great value, location and very clean. - It is an excellent location, affordable and clean. It was very quiet.
• Dzvenyslava (8/5): -

• Olia (8/5): Good - It was a good-feeling place with lots of locals. The room was cozy, and I liked how the shower was organized! Atmosphere-wise: everyone to himself, not touristy and not business-hotely too much. The bathtub was fully booked when I checked-in Entrance gets really crowded since there is cafe downstairs
• Ngoc (9/5): 1 week -
• Charlotta (5/5): Good location and potential but some rooms have a problem with damp. - The location is great, lots of vibrant eateries close by, and a quick walk to the train station. We liked the entrance, cute cafe and communal area. I also like the fact that it has a traditional Japanese bathtub although we didn’t have time to use it ourselves. Robes were a really nice touch and something that we didn’t get at every guest house we stayed at in Japan. Our room although clean and well presented traditional Japanese style which is what we were hoping for, let us down because of the odour of damp. At first we thought it was a strong feet smell but then we noticed the shower severely leaking close to the room, and put two and two together and realised that there was a damp problem with the rooms on that side of the building. We also noticed the staff were running dehumidifiers in those areas of the building 24/7. Then, when we went to the staff to let them know about the smell and asked to switch to a different room, the man we spoke to said that was just what tatami smells like. This did not seem right at all, as we were of the understanding tatami has a nice straw like smell, not like smelly feet at all. After pushing a bit more he agreed to move us to a different room, which quite unsurprisingly smelt absolutely fine. This guesthouse has all the potential to be an amazing stay, but they need to get on top of this damp issue and quickly before more customers are put off like we were.
• Konrad (8/5): Good value - Location is great, clean japanese style rooms Tiny shared toilets, even for japanese standard, because the building is also a cafe i couldn't find any staff to check me in, plus the slippers and my shoes in shoe shelves they provide were taken and moved by other clients/guests
• Simea Mira (7/5): - The Ryokan lies in a very underrated neighbourhood of Tokyo, it has a small cafe inside and is very cute! The rooms are small, but bigger than I excpected, we were tracelling with a bakcpack so it wasn‘t a problem at all, but I think if you have big suitcases you‘d have to put aways the mats before opening it. The toilets were clean and it had everything you needed. The staff was super helpful with our luggage-service to another hotel etc. The room did smell a bit, but we had a window, wich helped a lot, however I don‘t know if it‘s the matts or something else but it did kind of smell like mold. It did not bother us as much since we really only slept there. The showers need a deep cleaning! There was mold on the roof and the showerhead in one of the showers. And something that isn‘t the hotels fault but could be communicated to the guests is that you shouldn‘t be loud after 11pm. We had neighbours that were brushing their teeth and spitting very loudly for a very long time.
• Jeannine (7/5): Basic en goedkoop - Rustig gelegen en vriendelijk personeel Eigenlijk heel basic, voor sommigen is dat goed anderen niet
• Flora Genius (9/5): - A good location for a great price! Have stayed here many times over the years, and while the communal TV area isn't quite there for random interactions anymore a cafe downstairs is inviting in its own way.
• Estelle (10/5): -
• Leslie (8/5): -
• Anaïs (5/5): Bon emplacement, chambre petite, lits confortables. - Les lits sont confortables et les couettes permettent de ne pas avoir froid durant la nuit. Pas eu le ménage prévu, mal isolé phonétiquement.

• Mateo (9/5): - couvre feu à minuit.
• Nadia (9/5): -
• FRANCISCO (4/5): -
• FRANCISCO (4/5): Calidad muy ajustada - La cafetería El tamaño de las habitaciones y el olor de las habitaciones
• 爆音 (6/5): -
• Henri (6/5): -
• YU TING (8/5): -
• Chteph (6/5): Expérience gâchée - L'authenticité du lieu, le vieux bois, les yukata dans la chambre (même si nous ne les avons pas utilisés). Personnel très aimable, possibilité de laisser se bagages à la bagagerie, l'accès a la salle pour manger (des assiettes/couverts seraient utiles). À peu près tout le reste : - odeur vraiment difficilement soutenable dans la chambre, qui a imprégné nos habits, heureusement que c'étaient les deux dernières de notre voyage - douches mal conçues, impossibilité de poser ses affaires, lavabo ouverts à la vue de tous. - irrespect des autres locataires de l'hôtel : qui crient dans les couloirs même tard le soir, utilisent des sèches cheveux à 23h, enfants qui crient et courent partout et à toute heure... On avait la chambre à côté des douches ce qui n'aide pas à bien dormir... + la saleté des gens : toilettes sales, tapis de bain n'en parlons pas. - futons vraiment très fins donc peu confortables. Nous avions beaucoup d'attente et nous avons été déçus.

