About me: 25F solo traveler in Japan for a 14 day vacation - Staff: Classic Japanese service, everyone was super nice, polite, and helpful. Most knew enough English to help with general hotel queries and they will help you with the self-check in machine - Free amenities: In the lobby before you get into the elevator there is free toothbrush, shower sponge, PJs, tea, coffee, etc that you can pick up for your room. - Space: The room is small but not tiny. If you have stayed in APA hotels the room is larger than their typical rooms. There was enough space for me to lay down my checked size luggage on the floor and organize with decent desk and bed space as well. I think it would be cramped with two people though. - Cleanliness: The room was very clean and comfortable. Trash and towel is changed every day and linens/vacuuming is performed every 3 days unless you request additional cleaning. They also replace your PJs each day and tidy up the bathroom. - Wifi: Free in-room wifi is available with decent speeds. I could stream Youtube and download videos on single device without buffering - Plugs!: Omg huge bonus is there are so many electrical outlets I was in heaven. Bed has plug and USB outlet on either side of the head board, two plugs on either side of desk, one more on top of the desk, outlet by bathroom door, and another in bathroom. Truly you will never run out of space to charge your devices. They also provide a complimentary multi-head USB charger for android and apple devices. - Lighting: You can control the lights all from the bed which is great for my lazy butt. However one odd thing is there's a soft light built into the headboard that you can dim but not completely turn off (or if you can I couldn't figure it out which is entirely possible) I like sleeping with a little night light so it didn't bother me, but if you like complete darkness maybe bring a blindfold. - Sound: The AC was pretty quiet (quieter than my home AC ToT) and other than some ambulances going by I was never bothered at all so either the soundproofing is pretty good or I just had excellent hotel neighbors. - In-room amenities: There are two mugs and an electric kettle for you to make tea or instant meals with. The minifridge comes empty (my preference) with decent space. I was able to keep 5 drinks + 2 take out food items in there comfortably. - Communal amenities: Microwave, ice machine, and vending machine is available and a coin laundry room can be unlocked upon request. The cost is between 300-600 yen depending on your wash cycle type. The machine is wash + drier in one and you do not need your own detergent/softener. - Bathroom: Your standard hand soap, body soap, shampoo and conditioner. The shampoo has a nice citrus scent. The bath tub is short but deep so you can take nice baths. There hot water is HOT so be careful when making adjustments. A hairdryer is provided - Location: Pretty excellent. Close to Jimbocho station (5min) with the Hanzomon line that takes you to Skytree or Shibuya. The Suidobashi station (10min) has the Chūō-Sōbu Line going to Akihabara and Shinjuku. So you're conveniently positioned to get to many tourist areas. There is a 7/11 across the street for all your conbini needs - breakfast: Can't comment, they have a western style buffet breakfast available for a surcharge but I always bought bread the night before and ate in my room **TLDR: Affordable, clean, friendly, with good amenities and location. I overall highly recommend this place if you're a solo traveler and I definitely plan on staying again when I finally pry enough PTO from my employer's hands to go visit Japan again.

Are you planing trip to Tokyo Japan ? Wanted share with you tips. If you are planing travel I highly recommend stay at VILLA FONTAINE “ KUDANSHITA ” I found extremely deal price and this hotel gives you everything you would need while in your stay at room . Staff are very very polite friendly even 4am morning . Right front door has seven eleven that you can get all kind of smack / drink break first on $1-5 also able to exchange ATM machine in it . I was staying at APA HOTEL but smoking smells and one I stay at was not convenient even this hotel has everywhere in Japan now . I cancel that and got this hotel has little more space on room not cramped like APA hotel regular room . And you can get in subway near by can go everywhere and here “ KUDANSHITA “ is near yasaka temple and ASAKUSA TEMPLE but not crazy busy . It’s Buisiness area yet extremely convenient. If you could book early enough you could get really lower price ( but make sure when you really day you arrive ) I really glad changed hotel to this VILLA FONTAINE- KUDANSHITA “ these is other one near by so make sure pick “ KUDANSHITA “ and if you worry about how you get around in Tokyo … I m pretty new about Tokyo but I took subway follow Google maps they tell me where to get into subway and which section of train is best for your destination “ just practice while in USA “ and download “ Suica” transit card app and download money in it you can put money in max$180 - that you can use at lots stores buy anything , drug stores , subway , bus , taxi. I did use them lost places except few restaurants said “ cash only “ only iPhone can download that not Samsung phone unfortunately. That case you can buy visiter sakura card at airport that expire in 28days . So subway is look like more than New York but conveniently English writing ✍️ and just follow sign and depend on google . Thank you to Google map by the way . Last time I posted lots picture one individual posted not interested my trip to share “ so I respect that this time I’ll put something useful if my group of Nextdoor.com planing to go Tokyo that I’m hoping helps . Lots place and restaurants price went up but still cheaper than hawaii . And even these Japanese or foreign worker knee down assist you no require or customs to tips. So still is reasonable. And they are very kind and appreciated. Let me know if I can answer something I know . If you can pay little more I’ll post one other hotel I’ll be staying at where is near this hotel that has traditional Japanese style rooms and etc . If you like I post it . And temperature now like 86-88 pretty hot . 🥵 may rain sometime soon but don’t need bring lots clothes. Most hotel has pajamas/ all amenities shampoo/ conditioners/ liquid soap / shaver / toothpaste and brush / green tea, coffee / body sponge / cotton / cue tips/ shower caps / cotton Villa Fontaine I stay at in downstairs you can pick yourself . I felt neat . Only can use what you need. So no waste .
