Guest Reviews

• Cassandra (9/5): - L’appartement est assez grand, complet et pratique. Les instructions par message pour le check-in et le check-out sont sont complètes et il y a même un fascicule dans l’appartement pour nous guider concernant les différents équipements. Le lieux est bien desservi, proche de la station de Shinjuku. Malgré les rideaux la lumière est assez intense dès tôt le matin. L’appartement est un peu bruyant car la rue est assez passante.
• Soidrou (10/5): Parfait - Parfait Un peu petit pour 3 personnes mais ça va dans l’ensemble
• Bahia (7/5): Good and convenient - Good emplacement for a trip in Tokyo. Every details were written in the handbook. Dryer and bedside table would have been good. Gets really cold during winter. Bathrooms a bit small. Not much space to put toiletries or clothes.
• Rémy (6/5): - The documents the owner sent us via booking was amazing! It os clear and very helpful. However booking never sent us a notification, so we did not know of the documents. Please, send the documents directly to futur hosts if possible.
• CHRISTOS (9/5): - Big room
• WENWEI (10/5): - 交通方便，離新宿車站很近，適合旅程有安排鎌倉、江之島、川崎、高尾山的人。 晚上很安靜，走路5分鐘可以到超市，樓下附近也有便利商店。
• Elena Maria (10/5): -
• Nuria (1/5): pésima - La cercanía con el centro de la ciudad (pese a que era medio fea la zona) Te cobran un gasto oculto de 7.000 yenes, equivalente a 50 dólares, por la “limpieza”. Cuando llegamos al departamento estaba sucia la mesada de la cocina y el inodoro con sarro (sale con lavandina). La llave de entrada del edificio te la dan rota y desprendida del llavero, y encima dice que si la perdés la tenés que pagar (!!) Tanto el techo como el piso tiene roturas, y la puerta de entrada del departamento está sucia y oxidada. Se escucha todo, la calle y los vecinos (el vecino de arriba empieza su día a las 6:00 am). Las cortinas no cubren totalmente y por eso entra bastante luz desde que sale el sol; una de las cortinas está puesta con una varilla improvisada a punto de caerse. No sabía que había zonas feas en Shinjuku, pero las encontré y están acá a la vuelta, da miedo caminar de noche -y eso que soy de latinoamerica-. No hay ni una mesita de luz ni un velador y el televisor no permite usar netflix. Solo hay una luz de arriba completamente blanca, horrible. Encima el inodoro es como un inodoro de 1950. Hasta los inodoros del subte y del tren tienen bidet y varias funciones y este absolutamente nada. Le escribí por varios temas al propietario y me respondía una respuesta automática, no te resuelve nada. En resumen: El departamento NO sirve para tener un buen descanso que es lo principal que necesita un turista. Es el peor alojamiento en el que estuvimos en las 5 ciudades que recorrimos de Japón. El departamento a lo sumo sirve para dormir más o menos, lavar la ropa y tener aire acondicionado. Por menos plata nos alojamos antes en el hotel New Takada que es limpio, prolijo, no cobra cargos ocultos, no tiene ruidos molestos y está mejor ubicado.
• Sascha (7/5): -
• Daniel Cameron (9/5): - Great location close to stations, convenience stores , quiet , all the facilities you need... but a short hop to bustling centres and bars and restaurants. Very comfortable bed and good AC. All in good working order and easy to check in and out . A perfect stay for Shinjuku.
• Minima (6/5): We had a pleasant stay , once we got familiar with the location it was good and convenient. - Location convenient but not a busy area . Closer to main station
• Zehra (8/5): Very good -
• Ei (10/5): Very good - All like Don’t had
• John (1/5): Extremely disappointed in this apartment as it was the last leg of a special holiday for us. - Shower room and availability of washing machine were about the only two things we consider acceptable. Where do we start? The property was very dirty and the ceiling above the bed was mouldy with the paper peeling off. This was unacceptable to us. A list of the additional defects found is as follows: Mouldy window with wall paper peeling off. Damaged floor. Dirty window to dirty balcony. Extremely dirty front door on the inside. Dirty mirror. Power socket hanging off the wall. Photos in advert do not match the style, colour or actual furniture provided, which seems much older in reality. Jumble of wires and electrical items in front of the bed. Poor supply of utensils / cups / etc. Extremely poor soundproofing, all road and outside noise can be heard, also is on a main road which is not obvious when booking. On contacting the owner we were offered a paltry reduction in cost and since we left they have effectively said 'tough' and are no longer interested in resolving this - note Booking.com are no help either and have said they can't negotiate with the owners on our behalf. An addendum as the owner has commented on our review - we have stayed in hundreds of hotels and this is only the second bad review we have left. The photos we posted speak for themselves, the property simply does not resemble the advert AT ALL. Yes we asked for compensation, as it was extremely overpriced for what we received, and as we had booked this well in advance during Sakura season we could not get a replacement hotel last minute or we would have left. The refund was not as important as the fact this spoiled the end of a very special holiday!
• Catherine (9/5): Superb -
• Ramya (1/5): Pathetic - TV works but is a tiny little device. Washing machine worked. Location - decent if you don’t mind walking 10min to the closest bus or train station. Rundown, cold apartment. Dirty room. Bed, mattress, and pillows pathetic - fit for one person at best, not two. Kettle not working well - takes forever. Bathroom - no auto flush, tiny in size - can’t even keep your toiletries in, gotta wait for a looong time for hot water, dirty shower curtain, no brush to clean toilet and the flush isn’t good.
• Patrick (7/5): Good -
• Loulou (7/5): Great stay and host - The host was responsive and easy to communicate with. The location of this place is fantastic!! Overall, the room itself was decent and well equipped. The bed sheets weren't clean and the electricity voltage was low.
• Aubrey (10/5): Exceptional -
• Arturo (10/5): 10/10 in Shinjuku! - Absolutely amazing apartment in Shinjuku. Location is great and has every kind of amenities, super clean. Room is bigger than usual and Japan and the bed is confy. Is super easy to find and the host gives you tons of information so you can’t get lost trying to find it. nothing.
• Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
