My stay at Apa Hotel Sugamo Ekimae had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, close to Sugamo station and various local eateries, making it easy to get around Tokyo. However, the rooms were quite small, which might be a concern for some. The rooftop onsen was a good bonus after long days of exploring, though the check-in process could be tricky for non-Japanese speakers.

The twin room was small but comfortable with a clean and tidy unit bath. Daily cleaning was efficient, and I appreciated the pleasant touch of fresh towels and bottled water. Just be prepared for limited space, especially if you have a lot of luggage.

The staff were friendly and accommodating. and while check-in was a bit confusing due to the digital system, they were helpful when I had questions. However, the strict check-in time at 3 PM felt a bit rigid.

I really liked the location; it was just a short walk from the Sugamo station, providing excellent access to the JR line and various attractions. The surrounding area had enough local restaurants and shopping options that I never felt the need to venture far.

While I didn't opt for breakfast at the hotel, there were plenty of dining options nearby. I found a Seiyu supermarket close by that had tasty Japanese food, perfect for a quick meal.

The rooftop onsen was a highlight for me—such a great way to unwind after a day of sightseeing. Although the lobby should have more seating for waiting guests, overall, the facilities met my needs.

I had a decent stay at Apa Hotel Sugamo Ekimae. The location was fantastic, just a couple of minutes from the Sugamo station, which made getting around Tokyo a breeze. However, the room was quite small, which is typical for budget hotels in Japan. I also experienced some issues with the air conditioning, which seemed centrally controlled and didn't suit my needs. Overall, it offered basic accommodations without breaking the bank, but there were definitely areas for improvement.
