Guest Reviews
- AYAKO (7/5): -
- Marlena (10/5): -
- irene (8/5): Super close to a metro station very well connected with the center, i would recommend this place to visit the city but s - Super close to a metro station very well connected with the center It was not really clean when we entered, but the owner was super gentle to us and asked if we wanted the apartment to be cleaned again
- Yuki (7/5): コスパよく泊まりたいのであれば十分な場所 - 駅から近く、コンビニも近くにあり便利でした。住宅街にあり静かだったのもよかったです。外観は古い感じでしたが中はリノベーションされていて清潔感があり水回りも困ったことはなかったです。 ドライヤーが使い古されていて内部に埃がたまっていました。風力は問題ないですが、発火リスクを考えると交換すべきかなと思いました。外廊下から隣のアパートのベランダが目に入り、そこがごみ屋敷っぽかったのが気分が良くなかったです。
- Susanna (10/5): - Nous sommes restés une seule nuit dans l’appartement Kosumosu, mais notre séjour a été très bien. L’appartement était prêt avant l'horaire du check-in et nous avons pu entrer avant. L'emplacement était parfait à côté du métro et commerces, mais dans une ruelle très calme!
Merci!

- Joachim (8/5): Schönes Appartement in zentraler Lage von Ibukero - Sehr zentrale Lage in Ibukero mit gutem Anschluß an die verschiedenen Bahnlinien. Die gesamte Ausstattung war quasi neuwertig und in top Zustand! Die Räume sind relativ klein, aber voll funktionsfähig.
- Ryosuke (8/5): コスパ最高 -
- Chihhung (7/5): 整體是舒服 - 旁邊有地鐵、超市、便利商店 垃圾不知如何處理,毛巾易有毛球

