You get what you pay for with this type of hotel. The location is good, and from Ekoda station you can get to Ikebukuro quite easily. If you want your room to be cleaned the price is currently 3000 yen each time. For extras such as more towels you have to pay. Nearby are convenience stores, supermarkets and restaurants. During my stay, an earthquake happened and then someone set off the fire-alarm. The night staff were professional, but not many people had any idea what to do. The staff during the daytime are friendly and know some English. However, the staff finish at 6 pm so reach out before if you arrive late.

The room is a kind of outdated, but the room is clean and efficient. This property provides no cleaning or maid services if you stay consecutive nights. You have to take dirty towels to the front desk for exchanging to clean one. Also you have to take your trash to the trash room. The room has the electric vacuum which you can clean the floor anytime you need. The room rates were very reasonable and I was happy to stay this property.

Flexstay Inn Ekoda
This was my second reservation with FlexstayInn Ekoda. Despite the Corona virus pandemic, I wasn't disappointed. Service, professionalism and cleanliness were all excellent. Hand disinfectant was always available in the lobby. The on-site laundry room was clean and well lit. FlexstayInn Ekoda is located a five minute walk from Ekoda Ginza (江古田銀座 = shopping street). Lawson's and Family Mart convenience stores are nearby (two or three doors down and across the street respectively), but I would first recommend either the My Basket Ekoda Sakaecho (Aeon) a few doors down or the Maruman Store directly across from Ekoda Station's south exit. My Basket and Maruman offer better supermarket selections and volume pricing compared to the convenience stores. TLDR: buy green tea, Mitsuya cider, umeshu, shochu, prepared meals and anything else at My Basket or Maruman for less. Despite its size, Ekoda has many eating options including Indian and Japanese curry, ramen, bakeries, patissieries, izakayas, etc. All of them within five to 10 minutes walking distance from FlexstayInn Ekoda. Ekoda Station is within 15 minutes walking distance. From Ekoda Station, you are three stops to Ikebukuro Station which opens your rail options considerably. I can highly recommend FlexstayInn Ekoda. If you're looking for accomodation in an urban Tokyo setting without the overly dense atmosphere, Ekoda is a good choice.

For the price I can't complain. Room was small but not unexpected. There is some water damage on the wallpaper around the bath. However the staff were nice, and Ekoda turned out to be a lovely area with easy access to Tokyo city.

It was good to get a room and bathroom all to myself for such a good price in Tokyo (it was at par with some capsule hotels). Staff was very accommodating, room and everything I needed including a microwave. Cleanliness of my room prior to arriving could have used some improvement, though.

Very close to station. Located in a quiet neighbourhood with a lot of food choices available. If you have a late checkin, send a message to hotel and they will provide you with instructions. Their late checkin service was pretty quick. I called for check-in and there was someone available within 1 min. So fast!!

I loved staying here. The room was quite small, which made it difficult to navigate around with all our suitcases and my friend’s broken leg, but other than that it was wonderful. It was very clean. Ekoda is a lovely, quiet area, but really close to the station, and we could reach Shibuya in less than 20 minutes. Lots of shops and restaurants close by- there’s a 24hr Lawson right next door which was really handy!! In the room there was a microwave and a fridge, as well as other cooking utensils and a little sink - almost like a mini studio apartment. In the hotel there is also an area with vending machines and tables. Staff were really friendly at check in/out. I experienced my first earthquake staying in this hotel - felt very safe as the building is sturdy. Would definitely stay here again if in Tokyo.
