10/10 Exceptional

This property was a great little find in Shinjuku. Hosts were amazing and the property was exactly as expected. Very clean, and AC was great in the heat of the summer!
Paula, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved our stay at this hotel! Great value for the price. The room was bigger than we expected of Tokyo; the staff were super helpful and friendly; check-in and checkout process was very smooth. Location is fantastic - we explored most of Shinjuku and Shibuya just walking from the hotel. The subway stop is 3 minutes away as well. Highly recommend this spot!
Ekaterina, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I will definitely book here again, the location is both convenient and just tucked away enough not to be noisy. Staff is very friendly.
Connor, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great value and excellent location. Very clean as well and easy check-in/-out. Only a bit small/narrow especially with the bed on the upper floor but that’s not uncommon in Tokyo. At times, the wi-fi is a bit patchy/unstable but nothing too bad. Highly recommend as an affordable option!

Great location for catching the trains and exploring shunjuku. Limited size as advertized. Amazingly accomodating staff they deserve more than five stars.
Mitchell, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was great!
Great location. Not in the thick fo things but about 20 min walk from the Shinjuku train stations and tons of food options.
Samantha, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

In general, the stay was good. The bathroom was a little small for me but no big problem. There is a humidity smell the bathroom, but air extraction and a door help.
Alvaro, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall would recommend.
Well located - 10-20min walk to most touristy things in Shinjuku, and 2 min walk to the subway for everything else. Tiny as everyone says. Open your suitcase & put it under the bed for some space. If you have carry on plus checked luggage, probably not the hotel for you. The bathroom is tight, but totally useable.
Kathryn, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

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)

Pretty Okay Stay
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.

깨긋하지만 너무 좁고 시끄럽고 다소 위험했던…
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…
