Great location – right in the center of Akihabara, perfect for anime lovers since there are so many good anime stores nearby. There were a few metro stations nearby so you could easily explore tokyo! The room was incredibly clean, with fresh towels and extra amenities provided daily (like instant matcha/coffee sticks, shower towels, etc.). Cleaning service came every 3–4 days. The Japanese toilet was a highlight – always pre-warmed and full of cool gadgets. They also provided very practical toiletries (comb, shower cap, wash towel, razor – their razors were amazing!! – toothbrushes, toothpaste, and even hair ties).

The room itself was generally small. You could only have one suitcase open at a time. We had four large suitcases – three of them fit perfectly under the bed. We used the vanity area to lay out our clothes. A tip: it’s better to bring suitcases that open from the top rather than ones that open from both sides. There wasn’t a separate toilet room, but honestly, it wasn’t a big issue

The location was completed in 2024 so the facilities were very clean and had many neat features. I like how everything has very clear English instructions and TV allows easy connection from my phone. Location is also unbeatable. 4 min from the nearest subway station and also connects to Ueno for easy access to Narita Airport. Staff was super helpful with my request to receive packages I had sent and also sent my luggage to the airport. The bed also has plenty of underside space to put my luggage which helps make the small room feel bigger. The bedside console has control of all the lights in the room which are brightly lit and the AC is responsive and fast acting. It's not too hot now in May but it shouldn't be a problem during the summer months.

APA hotels are ubiquitous in Japan. This one is right in the middle of the Electric Town quarter of noisy Akihabara among the electrical shops and the maid cafes. The maids are everywhere -- if you find them offensive, don't stay here. They won't hassle you. Very handy for the Ginza line as well as the Yamanote circle line which stops at Akihabara station. Loads of places to eat, and a big pachinko/slots palace right across the road. Rooms small but modern, service helpful, comfortable beds. For an interesting angle on Japanese history, the thoughts of the founder and chairman of APA hotels are provided in a magazine rack in every room.

Location was amazing! Facilities available to you was so convenient. Laundry, vending machine, ice machine etc Ability to chrome cast in room was added bonus for us ! Small rooms as we expected BUT the ability to have both our large suitcases unfolded and slipped easily under the bed was so easy !!!

The knocking at 9am by cleaners asking what time we were leaving so he could clean. Knocked on the door continously for 10 minutes even after asking him to wait 1 moment as we were in the middle of getting ready. But continously knocked louder and harder...

The location and price for this location is great. Also, the he beds are elevated. This is very helpful, as your luggage can be stored under your bed. I'll be staying there again soon. I only happened to stop and write this review, because I was on my way to reserve this hotel again. One additional note, there is a policy that house keeping will come once every 3 days, however for me one of those days happened to land on New Years Day. I was able to talk with the front desk and they had no issue delaying the cleaning, as I had plans to be out late on New Years. So, just be aware that this is an option for anyone else who has house keeping land on an unfortunate day.

This isnt really meant to be negative towards the hotel, just a forewarning for other travelers: While house keeping can be delayed with the front desk, there is no Do Not Disturb signs. If you do not tell the front desk, the house keeping staff will try to come into your room, if you door is locked, they may try again - or you will get a call from the front desk. Also, when house keeping starts at around 9am, depending on what room your in things in the hallways may be a bit noisy, so if your a light sleeper trying to get some extra rest - bring some earplugs.

I liked the cleanliness of the room and how minimalistic it feels. It provided all the amenities I needed and room service cleaning was very often which I appreciated because my trash cans got full easily. The air conditioning in the room felt just right and I liked being able to adjust it whenever I needed to.

The restroom space felt a little cramped, especially because the toilet was really close to a wall so I had to sit an angle occasionally because I have longer legs. Their washing machine works great but the dryer machine felt a little weak to me even after using the 1 hour option so I opted to hang dry the rest of my wet clothes.

Close to stores, restaurants, combinis, and train station. Staff are very accommodating and polite. Utilities are good. Instruction and hotel information are given and can easily be recognized. Breakfast is decent typical Japanese food. You get daily replacement for your towels and toiletries. All in all, this is a great budget hotel!

I have no issues but just want to state it here as an FYI to other people. I know that hotel rooms is typically small in Tokyo but some rooms in this hotel can be really small. My family and I booked 4 rooms and half of us got 2 very small rooms and the other half got a decent sized one though we all made the same booking.

The location was great

We recently stayed at this hotel and overall had a good experience. The location was fantastic—very convenient and close to everything we needed. The staff was incredibly sweet and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The room was clean overall, but unfortunately, we did find a cockroach during our stay. We reported it to the front desk, and they immediately changed our room, which we really appreciated. Their quick response made us feel taken care of. Despite that hiccup, everything else went smoothly. We would consider staying here again thanks to the excellent service and great location.

very little interaction with people. after check in i only spoke to staff for help, otherwise everything was already done for you, beds made, room cleaned, new towels etc. didnt need to speak to anyone to check out either. loved that it was on the main road, but i wasnt facing it, so it was quiet inside. family mart over the road, loads of food options near by, close enough to the train. the front and back entrance make it easier to avoid people, and luggage.

bathroom wasnt spotless when we arrived, and under the bed wasnt hoovered on arrival either. but the bed was fresh as was all the towels etc. the next day it was cleaned spotlessly also, not sure if i lost my headphones on the plane, or if they were lifted from the room, but theyre gone now, and i didnt interact with staff to know if it could have been a member or not.

Excellent location within walking distance of both the Suehirocho station and Akihabara station. These two stations cover most train routes to popular tourist destinations in Tokyo. While the rooms are small, they are designed decently well, with space under the bed to put 2 large luggage plus carryon/bags. There were power outlets on both sides of the bed with one side having USB ports and controls for the lights and air conditioning. The washroom is small but has all you need including a tap that says it provides drinkable water. The shower head top mount might be a bit low for tall people though. The television includes a basic selection of VODs free of charge. It also shows the status of the washer/dryer. For breakfast, it was reasonably priced according to the quality, selection and convenience. We only tried it once since there are a lot of food options in the area such as the Excelsior Caffé next door. The rear entrance was also useful for exploring some of the side street shops, vending machines, and the closer FamilyMart next door, and the Lawsons down the street. On the 2nd floor there's a vending machine and a microwave. Checkout was pretty straightforward with the machine that accepts your room card. Staff are also present around checkout time to help. You can also leave your bags at the front desk for a few hours if checkout is too early, it's free of charge but you need to book it online ahead of time. There was usually one front desk staff that could speak good english, but not all can, so be patient and make use of translate apps or google translate.

For laundry, the dryers take much longer than the washing machines, so laundry gets backlogged quite badly. There are also only 2 pairs of washer/dryer which are occupied very often. A combo washer-dryer would be better and would reduce conflict between guests that are waiting. Not much of a view but that's to be expected.
