Guest Reviews
- Azharuzaman (10/5): - Everything’s perfect. Plus point near the train station 😄 N/A
- Golanov (2/5): Ich bin wortwörtlich erschüttert - Die Lage war gut Ich war insgesamt sehr enttäuscht von dieser Unterkunft und halte das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis für nicht angemessen.
Das Bett war äußerst unbequem, man spürt jede einzelne Feder deutlich im Rücken, was den Schlaf stark beeinträchtigt. Für zwei Personen ist die Unterkunft zudem viel zu eng. Es gibt keinen Duschvorhang, wodurch das Badezimmer nach dem Duschen schnell nass wird. Zusätzlich kommt es durch die nahegelegene Bahn regelmäßig zu erdbebenartigen Erschütterungen.
Der Fernseher war praktisch nicht nutzbar, da sich die Lautstärke nicht über Stufe 1 hinaus erhöhen ließ. Der Balkon wirkt ungepflegt und wenig einladend, zudem waren viele der Wäscheklammern bereits beschädigt.
Besonders negativ fiel der Check-in auf: Die Organisation ist unnötig kompliziert. Man muss sich durch mehrere Dokumente arbeiten, um herauszufinden, dass man einen QR-Code benötigt, um den PIN-Code in einer etwa 15 Minuten entfernten Bar abzuholen. Nach vielen Monaten des Reisens habe ich selten einen derart unpraktischen Ablauf erlebt.
Auch der Service war enttäuschend. Eine einfache Datumsänderung gestaltete sich schwierig und langwierig, sodass schließlich der Support von Booking.com eingeschaltet werden musste. Der gesamte Prozess war stressig und zog sich über mehrere Tage hin. Zudem wurde die ohnehin sehr hohe Reinigungsgebühr teilweise erneut berechnet.
- Jianne (10/5): -
- Stephane (7/5): - La situation géographique
Prix à la nuitée Très très petit logement
Lit à resort très inconfortable.
- Jairus (8/5): - Good location, close to food and convenience stores. Complete amenities. Great value Unsightly stains on comforter, unpleasant odor in bathroom drain
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Rodrigo (10/5): Amazing value for money, small cosy room in perfect Tokyo location - The location was absolutely amazing. Just one stop away from Yamanote line. Also, in these area of Ikebukuro, there is a lot of things to do and we got to explore it as well. This house was also in a very calm and quiet neighborhood that we were happy to walk along, but it had convenience, stores, supermarkets, and everything we needed nearby even the water vending machine.
The apartment itself is extremely small, but if you are organize, it is 100% doable. It had a lot of storage space for our luggage. Very small table are very small hallway and a decent sized bathroom.the shower was actually pretty good.the main bed was comfortable but floor bed for one person was not as much but we’d ended up being OK by putting some blankets and stuff on top.it also has good lighting a window that you can open to the outdoors and it has air in the air-conditioning for both heat and cold. Dot dot
The stuff was absolutely amazing and helped us from the beginning to the end making suggestions for our trip. Warning is about important stuff and always being super fast and responsive whenever we had any question. Also the fact that it’s self check-in is pretty good.
Overall amazing value for money in a great location The only problem for us was that the corridor the hall to the actual bedroom smelled pretty bad, but if you close the door to the bedroom, we wouldn’t smell it. Also, it has a very small kitchen. It is probably doable to cook there, but I would not recommend his. There is very little space but he has a decent size fridge, which was good and also a microwave..

