HOTEL MYSTAYS Kameido

Well positioned, close to a mall and a 6-10 min walk to the Kameido JR and Tobu subway station, and pretty close to the Gonohashi bus stop, making it well connected. There's a Lawson right in front of the hotel and there are vending machines on the 2F, with tables and chairs. The rooms are a bit outdated but, in my experience, clean and tidy, with every amenity and the possibility to rent additional items from the lobby. There is also a coin laundry, but I didn't use it. For long stays, you can freely ask for new linens and towels, but you will have to do your own housekeeping. Disposing of the trash is simple enough, reception gives you an informative pamphlet upon check-in, and the trash cans are right behind the hotel. The staff is kind and helpful, if there are language barriers they will use pocket translators - I asked to book a taxi and everything went smoothly! The room is a bit of a tight fit, but if you keep your luggage tidy, you will manage - I had a very large suitcase and I kept it open against the wall, taking stuff out as needed and had no issues! The room was a smoking one, but there was only a very faint smell on the first couple of days which then went away. The room has an Aircon unit for warm and cool air and dehumidifier, and I saw a machine to remove pollen in the air (which could be useful to some).

There was everything what I needed - bed, some space for my belongings, table. Very compact room, but I guess it's common for Japan. Also there was a laundry on first floor (300 yen for 30 minutes cycle), luggage delivery, nice breakfast (japanese and european). There was no clinging in the room, but I'm ok with it and it was clear from description. But if you want to change towel - you always can take a new one on the first floor

The hotel was near all the amenities, and there was a slight problem with the room that we were staying in, but they moved us to another room so it was really nice of the staff to moved us to another room, Nakamura was really helpful in providing us with another room, the staff are all friendly and there’s really no problem in asking them for clean towels and other things, I would definitely rent a room whenever I go back to Japan.

The hotel is located in Kameido, which is a lovely neighborhood, near all the central areas but away from the hustle of Tokyo city center. The nearest train station is about 5 minutes away by walking and getting around Tokyo was seamless. There is a 24-hour convenience store right across the street and lots of small food places nearby. The room itself was a little small, and so was the bed, but that is something common in Tokyo so it was not a big deal. Like all Japanese hotels, the room offers all sorts of amenities one needs for their stay such as bath products, slippers, toothbrush & toothpaste, etc. Although we knew about the lack of free cleaning service from the start, an occasional complimentary change of fresh towels for long stays (more than 7 days) would have been appreciated. However it didn't affect our overall experience. The staff were very helpful and they even stored our luggage for free on our check-out day so we could take a last walk in Tokyo. All in all, our stay was very pleasant and I would definitely recommend this hotel as a budget-friendly option.

The location was perfect. 5 minutes walk from JR Kameido Station. 3 minutes walk from Kameido Clock shopping mall. Convenience stores and grocery shops also within a few minutes walk. The hotel seems to be in the middle of a quiet residential area. No boisterous tourists around. The hotel itself is perfect for solo travelers who like privacy. The hotel does not service the rooms regularly so you can stay in all day in your room if you like. Trash disposal is no hassle because the dumpsters are right around the corner. I really loved my stay in this hotel.
