The room and the staff were great overall. My only complaints was that the hotel has central air, so I wasn’t able to have the air on unless I wanted heat and I normally like my room on the cooler side. The location is great, though it can be a little loud because of being so close to the train station. Overall I had a good experience and would book with them again in the future.

The hotel was a very convenient walk from Ikebukuro Station and the staff was very friendly! The room was small but it was all the space I needed and the bathroom was fairly large and quite nice. I’d recommend staying here as a solo traveler in Tokyo!

The b is conveniently located in Ikebukuro: it's less than a 5 minute walk to the train station. Room was pretty clean, and generally for a one bed room, it was one of the more spacious ones I've stayed in. The desk area in my room was a bit banged up/showing signs of wear and tear, but was still functional. I also had breakfast during my stay. It was buffet style. It had a decent selection, including bread, meatballs, spaghetti, fruits, miso soup, and salad. Drink selection included coffee and many different types of teas, along with juice. I thought it was decent: won't wow you but definitely fills you up for the morning! Staff were also very friendly, and they also do complimentary luggage storage for guests during checkout day for same-day pickup, which was very convenient while I explored the area before leaving. Overall, it was a decent stay. Would consider again if I'm in the area.
