Convenient location, walk to JR station in 3 minutes, easy access to shopping and restaurants. Although the room is small but it has everything you need. Bed was comfortable. Staff were friendly, but you have to leave key at the lobby when you go out.

I have stayed at this hotel before and returned even though the price has gone through the roof for some strange reason. The water that guests used to receive daily from the maid was now locked in a machine for which guests were offered tokens and humiliated into going to reception to get water from a vending machine. The water bottles are now half the size! People in rooms on the top floor smoked constantly and no staff did a thing about it. When I placed my luggage with staff on the last day I was the only guest to be asked how long I intended to leave it there for. Smile hotel is pretty good but prices are rising due to greed brought on by rampant tourism so I feel this may be my last trip but never say never.

동경주유 거점이 되고

여러 리뷰가 있어서 안 좋으면 어떡하지 하고 갔는데 괜한 생각했네요. 들어가는 골목이 좀 뭐지 했지만 호텔 내부나 서비스는 훌륭했어요! 히터가 잘 드니까 조절 잘하셔야 하는데 이틀째는 젖은 거 걸어놓고 자니까 딱 좋았어요.(빨래 잘 말림.ㅋ) 청소하시는 분들이 엄청 열심히 하시는 것 같아요. 깨끗하니 잘 잤어요. 역에 가깝고 바로 옆 편의점이라 불편함이 없었어요!

It’s okay.

Before I start my review, I would like to say the staff was wonderful. My review is strictly only about the hotel and my stay itself, not about the staff. The WiFi was basically not even useable. It was always slow and disconnected itself multiple times. The desk was small with very little room to walk around for two people. I was not happy with the price I paid with the quality of the hotel.

Extremely close to the Sugamo JR station, which is why I picked this location. It’s an older business hotel but functional everything is fine. It was not the most comfortable bed but aside from that, pretty standard fare, including onsite coin laundry.

Good hotel for sure

Good hotel to stay in. Short walk from train station. Bathroom smelled a bit odd even when I let it air out. Otherwise, comfortable stay. Bed was a bit painful some mornings but didn’t stop me from sleeping. I recommend it for sure. Staff was very friendly. Family mart was literally 30 second walk. Can beat that
