“I switched to &And Hostel Kuramae West Wellness Cafe & Bar for an extra night after a few nights elsewhere. The staff were incredibly helpful and the rooms were much larger than at the previous place. Everything was in excellent condition and very clean. The location is convenient, with a direct connection to Shinjuku and Asakusa within walking distance. A great experience with friendly staff and spacious rooms.”

“The staff, including Kenta, Hana, and another front-desk team member, were amazing. The technology was impressive – mobile phone keys and room controls. Our shared double room was surprisingly spacious. The lobby and food area was quiet and cosy. Great location, close to train stations and attractions like the Okachimachi market. It felt more like a hotel thanks to the amenities and helpful staff. I'd definitely stay again.”
