  Visita a Tokyo

  Habitaciones muy pequeñas,nosotros que veníamos de esquiar con todo el equipaje no hay armarios en las habitaciones para guardar nada. La planta de fumadores hace que el ascensor huela a tabaco. Y el desayuno nada adecuado para extranjeros. Tuvimos una incidencia y si que la resolvieron en cuanto pudieron.

  Mejor buscate otro hotel

  Las habitaciones son pequeñas pero son perfectas para una persona muy limpias, eso si no hay armarios. El staff parece muy amigable y digo parece porque no habla nada de ingles lo cual hace cualquier petición un dolor d cabeza. Para desayunar tienes que salir del hotel e ir a otro para tomar un ridiculo desayuno y lo peor sin duda es que estando en una zona tan ruidosa las habitaciones no son insonorizadas haciendo imposible dormir más de dos horas seguidas.

  Exceeded our expectations

  There are 4 APA Hotels in the neighbourhood of Shinjuku Higashi, most likely all of them are equally good. This one where we stayed is very close to a metro station, has a number of restaurants and 24 hr food shops, walking distance to Shinjuku Train Station where you can get the airport bus. The room we had is small but enough to accommodate 2 persons, very clean, well-maintained, provided shampoos, soaps and more, free water if staying for more than 1 night, has ref and coffee/tea facilities. They used the space so well, it could have many things available. The towels are new, the bed and pillows are comfortable. Will recommend to anyone who looks for reasonably priced, decent hotel in Tokyo.

  Lo necesario a un precio justo

  Una gran cadena de hoteles en Japón que nos brinda todo lo necesario para descansar por las noches y disfrutar del país todo el día. El hotel cuenta con todos los servicios básicos y en general está adaptado muy tecnológicamente para tener muy poca interacción con el staff. Lo recomiendo mucho y además está localizado muy cerca de la vida nocturna de Tokyo como lo es Shinjuku.

  Unfriendly staff

  Stayed in another APA hotel in Tokyo and had a lovely experience. The room was fine (micro as expected), nice and quiet too. However, the staff were rude and unhelpful...I dont know why? Everywhere I have been in Japan, the people have been so lovely, kind and helpful. I dont expect this when I am paying to stay in a hotel. Maybe it was a bad day for them? Otherwise, the hotel was fine and value for money if you want that micro Tokyo experience.

  Good hotel for the price

  You get what you pay for. We stayed here due to an issue with our flights. Since it was last minute, we were looking for a cheap hotel in an area that was close to the subway and ended up choosing this hotel for a two night stay. Compared to what I paid for other, much more spacious Japanese hotels; this place is on the cheaper side. I think it ran me about $200ish a night? I get that that still can be expensive and I bet theres other hotels around Tokyo that might be cheaper but I dont know if theyre as centrally located as this one. I at least couldnt find any cheaper hotels super last minute located in Shinjuku. I didnt read many of the reviews before booking and the ones I did read Im pretty sure were about the other Shinjuku APA hotel with an onsen. This hotel doesnt have an onsen. On that note, be careful to make sure youre booking the right hotel and going to the right one since there are literally about 4-5 APA hotels with similar names all in the same area. We arrived early and were told that our room wasnt ready. I know there are other reviews saying the staff was unhelpful but they were very helpful when I arrived and walked me through the check in process. Not sure if maybe they took the negative reviews to heart and improved their customer service? I booked a double room since it was for myself and my partner. We got a room on the 8th floor. I was already keeping my expectations low but was pleasantly surprised with the room. It was tiny (two people cannot walk around the room at the same time) but it was tidy and spacious enough considering my partner and I are not small. If youve ever been to the POD hotels in New York City, the rooms are similar in size and include a private bathroom which is big enough for my partner who is 58. That being said, I, personally, wouldnt stay here more than two nights if its more than just a solo traveler. It gets a little cramped especially if you need to spend any amount of time in the room. I also would not recommend that anymore than 2 people stay in one room. Three people would be packed into the room like sardines. I am unsure if they have bigger rooms available. The biggest issue I had was not understanding that the A/C is centrally controlled. That was my fault for not doing my research. I woke up boiling at 4am and couldnt figure out how to cool off the room. I thankfully ran across a review that mentioned windows that open and was able to crack open the window in my room. It helped a bunch but I will say that made the noise outside 1000 times louder (they have free earplugs at the front desk that I didnt grab initially and regretted that first night). If you are like me and cant sleep in a hot room at the very least in the cooler months you can crack open a window. I will say that there is a panel to at least turn off the A/C or heater for the unit which also helps. As for the noise, the hotel is centered right in Kabukicho and near the red light district so I was expecting some noise. However, its a little insane that even though I was on the 8th floor I could still hear legitimate drunk screaming from the street below at 3-5AM so thats something to keep in mind. Last few things, check out is at 10am which is early at least in my experience with other Japanese hotels that allow free check out until noon. If you do have the funds, you can pay for later check out (Its 1000 yen per hour after 10am). Overall, the hotel is a three star hotel and pretty much on par with other three star hotels Ive been to in other places. I gave it a four star review because it did exceed my admittedly very low expectations for this hotel (based on other reviews). I hope this review helps some other travelers to plan their hotel reservations accordingly.
