Tabist Hotel Aurora Ikebukuro

Great value for a 2-night stay in Ikebukuro. However, I underestimated the underground passageways. It was nice that it’s a 1-minute walk from Exit C1, and there are places like MOS Burger and Matsuya nearby, so finding food wasn’t a problem. But it’s quite a walk to the JR lines and Tokyo Metro lol. You keep the key with you until checkout, so you don’t have to leave it at the front desk each time, and being able to come and go freely 24 hours is convenient.

This was my second stay. Most of the Room is taken up by the bed. If you only need a Hotel for a shower and sleep, it’s not an issue—in fact, for this price, I would recommend it.
