OMO5 Tokyo Otsuka by Hoshino Resorts

Tokyo|1.67km from Koishikawa Annex, Museum of Architecture, University Museum, University of Tokyo
I ended up staying here after taking a hard look at my itinerary for a recent solo trip and wondering if it would be possible to forego the nicer hotels I had stayed at in Tokyo last November (and which, as part of Japan’s excitement about welcoming tourists again, have since quadrupled in price) and instead experience a cheap, clean, cute place for the more budget-minded traveler. For the most part, I was right. The OMO hotels (the higher the number, the nicer it is) are owned by Hoshino, so it is still stylish and trendy, and even when corners are cut, it’s done in a way that feels modern and cool. For instance, the hotel lobby - on the fourth floor abutting a Sizzler - is decked out in a theme that references the old cable cars in Otsuka, and there are manga, vintage city pop albums and souvenirs for sale everywhere you look. Check-in is mostly automated, though staff are there to help guide you through the process. On the way to the elevators you can grab some amenities like toothbrushes/toothpaste, combs, etc and rent pajamas. In these ways - and many others, mentioned below - the hotel feels a bit like a hostel, albeit a super cute one. The rooms themselves are as quirky as the lobby, with a weird but hyper-designed layout: storage is along the walls to maximize the tiny space, the sink takes up half the hallway, and the majority of the room is built out like a large bunk bed: there’s a large futon style sofa on the bottom and a narrow set of steep stairs up to the loft with two small futons for sleeping, with signs urging you to be careful not to hit your head. Indeed I spent my four days there walking around bent over and trying not to accidentally die when I had to gingerly climb downstairs to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. The layout may have contributed to the noise above me that I suffered throughout my stay. But the heavy stomping around felt explainable when I climbed up to my own bed and had to collapse down onto the bed from the stairs in the cramped space. There was unfortunately also a lot of yelling and running through the hallways but that’s likely attributable to just the kind of tourists looking for a cheap place to stay in Tokyo (of which I guess I was one). There doesn’t seem to be a cleaning crew. So if you need anything - from new towels to dumping the tiny trash can, which is likely to fill up in a couple days due to the absence of public trash cans in Tokyo - you’ll need to ask the front desk, who pull double duty here. In fact, when my heated Toto washlet wasn’t working, two separate front desk staff came up with tools to try and fix it. Unfortunately they never were able to. However they were very helpful when I accidentally forgot my room card and were able to provide a temporary one without needing to charge me. Breakfast is terrific, if simple. You get a choice of an American breakfast or a variety of hearty Japanese breakfasts like salmon ochazuke and you get a small onion soup and sal

Hotel Livemax Budget Korakuen
3.1/554 Reviews
Korakuen
The location of the hotel is Koishikawa rather than Korakuen. Because the company is Awaji CHO, I simply booked because it is the station 3 on the Marunouchi line. It was a sense of the position of Toyoko inn, but it was tight to climb the slope. The hotel is ribmax, so the front desk is simple and the rooms are strange. Although it is only sleeping, the TV size does not match the size of the room and the location is different. Convenience store lunch boxes are chinned in the range, air conditioned, and blanket used. It is a rule when using rib max.