• Maria chiara (9/5): -
• William (8/5): - Helpful staff, we arrived late and they were accommodating
• Vincent (10/5): Base de vie très pratique pour 5 jours à Tokyo - Très bien placé et fonctionnel Rien à signaler
• 柴田 (7/5): 池袋でホームステイ　池袋でミーツザワールド - この料金で個室 海外のお客さんが多かったけれど、嫌な感じの人はいない。 設備が古く鍵がかかりにくいし抜けにくい。 窓はあるのに外が見えない。
• Mylene (10/5): Petit hôtel calme et paisible au sein de Tokyo - Accueil charmant! Très joli et typiquement japonais. Petit café au rez-de-chaussée avec de super bons matchas lattés. Possibilité de privatiser le bain sous réservation en soirée.
• Alicia (7/5): Helt okej. - Läget var bra, det låg nära stationen så det var lätt att ta sig omkring. Trevlig personal. Vårt rum luktade väldigt instängt trots att vi vädrade. Vår AC kunde inte heller värma upp rummet så det var ständigt kallt och man låg och frös, vi höjde temperaturen till 30 men det var iskallt. Kom också en obehaglig lukt från AC:n. Det var inte heller särskilt bekvämt att sova på futoner, men detta är ju endast vår åsikt.
• Patrycja (9/5): - Przemiły personel (w szczególności Pan Japończyk w okularach z recepcji), wszelkie niezbędne udogodnienia na miejscu. Po wcześniejszym uzgodnieniu z recepcją istnieje możliwość skorzystania z kąpieli w tradycyjnej japońskiej wannie (super sprawa). Na dole znajduje się bardzo przyjemna kawiarnia, można zjeść smaczne śniadanie, lunch czy wypić naprawdę dobrą kawę (matche też!). Lokalizacja również na duży plus, w zasięgu krótkiego spaceru znajduje się stacja Ikebukuro. Brak zastrzeżeń.
• 儀 (10/5): 整體經驗都很不錯。以後會再來 - 離池袋站十分鐘走路距離，可以接受。整棟旅館都很乾淨，風呂設施也很好。工作人員親切負責。有小陽台可以抽煙。 不一定能預約到風呂服務。
• LUC (6/5): Not a very comfortable room, but one of the cheapest hotel in Tokyo - Good price for Tokyo. Place is clean and staff is nice and efficient. There's a coffee shop in the building (didn't try it, but it's a good point). Rooftop smoking area. Very small room. Strong humidity smell. View on a very near wall (like often in Tokyo). Not a place for claustrophobic persons!

• Hannah (8/5): Cute traditional Japanese rooms - We liked the traditional Japanese style facilities with the beds on the floor and they provided Yukatas to use which was fun. The room was very cute and cozy too. It's a pretty quick walk from the station with quite a bit to do in the area. The curfew is very strict, which was a little frustrating when we wanted to stay out with friends while on vacation in Tokyo. They won't let you in or out between 1am and 7am, which we found to be difficult. The rooms were pretty small, but that wasn't too big of a deal for us. The staff also wasn't super welcoming. They weren't rude, but just kind of kept to themselves and didn't interact with us much.
• Eric (9/5): - The hotel and the neighbourhood was quiet at night. There’s a futon in the hotel that you can reserve for every night of your stay. There’s an emergency light next to the window of my room but there’s no curtain because the room is traditional Japanese room so the light came into the room making it a bit bright for sleeping…

• Tianlong (10/5): -
• Maria (10/5): - The location for this stay was great! as all of the staff were super friendly upon arrival, as definitely checking the cafe they have is worth to see! As being able to experience a full traditional stay is definitely something to try and Kimi Ryokan is that place!
• Flavio (10/5): Oasi di pace in pieno IKEBUKURO - Tutto
• Gillian (10/5): - Great location easy access to the Yamamoto line made it easy for sightseeing.
• ronald (7/5): -
• Susanna (10/5): Loved every minute of it. - Superb location. Beautiful design. Friendly staff. All amenities one would want. Amazing price. Nothing
• Claudia (8/5): -
• Luca (6/5): -
• Marian (9/5): - Fijne locatie en heel lief personeel! Het slapen op een futon is iets minder aan mij besteed.
• Susanna (10/5): Perfect - Wonderful staff, excellent design, great value. Thank you.

