We stayed at another APA hotel chain in Tokyo around the same price but they had much better facilities and bigger rooms. We struggled with luggage storage in this one and we only had two standard bags. Okay price point, perhaps better for solo travelers or business trips.

Good amenities, laundry was a bit expensive (ended up paying 800 for one load to wash and dry). Room size is standard for Japanese hotels and the water pressure in the shower was great. Breakfast had good options and was accommodating to dietary restrictions.
