The picture shows some relatively modern rooms and bathroom. We were staying at the ground level and let me say the rooms are very old and the wallapaper is yellowed and peeling. Headbord and nightstand with a thick coat of dust. I woke up to a cockroach walking on the wall too. Honestly save yourself some time and book something else. We were glad it was only for one night.

It's listed as 20 minutes from Haneda airport by car. It's more like 1h. Don't take a taxi. Pictures of the hotel is not representative of the reality - much older structure, dirtier and smelly. Walls are so thin, door has gap. We can hear everything including the trains, trucks and anyone passing around. It's more on a capsule hotel facility, but very old and dirty. I don't recommand even for 1 night.

The location is a short 1 min walk away from the train station and having it be close made our trasit with luggage very straight-forward. The area is quiet and away from the urban areas as well. It is exactly what we paid for. It's not the most impressive but for its price point I'd say it did its job of meeting our accomodation requirements for our Japan trip.

The property is close to transportation and food places. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Kang-san make a delicious gim bap. However the floor in the room needs to be cleaned better especially under the beds and table. Also the shower floor needs to be scrubbed.

The room was clean and spacious, great for a group of six people. The hotel is near the Nakai station so it wasn’t too difficult to travel. The hotel is also near foodchains and some restaurant, and convenience stores, there’s also a nearby ATM and vendos.

The property is simple but it fits the needs you have. It is clean as far as staff is concerned. It is a hostel so you can't account for what other guests do. The convenience is worth the price.
