The Stay Hotel New Star Ikebukuro is located conveniently near Ikebukuro station (5-10 minute walk, depending where you exit). I guess this is what you call the typical business hotel for business travelers. It has most if not all the essential you'll need for the stay. But is not a fancy like some of the big name hotel, but is not bad. The place is old, but they keep it fairly clean (to Japan standard), compare to some motel and hotel. Don't expect a nice view or nice lighting, but is a decent place to stay if you don't want to share rooms. The Miscellaneous The hotel is located in a good location with different various shop, restaurants, and other amenities nearby (I mean it is in Tokyo). They are conveniently walkable. Sunshine City is also a walkable distance as well. The staff seem sincere and try to explain the process to travelers. They mention you should leave the key with them before you leave to explore so they can clean the room when you are out. All in the all, it is not an upscale place, but is a decent place if you are looking for something not super expensive to stay the night.

The building and rooms are clearly old, but notably well taken care of. The staff were always very friendly and helpful. There’s at least 4 convenience stores within a couple minutes walking distance and the nearest entrance to the train station is also only a couple minute walk away. They advertise laundry services, but I learned that the laundry was offsite and had to be paid for, which was a bit unfortunate

2/10 Poor

I booked it, arrived and inspected before checking in. Not what I expected. Got bad attitude from front desk clerk as an introduction, because given the look of the lobby I requested to see the room before committing fully to stay. Even though he reluctantly gave permission to inspect the room. I opted not to stay. Property needs a total remodel upgrade. Looks dated and wasn’t clean, but most importantly staff needs to learn the meaning of hospitality. Location is great but too bad they sucked!

4/10 Fair

I like that is close to the station. I don't like the sudden swap of keys when they find out I was alone and that the room smells awful because of smoking and that the smoking made the room very brown. Tye picture is different then what the room actually look like.

8/10 Very good

Not too bad
The hotel was easily accessible from the JR Ikebukuro station. Surrounds was ok, convenience stores around! The room was a bit small but liveable. The condition of the room was not the best… moldy walls and a bit warm unless you open the window. Otherwise it was pretty ok. Good service and daily housekeeping.

This is a nice hotel for short business stay with budget and probably for sightseeing in the Tokyo area. I was staying for a few weeks and not for comfort so if you are looking for a comfortable hotel stay, this may not be your immediate choice.
