Cari Kondo di Tokyo

"For me the location is the biggest advantage of this apartment. I’ve stayed in this area several times, and this was by far the best-located place of them all. It’s close to the Yamanote Line, metro stations, parks, convenience stores, and everything else you might need. The balcony on the top floor was another standout feature, especially with its view of the top of Tokyo Tower, which was beautiful both during the day and at night. The apartment itself was also comfortable. The room was spacious enoug, the washing machine was very useful, and having a kitchen was a nice extra. Personally, with how cheap and good food is in Tokyo, I don’t see much reason to cook, but for anyone who wants that option, it’s there. The main downside was the service and amenities policy. Having to either clean the apartment yourself or pay a fairly high cleaning fee already felt inconvenient, but having to pay extra to change the towels made it feel even more unreasonable. Even though the towel fee is not very high, it still comes across as poor service. We also had to take the trash out ourselves, which added to the feeling that too much was expected from guests. Overall, this is a nice and well-located apartment, but the approach to cleaning and amenities takes away from the experience. Because of that, I don’t think I would choose it again over a hotel with daily housekeeping."

"Great place to stay for the price. Got a personal bedroom, the indoor shoes were quite fancy, everything was clean too. 10-15 min walk to Ikebukuro station though."

"We booked an appartment for 4 people and our family had just a good time there. The personnel are native English speakers (unlike us, haha). The appartment is well equipped. You can cook if you want (we don't). There is a free coffee machine at the receition zone. You can also get a coffee latte and a sandwich at the 7 Eleven store next door which works 24 hours a day. The nearest subway station is 3 minutes away. But most of our Tokyo trips required 15 minutes walking to another station (or over-complicated tranfers) - that is why I graded location as 3 of 5. In total I can recommend this place."

"My wife and I had an amazing 7D6N stay in Tokyo, including 2 short day trips to nearby cities. The apartment was extremely functional and equipped with all the necessary amenities, making our stay very comfortable and feel just like home. The property was in brand-new condition, it felt as though we were the first guests to stay there. The mattress and pillows were exceptionally comfortable, which made for a great night's sleep after long days of exploring. The location is situated between several train stations, with a walking distance of 12–15 mins. While it is not right next to any station, we found it manageable. Despite being located near the Yamanote Line railway tracks, we could barely hear any train noise thanks to the excellent soundproofing of the apartment. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely consider staying here again on our next visit to Tokyo."

"The view of the hotel is very good, overlooking the Tokyo Tower with a balcony in all rooms. There is a metro station nearby, though if you are carrying your luggage, you will have to walk a slightly long way inside the station from the train up to the station exit (and then to the hotel), so remember to look for the exit equipped with escalator/lift. There is a cafe on the ground floor of the hotel, also overlooking the Tokyo Tower. The food and drinks were ok but slightly expensive, the desserts were good though."

"10 minutes walk by Shuttle stop at Tobu Hotel Levant Tokyo (Kinshi-cho) from Haneda airport. It was a bit hard to find the place maybe because of construction around there (?) Situated in quiet neighborhood and convenient store near by (we sent our suitcases to next place by Takkyubin at the convenient store- what a great thing Japan has!). I liked only one unit each story. Well equipped and clean place as a cleanness is my priority. Extra 2 small mirrors were nice :) They have a washer which is plus. Looking Skytree for steps out was nice especially at night. We supposed to meet our son on same day who came from different airport. My husband and I got there one day late because our airplane had some computer problems. Our son who speaks/read only English got at place alone for the first day. Our son called me that there is no hot water when he wanted to take shower. He couldn't call them to ask it because we only have data plan (not calling plan). Luckily, he has a mother from Japan (me), so I was able to tell him how to turn heater on by using WhatsUp video call (my son was worried to read a review said ”there is no hot water”). No worries not having hot water - YOU JUST TURN SWITCH ON! - I think the switch was near kitchen (They said cleaning people turned water heater off for safety.) Having English explanation/labels preferably with pictures would be much helpful since most of people speak/read English. Overall, I liked this place!"

"The location is excellent, and the Asakusabashi station is nearer than what Google Maps showed, so it is great! It is also near (just less than 30m) 2 convenience stores and a decent grocery store . All amenities are provided. All in all it is a great base to travel anywhere in Tokyo."

"Has two beds and a bunk bed. Perfect for two adults and two kids. Big washer/dryer. It’s like this place was designed for families. People who comment this place is small have no idea what they are talking about. This is Japan where spaces are small. For the money you are paying it is a very generous space. Best perk is that they have a balmuda toaster which makes the BEST toast. Staff were helpful and friendly. If I come again, I will most likely stay at a MONday apartment again!"
