Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Busy, noisy area — Kabukicho is lively day and night, which can be overwhelming if you prefer a quiet stay. Street noise may be an issue.
- Modest value score — While the price is low, guest ratings for value are the weakest category, so weigh the basics against the cost.
- Check-in starts at 17:00 — If you arrive earlier, you'll need to wait or store luggage, as rooms aren't available until 5 pm.
- No pets allowed — Travelling with a pet? This hotel doesn't permit them.
