Positive: 6 mins to subway station. Big and nice room. Quiet local neighbourhood. Lots of eatereis around. One girl can speak good English. One girl speaks Mandarin. My room can see skytree. Washer is a plus. everything is new. Some cooking utensils but they didnt look clean to me. Wifi was great.
Small problems:
1. NO TV. at this pricing I find it unreasonble.
2. I dunno what service they provde? No room cleaning and you have to take your rubbish to the reception by yourself. again not reasonable at this pricing. if it is cheap it is ok but it is not cheap.ah, they do keep your luggage after check out and they do wait for you for late check in until 10.30pm
3. Hotel sign is just in front of hotel, which is not on main road, so if you cannot find the correct turn, you cannot see the sign/hotel.
4. wooden floor so when people upstairs walk/pack, we could feel the shake and they woke us up around 6am in two mornings (we stayed 4 days)
Real problems: Machiya station is on the Chiyoda line only. the only tourist spot on this line is Shinjuku (30 mins away). It is common to walk 200-400 metres when you change lines in most subway stations. Sometimes you have to change twice. It was quire tiring and subway fare.is expensive when you change twice. Unless room size really matters to you or you want to hide away from someone, there are many other choices at this pricing in city centre.