- Nik Najhan (8/5): - Near to Shiinamachi Station.
- Carson (4/5): - The pictures are realistic. Bath is clean Very dusty and mattress is very worn down with palpable springs that feel they may break, not suitable for 3 people despite listing.
- Wael Elrafih (6/5): Decent for Japan units and prices.. - Good location and close to the train station. Clean and quick response from host. Uncomfortable bed, had to sleep on the edge because it was the only decent part of the mattress that wasn't worn out. Cold, heater isn't the greatest and windows let in a lot of cold air, I was traveling in early December. Small unit, but expected in Japan
- Phoebe (7/5): Stayed here for 2 night fairly cheap price and it was convenient as it was close to the train station. -

- Tzu Chiang (6/5): 房間比預期的小,初躺在床墊有顯著的金屬彈簧觸感,感覺不好,但首晚睡過後,體感比想像中好。電車經過時,可感覺房間在震動。椎名町站鄰近有超市與商店街,生活機能方便。 -
- Balqis Maesara (10/5): Great place! Thanks to the owner for having us🙏🏽 - I’ve been seeing reviews of the train being loud, but it actually wasn’t that bad. It’s 5 mins walk away from Shiinamachi Station and one stop away from Ikebukuro Station so it’s close by, and the neighbourhood was safe and tranquil. Would definitely stay again. Nothing to not like, but would be great to have some lights in front of the door. It’s a bit dark so sometimes it can feel a bit scary when I open the door at night. But I trust it’s a safe neighbourhood, but nothing wrong with being a bit more vigilant I guess.

- Teresita Guzman (10/5): Close to a metro station and close to Ikebukuro - I really like that there was a washing machine for the clothes and hangers to let it dry. Also I loves that there was a microwave. Everything was ok.
- Fillipi (6/5): Quite cramped but otherwise ok! - Check in is straightforward, location is 5 minutes from shiinamachi station. All the facilities mentioned working properly (bathroom with hot water, kitchen, tv, internet). All the facility is too small for 3 person. They provide futon bed but it is too thin and too cold to since it touch the floor directly (I might do something wrong since I don’t know how to use futon before, also I’m not used to sleep on futon so it might be just me that don’t find it enough). The bed is also quite tough, you can feel the spring a little bit on your back. There is washing machine but since it’s in japanese and the texts start to peel off I decided not to use it to prevent fault in operation. Bathroom is quite cramped but enough.
- Natalia (7/5): Good - nice location-communicative & helpful host- overall good bang for ur buck. couldve had a deeper clean
- Serge (6/5): A nice apartment for a nice price if its under 90 euro per night - The location was nice.
It was silent the whole night only sometimes was a train passing and the apartment is vibrating but it's OK I sleep well. The bed was hard but for me it's never mind because I can sleep also directly on the flour. Important is the key. Check exactly the mails and WhatsApp if they send u there the code for enter the apartment. Not far is a 7 Eleven grocery 24 hours open and have good salad and food. The internet was really fast in the apartment and the shower was fine.
For stay some nights for 80 euro per night is really great. It is in Tokyo, one of the expensive city everybody says. Nice apartment for a nice price.
If I will go again to Tokyo and this apartment is available for the same price I will go again there. But if it becomes more higher price 100 euro + than i say it's not worth. The matrass from the bed was hard. At 6 or 7 starts that more trains are driving and that is a little noisy.
- Danilo (9/5): Superb -
- Natalie (4/5): Disappointing - - Location was great!
- had an iron - really uncomfortable beds
- a bit run-down
- bathroom was impractical for Japanese standards (floor got wet, and toilet was inside as well)
- Francisco (7/5): When in a pinch, this place gets the job done. - This place was in a nice little neighborhood! A five minute walk gets you to the Shiinamachi station where we were able to get around quickly to most of our places. The decoration made the room cozy! Check-in was easy and without fuss. It is very much not tall people-friendly! Tall people, beware! You will have a hard time getting around this place. The comfort could be slightly better, but I’m willing to overlook that for the relatively small price.
- Boa (4/5): It was a mediocre stay. - The location was very good. • The upstairs neighbours made a lot of noise. They were very loud, all day long.
• There were little insects in the kitchen/sink. Also in the bathroom.
• The accommodation was not clean at all: a lot of hairs, dust, spiderwebs, …
- Sella (7/5): Good - the equipment soo complete
- Jacky (7/5): Good -
- Hardik (10/5): Exceptional -
