Had to stay a quick night and the location of being under a railway was intriguing. Also being in Akihabara was convenient.Nice little lobby/cafe.Rooms were clean and felt cozy.I was able to sleep fine personally and my friends did too.

Perfect location near to Akihabara station. Family of 4 slept comfortably on each bed. Sound of train didn't bother us since we were so tired from all day adventures. Bath/toilet room might be a little tight for big people but we didn't had an issue. Free amenities include mask and wash cloth, toothbrush etc .. were great. Front desk stuff can speak both English and Japanese thoroughly and very helpful. Key coffee shop within is also great. Very tasty hot coffee. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Will need to get used to the railway train. I thought there might've been a sound wall or "new tech" to shield some of train sounds, but it was a tough transition for my ears. Front desk service was helpful in looking up airport transportation options & luggage storage. Tight room for a family of 5 but we made it through.

A very practical and unique stay. Right in the heart of the anime district and a short 5 minute walk from Akihabara train station, this hotel has everything you need. Built under the railway, you get a true sense of the hussle and bustle of Tokyo life. We loved it

Great Stay. Highly Recommend.

We ended up arriving in Tokyo a night early so we booked here to stay for one night. Very comfortable and everyone was really nice at the front desk. The train is loud, but really wasn't a big deal. We enjoyed our night here.

Good location. Walking distance for train stations and good location on akihabara. Down side is the noice of the trains. Your literally under the rail system. Takes a few nights to adjust but in the end of the day after a long day of walking and exploring, the noice fades away

The location was amazing! I would definitely stay here again. Although our group of 4 was cramped in there, we didn’t stay for too long in the room and it was very convenient to reach the train station. My only complaint is that the sides by the beds are very very dusty. Other than that, no complaint.

Excellent but with a caveat

Staying in this hotel is a very unique and interesting experience. Excellent location. Amazing staff. Very clean, but this is not a traditional hotel - not in a bad sense though if you are open to non traditional ways of accommodation. A word of caution: if you have low tolerance of noises ( thinking about trains passing literally overhead) you might want to think twice before booking this one.

wonderful hotel!! would stay again anytime

my family of four traveled to Tokyo for the first time. This hotel is located perfectly next to Akihabara station. it is a two minute walk to the station literally allowing us to access all Tokyo had to offer. Our room was spacious enough for all four of us and the beds were extremely comfortable and clean. The café is exceptional the coffee the breakfast foods and the dinner foods were well beyond what you would expect. I would definitely enjoy the café more often had I known better. Is extremely safe all throughout Tokyo and I felt very comfortable in this hotel. The best part of this hotel was the staff they go above and beyond to help you especially being from the United States. They are extremely kind. I had lost my passport at Narita airport. The staff took it upon themselves to notify the airport locate my passport and then give me exact instructions on how to retrieve it. They gave me exact directions via public transit which is much cheaper than taxi service in Tokyo. I couldn’t have been more thankful and again they were absolutely wonderful in helping me. I would not hesitate to stay here at any point if I return to Tokyo. It’s also conveniently located next to electricity which is fun for a family. thank you so much for making our family trip so wonderful

This was a really cool hotel. We had 5 people with us and booked the room with double bunked beds and a single bed. The room was small but still comfy. I thought the sound from the subway would bother me but it really didn’t. Not saying that it wasn’t loud, just saying it wasn’t bothersome. They do offer ear plugs and other toiletry items for free. It’s in the anime district and many walkable places. The cafe was good as well and the staff was super friendly. I would definitely book again if I come back to Japan.

Quirky stay in great location.

This is a fantastic little hotel in the heart of a bustling neighborhood but on a side street that isnt too busy. We came here straight off the plane and jetlagged. I had lost my passport and the receptionist called the police and helped me find it. Their service was fantastic and it was such a unique space to be in You can hear the trains, they run right over regularly however they didn't bother us at all and I found them strangely soothing. There is a cafe bar linked to the hotel, really lovely, great spot for a morning coffee

I must say it was definitely a rare and unique experience to stay under the working JR railway. However, the room I stayed was far away from relaxing to stretch out your body after a long flight or busy days with sightseeing. I booked room type F but the room description was misleading. It said 2x single beds 1x bunk bed, but it was actually 2x bunk beds. Everything was so minimal. You won’t get those amenities available at other hotels of the same price range.
