Sotetsu Grand Fresa Tokyo-Bay Ariake

We were able to stay at a great rate with IKYU benefits! The hotel was clean, and it felt nice that the housekeeping staff greeted us when we passed in the hallway. My companion was happy there was a convenience store in the building. It seems many guests stay for longer periods. I think they streamline what they can to keep prices low. Having a coin laundry was also very helpful.

I stayed here because I wanted to visit the Miraikan (National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation), and this property offered a room with a separate bath and toilet.Since I checked in around 10:00 PM, it was a little hard to find the way at first, but when I took a walk the next morning, I realized it’s very close to the station if you go through the plaza in front of it.Even though I arrived late, the staff kindly welcomed me and showed me around. However, I didn’t realize I had booked a Premium Room and got confused about which elevator to use, so it would have been helpful if someone had mentioned it. (I mistakenly went up to the upper floors on the regular elevator and another guest told me.)The room felt a bit dated, and the bathroom was slightly damp, but there was plenty of storage space, and I made good use of the refrigerator and microwave.I couldn’t add breakfast due to health reasons, but it looks appealing.I would consider staying here again when visiting this area. Thank you very much.
