This property was amazing, about 5 seconds from Don Quijote. The location is great, the staff was great, and it was exactly what we were looking for in a short trip to Japan. Could not recommend more.

There’s a 7-Eleven and a Family Mart less than 5 mins away walking. Theres a 24/7 Don Quijote right across and there’s many Korean restaurants, cosmetic shops and souvenir shops nearby. Check-in was very easy and fast and so was check out. Rooms were a good size me and my brother could leave three luggage bags open and still have time to move around.

The room was decent but quite small for two people with big suitcases. There is no closet - only a few hooks on the wall. We stayed for three nights and had to live out of our suitcases - so it was a challenge to move around. But if you travel light - you will be fine. Great location. Right across the alley ftom Donki. Also only about a seven minute walk to several train stations. We also walked to the heart of Shinjuku in less than 15 minutes.