- Elisabeth (8/5): The overall experience was great and enjoyable. I would choose the accomodation again! - The apartment was conveniently located a 15 minute walk away from Ikebukuro station, but also a two minute walk to two different trains that connected to Shinjuku/Shibuya without having to go through Ikebukuro station (which can be quite confusing at first). It was very easy to find and the instructions from staff for the locks are suffecient.
I recommend taking the one stop from Ikebukuro station if you have lugagge as Kanamecho station has an elevator that isn't far away from the apartment and you will not have to walk.
The apartment (we stayed in 201) is on the smaller side, but enough for two people and a good size for Tokyo over all. If you life on the upper floors the stairs are narrow and carrying lugagge can be a struggle.
We were provided each with a set of towels (if you stay longer you have to wash them yourself or request fresh ones) and a bathroom mat. There is a washing machine, microwave, water boiler, fridge, freezer, one induction plate, an iron and a hair dryer - also shampoo, conditioner and bodywash is provided, as is a toothbrush. The kitchen is stocked with necessities like utensils and bowls.
During our stay there was communication with staff who asked if we needed anything, but we were satisfied.
The bathroom is small, but enough space for one person, the shower is spacious enough, there is a japanese style toilet with bidet and warmed seat, the water pressure is great and there is no shortage of warm water, so longer hot showers after a long day of walking are possible.
The beds are firm, but not uncomfortable. There are three pillows of different size and thickness provided, which is rare in my experience.
There is a smart tv that has Prime, Netflix and other apps which provide movies and shows in English or with English subtitles if you enjoy Anime. Screenshare from my iphone didn't work which wasn't a problem, but maybe it's important to know for some people. There was little storage for clothes. We stayed for 20 days and did bring an appropriate amount of clothing. There are 5 hooks provided in the main room to hang clothes and hangers (you will also need for drying clothes after washing though), but sadly there is no closet or shelf. I would have loved hooks at the entrance door to hang my jacket and scarf and maybe a small shelf somewhere (instead of the third chair that I mostly used as a storage for my clothes while my friend used the hooks).
The walls are also rather thin. This is only an issue if you have upstairs neighbours who are inconsiderate though, but we heard them walk around loudly at 2am, vacuum the floors at 11pm and do the washing at midnight. If you have light sleep or are bothered with those type of noises it can be annoying.
- Geik Choo (8/5): - Quite and convenient
- Kim (8/5): -
- Kassandra (10/5): -
- Martin (10/5): Amazing stay and will definitely come back in the future! - Very clean and the place is close to a lot of establishments and train stations. Nothing.
- Olivia (10/5): Nice - Comfortable and near mrt. Convenient too. None
- Serena (10/5): - clean room, large bathroom, we asked for an extra blanket and they had one delivered that day. Clear instructions for the unit. Easy to get to. Was a wonderful stay. Bed was a bit small for us and had a dip in the middle of the matress but my partner and I are quite tall so its understandable.
- Alberto Luiz (8/5): Boa custo/benefício para famílias em Tokyo - Boa localização, próximo a estação de metrô, supermercado, lojas de conveniência e restaurantes. O imóvel fica em rua tranquila e silenciosa, mas próximo de comércios. Wi-Fi funciona bem. Banheiro e chuveiro excelentes. Gostei das divisões de quarto/cozinha e banheiro. Para os padrões do Japão, o quarto até que tem bom espaço. O anfitrião me forneceu toalhas que estavam faltando pouco após eu ter solicitado. Foram atenciosos. Sistema de check in bem fácil de entender O cobertor adicional que estava num pacote embaixo da cama não estava tão limpo. Mas o resto do quarto estava bem limpo
- Teck Jing (10/5): Clean, Convenient and Comfortable - I had a great stay here and am very satisfied with the accommodation. The room was clean and thoughtfully prepared with all the basic necessities. The location is a big plus, as it is very close to Kanamecho Station and offers easy access to Ikebukuro Station. Overall, a comfortable and convenient place to stay. None.
- Celina (6/5): It was ok - Big room.
Close to another subway.
Very kind host and quick response While it looked tidy, it wasnt well cleaned. I found hair on the floor and pillow.
And i really hated the shower, in the middle of a shower it started to come cold water. Couldnt shower it off, tried on and off for 10 minutes but still cold.
Just because of this, I wont book this hotel again.
And there was a weird smell.
And it is NOT close to the ikebukuro main station. Depending on what exit you take it’s about 1km.
If you have money and time, you can transfer to the kanamecho station which was about 200m away which was convenient some days.
- Lynette (4/5): It was ok - Location No lights for most of stay. Slow to fix
- Kanokwan (10/5): ยอดเยี่ยม - ทำเลที่ตั้ง การตกแต่ง และสิ่งอำนวยความสะดวก ไม่มี

- Melanie (10/5): - Die Unterkunft liegt direkt an der Ubahn und auch fußläufig ist man am Bahnhof Ikebukuro innerhalb 10-15 Minuten. Schon vorab war die Unterkunft jederzeit hilfsbereit und hat sich trotz selbst check in immer wieder erkundigt ob alles passt. Es ist alles da was man braucht von Waschmaschine bis Wasserkocher alles da. Die Kopfkissen waren für uns Deutschen etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig ansonsten war es sehr gemütlich.
- Suzy (10/5): Great apartment in a perfect location - The apartment itself was very clean and tidy. The location was brilliant and central to a lot of place, about 20-30 minutes to main locations so it was super convenient. It was also on the side of Ikebukuro that wasn't as busy so it was really nice coming back to a slower paced vibe after being busy all day. Being within walking distance of two stations also gave us the opportunity to miss some of the busier train lines on the days we didn't feel like it. The only thing I could have wished for was a couple more towels and coat hangers. We were there for three weeks, which is longer than average so when we had to do our washing it was a little difficult getting things dried. The extra towels would have come in handy on washing days.
- Mark (10/5): -
- Krystyn (9/5): - Location was good, close to train station and convenience stores Narrow stairways for moving luggage
- Marcin (10/5): -
- Nikolaj K. (9/5): - Cozy, tidy place with modern and comfy equipment, high functional facilities and a good location to get into and around Tokyo.
- Gerard (10/5): - Todo perfecto. Apartamento espacioso, con ubicación de 10, cerca de la estación. Tiene lavadora. Los dueños muy atentos, recomendable.
- Sarah Elisa (9/5): -
- Pedro (9/5): All great but couldn't find the washing machine for the quadruple room - Easy location, clean, great value for money. My room didn't have access to the clothes washing machine

