The Sorapia Tokyo

Clean, bright, quiet. We stayed here three nights and then were supposed to go elsewhere but we decided against it and booked another three night in this same building since the area is grea and the building was so well maintained.

The view was gorgeous. It was SO FAR from any station (there were two) and to get there was a series of twists and turns, so much that i STILL had to use google maps to find my way after a week! The location was a few minutes from a 7-11, so that was nice to have. It was a nice secure apartment, with a washer (no dryer, but there is a balcony with clothes rack), microwave, stove, sink, a large full bed and a pull out twin bed. I had 2 children, so one actually opted to sleep "in the closet" on a futon mat they had. It was a tight squeeze, but it was definitely liveable. The biggest issue we had was the garbage. Our garbage filled up and we had no garbage bags or anything we could do with it (we are told not to take it out). We didn't contact them about it (it felt weird sending a message to ask them to take our garbage out), so I guess that's on us. Pro: clean, had a great view, all the amenties we needed. Con: SO FAR from the station. Not enough places to put garbage. REALLY FAR from the station. The hotel was far off the map from places we ended up wanting to see, so it took a long train ride to get to sightseeing places.

It ia an amazing cozy place to stay. Very quiet and friendly neighborhood.

+👍: Very good location, in a quiet residential area. Food shops and restaurants available in the area by less than 5min walking. 20min walk to Skytree/Oshiage, max 30min to Asakusa. The apartment is clean, and offer a great view on Sumida city. - 👎: Small for 3 persons. Cooking facilities are available, but there is no real space to have the meal, only one small table with one seat.
