The room is clean, and most important is the location. Just walk around 2 minutes to motomachi station.

The bathtub wasn't very clean. Also, a cleaning staff member mistakenly opened the door while I was still in the room, even though I hadn't checked out yet. Mistakes happen, but it was a bit unsettling.

It was clean and the access was good, which was great! However, they don't have hair straighteners for rent.

Very central hotel near Motomachi station - right in the vibrant Chinatown area. Good budget accommodation with simple but tasty breakfast. Staff were very helpful. Rooms were more spacious than others we paid more for. Recommend.

The hotel is below average of Japanese hotels. The hotel is quite dirty in Japan standard. Got some smell in the room. Good location.
