Skytree Apartment Self Check-in

Good apartment but the rest was disappointing

5.0

The apartment was good and decently clean. Location was great, close to the Skytree tower (and associated shopping centre - there was a beautiful christmas market and decorations). There are a 7 Eleven, a Lawson and a supermarket nearby. There are also some good value restaurants near one of the the stations. It was walking distance from couple of stations (15 mins). There's also bus stop no. 24 (Yokokawabashi) right next to the apartment. The lift was a bonus.

− Whilst the apartment itself was good, the furnishings were a let down. The chairs were all broken and wobbly (the seats were detached from the legs). The couch was so old it was missing cushioning so really hard to sit on. Even the beds seemed wobbly. The blind in one of the room was broken so forget about sleeping after daylight (we had to use a makeshift curtain with the spare sheets). The towels and sheets didn't seem clean and the slippers were dirty so we used our own. The crockery was not ceramic so probably not microwaveable (health risk concerns). The washing machine was broken (kept coming up with an error message). Our clothes were still wet after a few hours of trying to get it to work. In the end, we had to use the laundromat, which luckily was nearby (less than 5 mins walk). The host/owner was not responsive when I raised the issues with him/her.  Overall, the apartment could be good if better care was taken with the interior to make it more comfortable.

很好的地點，附近有兩間錢湯

房間插頭夠多

− 窗廉其中一間損壞，洗衣機無法脫水

It's fine I guess, but I probably won't stay here again

1) Great location: it is near the Tokyo Skytree and several other subway and train stations. It's really comfortable to get to most of the main attractions from this apartment. 2) Apartments are easy to find. 3) Cool advance toilet. 4) Clean white bed sheets. 5) The kitchen equipment (microwave, refrigerator, kettle, etc) was working fine.

− 1) The apartment was moderately dirty. Nothing you can't fix with some time and a rag (provided by the owner thankfully) - some on the floor, some near the heading of the bed. The air-conditioning was really dirty, but it hardly affected us, so it's alright. 2) The wardrobe in one of the rooms was closed with some ropes and a lock, but if you look inside you can see a pile of dirty tissues, so we could not use it. Furthermore there are really few places to put your things in the bedrooms, and without the wardrobe there are basically only a nightstand. 3) Nights were super cold (October), and one of 2 air-conditioning units was not giving hot air at all. 4) We could not make the washing machine work - it may be just us, not understanding how to make it, or it might be broken (that explains dirty tissues in the wardrobe), any way we were forced to use laundry (it's not far from the apartment). 5) The sofa in the living room was broken and there was only one chair there, and the chair was broken too. Notes (It's not a bad thing, just a note for those who will stay after us): It is hard to communicate with the owner if you don't know Japanese - it's better to write in Japanese right away. The window with Tokyo Skytree view is located in the bathroom, not the bedroom. If you are looking for a way to close blinds in the right bedroom, try blinds controls that are in the living room (that closes both living room's and the right bedroom's blinds for some reason).

Good place. We were very close to skytree making food and shopping very easy, plus the train station was there so it was very easy to get about Tokyo. Great price for our weeklong stay we very much liked it here

− We’re not used to sleeping on the floor so found it a bit uncomfortable at times but other than that this was a great place