- MARCELO (8/5): Très bien ! - La proximité du commerce et du metro
Quartier calme Il avait trop de luminosité pendant la nuit et la matinée trop de soleil. Après avoir parlé avec le responsable, ils ont installé un rideau black-out

- May (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean, quiet and great location. Staff was quick to respond to messages. Tight stairways to floors but this is clearly stated in posting so it was not a surprise. Another fun experience living in Japan.
- Olga (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chloey (9/5): Superb -
- Hettiarachchige (10/5): Exceptional - It’s good value for prize.
- Tilson (8/5): Good c/p and nice to let family sleep comfortable - Have basic kitchen accessories and able to heat up dinner suppers. Clean up time is short. Towel is not replace everyday when we leave this apartment, would suggest to have clear notice letting guests to hang up wet towels and let it dry in indoor heating
- Madison (10/5): A neat, lovely accommodation close to many prime locations! - It was a very cute accommodation - very clean and neat. The shower was amazing! I also loved the little balcony outside. The location was very close to the subway and many of the places we had planned to go as well as things like convenience stores and marts. I loved my stay! Nothing :)
- Sonia (10/5): Exceptional -
- An (10/5): 讚 - The comfy atmosphere Nothing
- Ngiik (3/5): Poor -
- Marine (8/5): Very good - Clean and convenient place The apartment in the close building is full of garbage which is very disgusting. You can see all the trash in it’s balcony every time you go in your flat
- Suzie (8/5): Very good -
- Nabilah (9/5): Superb - Location is great and I think the space is just nice for two. No elevator but that is expected.

- Bhattarai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ai (10/5): It’s a beautiful wonderful room. Also, it’s very quiet. The nearby function is also perfect (Lawson, 7-11, Drug store, L - Everything is perfect and comfortable. Doing laundry is very convenient. The room is clean. There’s also a near by laundry store where you can dry your clothes. Lawson is also nearby. There are a little few hangers.
- Jan (8/5): Very good - Easy to reach via Metro, many grocery stores around. Clean facilities. Bathroom sink was clogged, vacuum cleaner did not work
- Mei (5/5): Passable - It was super small, unlike the photo shown. There was no bed sheet provided for the sofa bed. We booked it for 3 persons and 6 nights, but only 2 sets of towels for the whole stay provided. There was no kitchen cloths. The building next to it was very creepy and unpleasant with an apartment full of trash on the balcony.
- Sandra (9/5): Superb -
- Tanmay (10/5): Exceptional - Very good for the location
- Marita (10/5): Exceptional - I was looking for an accommodation for my parents, who would visit me for the first time in Japan.
They're both in their 60es and not used to bigger cities at all.
Luckily this accommodation was close to my apartment but still not located in the area that's crowded and noisy at night. The rooms were extremely clean and very well equipped. Even for older folks who didn't understand any English or Japanese they had no trouble using the facilities and had a great sleep in the double bed - even better than at home! This was huge for us.
Further, in bigger hotels you usually cannot open any windows and constantly hear your neighbours. Non of this was true for COSMOS. We barely heard any noises and could open the balcony door to get fresh air in.
I believe for Europeans this is a big deal, so I'd highly recommend! Not a big minus point, but the only thing I'd suggest would be a hanger for wet towels since they wouldn't dry hanging them over the barrel in the bath room. Maybe a hanger you can put under the tall table if not needed and take out when you actually need would do the job? (The ones they sell at Nitori)
- Thomas (10/5): a great value … kitchenette means prepare your own meals; clean and recently updated - with every possible appliance! - wow, so many amenities… and really comfortable size. great location for my needs. can’t think of any negative
- Meas (9/5): Superb - everything is clean and it was quite comfortable to stay. getting on and off the subway close to the property with luggages was a bit challenging.
