Hotel Mystays Gotanda Station

Great location, lots of shops within the area.

The room was smaller than in the pictures.

This is our 2nd stay at this hotel. You cannot beat the location of this property which is across the street from the Yamanote JR Gotanda Station. You will appreciate the close proximity if you have luggage. They will hold your luggage if you come in before check in time. Take the west exit, walk across the intersection, and the hotel is right there! Look for the sign n walk through the huge solid double doors. The room is small like typical Tokyo hotels but it is clean and quiet. There are FREE washers/dryers on the 5th n 10th floor along with a microwave. A midsize American/Japanese buffet breakfast is available for 1200 yen and it is well worth it. There is a convenience store next door and also across the street. Warning: We went to a bar on the next street. We paid 2400 yen for 2 small dishes (not meals) and the mandatory drink for the both of us (1 beer n 1 OJ)! Everyone smoked so upon our return, we had to shower, wash our hair, and was grateful for the washer/dryer available. It’s part of the Japanese culture but just not our thing. Also, the staff is friendly and helpful. English is spoken.

The WiFi could have been better but worked fine in the lobby. Not a big set back for me.
