GLOU Higashi Shinjuku

位置好好 一分鐘內有餐廳 幾分鐘內到車站 10分鐘內已到新宿 但環境較細 打開行李有困難 上下鋪不太方便 無位置好好坐係到休息 係床上又只能訓係到 員工友善

I will definitely book here again, the location is both convenient and just tucked away enough not to be noisy. Staff is very friendly.

Great location. Not in the thick fo things but about 20 min walk from the Shinjuku train stations and tons of food options.

This room is good enough for one person. But because I should use ladder to get bed, it’s quite scary when I wake up the morning. (It’s almost 2m height)

GLOU is located in the residential area away from Korean Town in Higashi Shinjuku. It is a 3-minute walk from exit B1 from the Fukutoshin Line (Tokyo Metro) and a 13-minute walk from the JR Shin-Okubo station. Check-in progress was straightforward, and our room was very spacious for a room in Tokyo. We stayed across from the main building, where reception and coin laundry are located. Some issue we had during our stay was the odor (the room smelled like feet-maybe because the room was carpeted and the ventilation was not amazing; I had to get room refresher spray day) and squeaky bed/bed frame. It would've been nice if there was a humidifier since the air does get air throughout the night. Overall a nice space where we can comfortably lay out all our luggage in the room; a good 12 min walk to Golden Gai/Kabuki-cho. 7-11/Lawson are within 2-3 blocks away. Located near busy streets with lots of Korean shops.

I had a serious injury that required me to have immediate surgery. So I cancelled my reservation and communicated this to the host on the same day of my injury, a week ahead of the intend stay. The host was then able to have those dates rebooked with other guests because of the one-week notice I gave. I asked for some form of refund and the host completely denied it, quoting “to be fair to other guests”. Most hosts would grant at least partial refund if the situation is of out of guest control and especially if they are able to have the dates rebooked. So it seems this particular host is just deliberately being inhuman with their cancellation policies. There was no room for negotiation and no sympathy conveyed in our communication. All they care about is that now they get to earn double for the dates if they deny my refund request. I have not stayed with the hotel so I cannot comment on the place. However the frustrating communication I had with the host left me the worst impression among all hotels I booked in Japan.

Abbiamo alloggiato presso questa struttura 1 notte,buona la posizione a 10 minuti a piedi da kabuki-cho,camera essenziale spaziosa bagno funzionale. Struttura abbastanza nuova,staff cortese. Buonissimo rapporto qualita/prezzo!

저렴한 비용을 이유로 선택한 숙소였기때문에 많은 기대는 안했었지만 사진이나 소개 내용에 복층에 사다리를 타고 올라가서 앉은 키가 조금 큰 사람은 머리가 부딪힐 것 같은 천장아래서 자야한다는 안내는 없었다. 사다리가 엄청 불편했고, 가장 힘들었던 부분은 방음이 안된다는점, 쿵쿵거리고 시끄러운 말소리 다들리고 바깥이랑 바로 연결된 창문이어서 바깥에서 전화하는 소리 다 들린다. 추천하자면 깨끗한 침구랑 실내, 청소해주는 서비스, 욕실의 물살은 좋다. 그냥 하루종일 돌아다니다 피곤해서 잠자는 숙소용으로는 가성비 깨끗함으로 괜찮다. 키가 크거나 몸집이 좀 있는 분들은 아마 복층침대는 사용 못할것 같다. 방의 컨디션을 잘 알아보고 예약하시길…

寝具の匂いが気になりました。
