Best Rate Guarantee
For the same dates, the same room, the same number of guests and the same cancellation terms, the rate on our official site is not higher than on other booking sites. This applies from one night. Limited-time sales and non-refundable rates on booking sites are not included in the comparison.
RATES
On our official site, the rate you see is the total you pay.
Rates on this site are shown per room, not per person. For a direct booking on our official site, nothing such as accommodation tax or a cleaning charge is added on top of the rate shown on the booking page. For a direct booking on our official site, the amount shown on the official booking page is the total you pay when you book. If you ask us for extra cleaning or extra supplies during your stay, that is a separate request which is not part of the total you paid when you booked, and we may charge for it. A booking made through another travel site follows that site's own display and terms. One 1R room sleeps up to 3 guests and is booked at a single rate, so two guests split that rate between them and three guests split it three ways.

- Takadanobaba Station — JR Yamanote Line, about 5 min → Shinjuku Station

STAY LENGTH
How long are you staying?
- A few nights
- The 20% off room rate is applied automatically to stays of 3 nights or more, so a three-night stay is already at the discounted rate. Booking a fourth or fifth night keeps the same 20% off - the discount does not grow with the number of nights. The nightly rate itself changes by date, so check the total for your dates.
- A week or so
- Cook in the room and do laundry without a laundromat run. An Ozeki supermarket is about 3 minutes away on foot, a Tomod's drugstore about 2 and a Seven-Eleven about 4.
- Longer than that
- There is no set maximum length of stay. A quiet residential street five minutes from Takadanobaba Station, about five minutes by train to Shinjuku, so a long stay does not mean living far out.
A kitchen and a washing machine are in the room from the first night.
KITCHEN & LAUNDRY
A room you can live in, not just sleep in.
All 6 rooms have a kitchen and a washing machine. You can shop at the supermarket 3 minutes away, cook in the room, and wash your clothes without going out to a coin laundry — which is why guests stay several nights rather than one.
- Kitchen — IH cooktop, fridge, microwave and electric kettle (1R rooms also have a rice cooker; 2R rooms do not)
- Washing machine in every room, so you don't need a change of clothes for every night
- Seven-Eleven about 4 minutes away on foot, an Ozeki supermarket about 3 and a Tomod's drugstore about 2
- Free Wi-Fi, all rooms non-smoking, self check-in from 15:00 (late arrivals can let themselves in)
Who the 1R suits
- Two people, one roomA double bed in a 22 m² room with a loft. Two guests share one rate, and the kitchen and washing machine mean you are not eating out or hunting for a laundromat every day.
- A parent and a child, or three togetherThe 1R sleeps up to 3 on a double bed plus a semi-double mattress in the loft. Three guests stay on one booking with one key; for four or more, the 2R type sleeps up to 7.
- One person staying a whileA kitchen, a washing machine and a desk in the room, on a quiet residential street. Self check-in means you can arrive late without waiting at a front desk.
AREA
Everything you need for a longer stay is a few minutes' walk away.
The hotel is on a quiet residential street in Takadanobaba, Shinjuku City, just off the busy area near the station. A supermarket, a drugstore and a 24-hour convenience store are all within a few minutes on foot, so you can restock food and daily items during your stay. Shinjuku and Ikebukuro are each about 5 minutes away on the Yamanote Line, so you are close to the centre but it is calm at night.

- 3 min
- walk to Tomod's drugstore
- 2 min
- walk to a 24-hour convenience store
- 4 min

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in: from 15:00. Check-out: by 10:00.
Is smoking allowed?
All rooms are non-smoking. The area around the building is also non-smoking.
What is the difference between a 1R and a 2R room?
"1R" is our studio type and "2R" is our two-bedroom type. A 1R (4 of them, about 22 sqm, up to 3 guests) is a studio with a loft - a low-ceilinged sleeping platform reached by a ladder, where you cannot stand up. It has a double bed and a semi-double mattress in the loft, a combined bath-shower-toilet unit with a bathtub, and a rice cooker. A 2R (2 of them, about 40 sqm, up to 7 guests) has two bedrooms, a living room and a loft, all booked together as one unit: two queen beds, a sofa bed and a semi-double mattress in the loft, a separate shower room with no bathtub, and a toilet in its own room with a heated seat and bidet. The 2R has no rice cooker. The bedding layout varies slightly by room, and in the 2R so does the number of lofts and loft mattresses (one or two semi-double mattresses). Rooms are assigned on the day of check-in, so we cannot promise a specific room or bedding layout in advance.
Is there a bathtub?
The 1R has a bathtub, in a combined unit where the bath, shower and toilet share one room. The 2R has a separate shower room with no bathtub, and its toilet is in a different room.
Is it right next to Shinjuku Station?
No. The address is 3-12-24 Takadanobaba, Shinjuku City, Tokyo, which is a separate area from Shinjuku Station. The nearest station is Takadanobaba, a 5-minute walk away, and Shinjuku Station is about 5 minutes from there on the JR Yamanote Line.
Can three of us stay in a 1R?
Yes. The 1R sleeps up to 3 - a double bed plus a semi-double mattress in the loft, in a 22 m² room. If your party is four or more, the 2R type sleeps up to 7 in two bedrooms and a loft. Bedding layout may vary slightly by room.
Is it really quiet if it's near Shinjuku?
Yes. It's a 5-minute walk from Takadanobaba Station on a quiet residential street, about 5 minutes by train from Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.
Is this a licensed hotel?
Yes. It is licensed as a hotel under Japan's Hotel Business Act (licence 7新保衛環第119号, issued by the Shinjuku City public health centre) and operated by Topshot Co., Ltd. There is no front desk: you enter with self check-in.
Are there extra fees on top of the rate I see?
For a direct booking on our official site, no. Rates are shown per room, not per person. For a direct booking on our official site, nothing such as accommodation tax or a cleaning charge is added on top of the rate shown on the booking page. For a direct booking on our official site, the amount shown on the official booking page is the total you pay when you book. If you ask us for extra cleaning or extra supplies during your stay, that is a separate request which is not part of the total you paid when you booked, and we may charge for it. A booking made through another travel site follows that site's own display and terms, so please check the total on that site when you book.
What is the cancellation policy?
The cancellation policy differs by plan. Room Only plan (standard rate): cancellation from 6 days before arrival onward, on the day of arrival, or a no-show — 100% of the accommodation fee; cancellation made earlier is free of charge. The 20% off room rate plan (3 nights or more): cancellation from 30 days before arrival onward, on the day of arrival, or a no-show — 100% of the accommodation fee; cancellation made earlier is free of charge. Day counts treat the arrival date itself as "day 0" (the day before arrival is "day 1"), based on Japan Standard Time. Where no cancellation fee applies, the amount prepaid online is refunded to the credit card used for the booking. The policy shown on the booking page at the time you book is the one that applies to your booking.
How does self check-in work?
After booking you'll receive check-in instructions in advance, and an entry code on the day of arrival.
