Wanitchaya, Thailand

The staff here is absolutely amazing! Their English is great and always friendly and helpful. The rooms are very small, but if you’re here for travel it is more than enough to be comfortable. It is a great location! Shinjuku has a great night life and is close to the metro to get anywhere you need.

Anna, United States of America

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They provided all the things you cab think of, even umbrellas for when it rained. Very clean and nice facilities. Really great value for what you get! The bed was also amazingly comfortable.

James, United States of America

Hotel is located in a quiet alley off the main road. Room was very clean and quiet with good in-room facilities. No TV, but they provide a projector which you can use with your laptop if you bring an HDMI cord. Staff was super friendly and welcoming. Location was excellent - just a one minute walk to the nearest subway station.

Gloria, Philippines

Super friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are compact but efficient and extremely clean. Location is great -- steps from the nearest subway stop, and a 10 min walk from the busiest part of Shinjuku. The alley the property sits on is extremely quiet.

Room was quite small- would probably book somewhere bigger next time. Would have been nice if front desk had maps of the area/city map or metro maps.
Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was very pokey, but we have come to expect this of bathrooms on Japan. Good value compared to other hotels in the area

We didn't have a floormat in the bathroom.
Location was great, on a quiet residential street only a few minutes walk from the subway station. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Despite what I'd read in reviews about the small room size, I was pleasantly surprised that we had a decent-sized room.