• SIK YAT (8/5): -
• Alex (8/5): -
• Nguyễn (9/5): - Everything was fantastic. The staffs are welcoming, while the atmosphere is cozy. A good place to shelter in the cold weather. My room smells a bit moldy but my friend's one didn't. But I think it's kinda unavoidable since it was rainy and wet weather.
• Arjan (8/5): -
• Joanna (8/5): - La localisation Les sanitaires communs un peu dans leur jus

• Andreas (9/5): Einfach, besonders, preiswert und gut. - Es handelt sich um eine sehr einfache Unterkunft mit spärlich ausgestattetem Zimmer. Als Alleinreisender hatte ich ein Doppelzimmer gebucht und damit ausreichend Platz. Für mich war die Unterkunft Preis-wert! Die Lage in Ikekuburo ist gut, in einer sehr ruhigen Seitenstraße. Im Haus befindet sich ein einfaches Öko-Café, geöffnet Dienstag bis Sonntag von 8:30 - 17:30 h Das Zimmer ist ausschließlich mit einer Ablage, einem Futon und Bettwäsche ausgestattet. Und Klimaanlage, aber ohne echte Fenster. Alles sehr einfach, die Sanitäranlagen teilen sich die Gäste - das war bekannt. Sicher nichts für jemanden, der einen hohen Standard gewohnt ist, aber wenn man Spaß an neuen Erfahrungen hat, ein perfekter Ort!
• Yukie (3/5): - 壁が薄く、周りの音がうるさかった
• satou (6/5): - 意外と静かでよかった。
• Paolo_Folchitto (10/5): Sarà la mia dimora ogni volta che tornerò a Tokyo. - Meraviglioso soggiorno. Pulizia impeccabile, posizione ottima a 10 minuti dalla metro Ikebukura. Spero di tornare presto. Ogno cosa è perfetta
• 蔡旻岳 (8/5): - 在池袋這種市中心，竟然有這樣的榻榻米房可以住，尤其又是這種價格 要是你連續兩天以上入住的，一定要用幾個小時的時間在一樓的咖啡廳體驗 （一般最早入住在下午三點，咖啡廳五點多關閉，除非你是提早到達的不然容易在世界上錯過他們的咖啡廳）
• Jeff (8/5): Good for the pruce - Close to main station in Ikebukuro. Good coffee on site as well as the Japenese bath Having to plan around curfew hours and availability of bath.
• Chiara (7/5): -
• Jesper (10/5): - Es hat alles gestimmt. Die Lage ist super und Shibuya sowie Shinjuku lassen sich sehr leicht erreichen. Die Zimmer werden regelmäßig gesäubert und es gibt eine umfassende Ausstattung: Onsen, Waschmaschine, Trockner und mehr. Richtig gut ist auch das Essen im Café, das dazu gehört. Besonders den Schoko-Bananen-Kuchen kann ich empfehlen!
• Liisa (8/5): - Minimalistinen tyyli ja kylpy. Kylmyydestä.
• Juliane (10/5): Wundervolles Ryokan, ab jetzt meine feste Bleibe in Tokyo. - Unheimlich nette Atmosphäre, ich hab mein kleines Zimmer geliebt. Auch der Empfangsbereich war wunderschön, und die Lage für den Preis einfach perfekt.
• Igea (10/5): Amazing place to stay. Staff were so helpful & the Japanese hot bath at the end of the day was great - Amazing place to stay in Tokyo. Staff were so helpful and the Japanese hot bath at the end of a long day was brilliant. Nothing
• Marie (10/5): -
• miyu (5/5): 旅費を抑えたい友達との旅行にはいいと思う。 - 旅館ではないけど畳の部屋で布団で宿泊できる。清掃は毎日している様子でゲストハウスの割には水回りは綺麗だと思う。 夜1時以降は出入りできないので1時までに帰る必要がある。また、ゲストハウスなので水回りは共有、扉を閉めても廊下を歩いてる人の声や足音が聞こえるし、外の車の音もうるさい。
