Sotetsu Fresa Inn Tokyo-Toyocho

Overall the stay was ok, but the bed was too small for two people!! But the staff did provide additional blankets when requested.

I stayed here a lot of times because is cheap and very near the station. Happy with all their things, service and location. But this is the only time I’m staying with my friend, and I felt a little sad because is my only time I needed help for reservation but help desk couldn’t help us to call. I guess this is quite a Budget hotel and this gave the reason why. But overall, I would still stay here again if I’m on a Budget trip!

Was comfortable and clean.

Very good location as it is very near to Toyocho station. A plus point where the hotel located nearby a limousine bus service to and from Haneda Airport within 30 minutes. The only little improvement needed was the bed linen as we found stained on it for couple of days. Despite the room we booked was small but it is still fine for 2 person. Plenty of convenient store,market and restaurant located nearby this hotel.

Just came back from a week’s stay at the “Sotetsu Fresa Inn Tokyo-Toyocho”. I usually book Hotel East 21, but that one was not available but I wanted a hotel in the general area. Sotetsu has several advantages: a) generally lower in price b) literally a few steps away from the Toyocho Tokyo metro station c) located on a main street with more food and merchandise shops nearby d) has a coin laundry onsite. A microwave oven is also available on the 4th floor to heat up a quick grab and go meal from 7-Eleven or Family Mart (both nearby). Sotetsu is not a luxury hotel, but it is very nice, clean and practical. Like many Tokyo hotels, the room is smaller than what American travelers are accustomed to. A solo traveler should book at least the double-sized room. Even so, there are no closets, and no dressers. So the sofa, and the folding luggage rack will be needed for you to spread out and access your clothing. There are wall mounted coat hooks and hangers for your jackets. The small room would be much too claustrophobic. The bathroom is set 8” above the floor level. And the tub is very deep, and can be difficult to get in and out of. The bathroom is not vented, and gets warm and humid very quickly, so it’s best to turn on the room AC and leave the bathroom door open a few inches while bathing. It’s much more comfortable that way. I would definitely consider staying at Sotetsu again.
