The hotel is less than a 10 minute walk from Tokiwadai station, and there are many shops nearby. The staff was extremely kind and the rooms were quite spacious (our room had two beds). Would definitely stay here again if visiting Tokyo!!

We stayed here for a week. It's a bit out of the way so there are less crowds, but you only have to transfer once to central Tokyo from Ikebukuro, and it is a lot more affordable and we got to do so much more! Beds were super comfy, lots of room and had a lot of amenities available. Staff were really friendly as well and were always willing to help, even providing some advice in English when we needed it. Tokiwadai had a really cozy local vibe and had a lot of good restaurants, convenience stores, chemists, and the train station/bus, all within 5 minute walking distance.
The hotel also has vending machines and coin laundry on the first floor. If you are considering staying here, just go for it! I would love to stay here again the next time I visit Japan.

Staff was super kind and helpful! Everything is clean, rooms are nice and it's in a quiet and nice neighborhood in Tokyo. Lots off traditional restaurants and also a supermarket nearby.
Easy to reach from the subway. It's a little retro and the room smelled like cigarette smoke, however we got room spray from the staff, which made the smell go away.
All in all a nice and affordable hotel for Tokyo!

The area of Tokiwadai was close to downtown Tokyo (Ikebukuro station) just a few stops by train, but is quiet and peaceful. The hotel is just a few minutes walk to the station so it was very convenient. The room itself was really small and old, but clean enough considering the price. No room service meant I had to sort and throw away the garbage myself but it was not too bad. The staff were really friendly and helpful too. Overall pretty good!

The triple (bed room choice) is very spacious with living/dining space. For the 2nd night, we switched to two rooms as one more family member arrived in Tokyo, and I asked the rooms to be on the same floor though it had been the hotel manager’s gesture to give us bigger rooms which were on different floors. They understood my needs and accommodated the request despite difficulties. They also patiently explained the pros and cons of the options for our consideration. We love their location, too.
This is one of my favorite places in Japan. The price has gone up way too much though and the rooms are very outdated and have mold in them. You have to clean your own room take out the trash or pay extra to have it done. There is a laundromat on first floor but the drier doesn’t work well and you have to spend more. The showers is small for me and I’m 5’2. The area around the hotel is amazing; there are restaurants, grocery stores, 7/11, fast food, drug stores and the train station is 8 minute walk. Again this is my favorite hotel, but for the price now I wouldn’t do it again. There nicer places for the price.

The hotel was very welcoming they even had a map with near by store, food, parks ect haven’t seen a hotel do that yet. Was very nice! The area was amazing, grocery store, plenty of food places that are in walking distance, the train station is about four min walk, other tourist attractions are a short train ride away from place like Shibuya, Shinjuku ect. The only things that weren’t good was, the laundry cost way too much, you have to separate your own trash and throw it away, you have to pay for new bedding and towels, there is a room cleaning but you have to pay, the room has mold coming out of the walls, and I’m 5’ and the showers were small for me. There are dishes, hot plate, and a vacuum but when on vacation who wants to clean their own stuff.
Black mold on ceiling and corner wallpaper, brown stains under air conditioner. The water in the toilet would not stop and had to be fixed twice. The ceiling light in the main room comes on and off. I had a fever of 38 degrees and went to bed. Black molds on the ceiling fly when the air conditioner is turned on. The hotel staff was very friendly.

I've stayed here before and had a great time. The people are great and I love the location. If you're not a tiny person do not let them put you in room 203. There's a drop ceiling in the shower/bath stall that comes down to hit my shoulder, and I have to keep my hand on the side of that drop so I don't smack my head into it. It's scary to lean down for soap or shampoo or anything and try to stand up without knocking yourself out or gashing your head on the corner of that dropped ceiling. Meanwhile you get all tangled up in the shower curtain. They should turn this into a storage room, or restrict it to only very short people. It's also on the noisy highway side of the property.

Excellent property and service for the price! The property is about a 5 minute walk to the closest train station, which was a lifesaver after long days of travel and exploring - there were also many restaurants, both dine-in and takeout, along with grocery and convenience stores nearby (also 5 minutes or less of a walk). The staff was extremely friendly and helpful - when we checked in, the Front Desk staff member who checked us in explained property information in English, our primary language and gave us helpful flyers (also in English). Another front desk staff member helped me all the way through the process of sending my luggage onto our next hotel in Osaka (honestly a MUST if you’ll be traveling any other method than by car, even just in the same city) in time for it to be delivered on the day of our next check in. The room itself was spacious for myself and my brother, with separate living and bed rooms, and enough storage space for all of our baggage and purchases. The bathroom felt a slight bit cramped, but overall not too big of a bother - I think more countertop space would be helpful. Everything that we would’ve needed amenity-wise was provided, including food wares, which did come in handy for dinners in the room. It was an enjoyable stay and I will definitely be keeping this hotel in mind for my next visit!
