The room amenities were surprisingly top-notch, providing a comfortable atmosphere to unwind after a long day of exploring Tokyo.

The language barrier made communication a bit challenging, particularly when trying to gather travel information through messages.

The place felt modern with a clean vibe. The bathroom impressed me—spacious with an excellent tub and strong water pressure. I loved that high-tech toilet seat, but the bedroom was cramped for our family of five. Suitcases barely fit, and opening the sofa bed made walking a challenge. The nearby Life Grocery was a great find, offering food and drinks at fair prices. We had a nice little balcony that overlooked the street, perfect for morning coffee. However, managing luggage was a hassle due to no on-site storage options. Check-in was efficient, just tablets, with no staff present at any time. It would’ve been great to see someone for assistance. This hotel works well for small groups but might not suit larger families due to space constraints.

The mattress felt comfortable enough to lull me into sleep after a long day of exploring. The nearby FamilyMart offered quick access to snacks and essentials.

Rooms felt a bit cramped for a group, particularly with extra furniture making movement challenging. The distance to the nearest metro station was more than expected, requiring a decent trek of about 10-15 minutes, which can be tough on tired feet, especially after a day out. Pillows didn’t deliver the same level of comfort as the mattress, leaving a bit to be desired.

Spacious bathroom with a high-tech toilet seat.

Helpful staff made it worthwhile

The room was clean and had everything we needed, including a fast response from the staff when we requested extra sheets. The nearby FamilyMart was a bonus for snacks!

The shower pressure was excellent for a refreshing experience.

Unfortunately, the rooms were uncomfortably small, leaving hardly any space to move around. The lack of staff presence made us feel isolated, especially when we needed assistance. It was frustrating to rely on a tablet for communication, and during an emergency, we had no way to get help since we couldn't find anyone to talk to and had no local phone to call.

We loved the clean vibe, but the room was cramped for our family of four.

It was just a balanced option for a little getaway in Tokyo with excellent value for money. The toilet amenities were top-notch, quite surprising for a budget stay. Check your travel details about nearby locker availability before arriving.

The location proved perfect for exploring, with easy access to metro stations and nearby restaurants, enhancing our experience. The self-check-in feature and high safety standards added to our peace of mind during the stay. Despite the compact room, it was tidy and cleverly designed, though managing luggage could be a challenge for families. For dining, there are traditional Greek products close by that added a nice twist to the local cuisine.

I greatly appreciated the serene location, which was a relaxing escape yet close to train stations. The room was clean and well-designed, with thoughtful amenities like complimentary umbrellas. The self check-in process was convenient, ensuring high security during my stay.

Luggage handling could improve.

wonderful stay at sakura cross hotel shinjuku east with impeccable service and clean rooms

The room was impeccably clean, with an unexpected balcony that provided breathtaking city views. The staff were highly accommodating and genuinely kind, making our stay truly memorable!

The location is secluded yet perfect for accessing attractions, and the decor is stylish with cozy furniture. Rooms are compact, but that’s typical for Japan, and managing luggage can be tricky. On the plus side, the shower pressure is excellent, which was a nice surprise.
