Comfortable and quiet. I was on the 6th floor. Place was fairly large and had a table for me to use my laptop. I'm surprised because the Google ratings are not high but my experience was very good.

Great location, central to Shinjuku without being noisy or crowded. Great facilities with clean common areas.

Stayed in July 2024

Very loud night club directly in front of window and thus impossible to sleep. Facilities old and not very clean.

Location is good.

The rooms are quite small, but it is great for value

The location and staff were particularly excellent

Smelly rooms, paper-thin walls and hard bed.

Only thing nice about the hotel was the location.

Stayed in April 2024

The Hotel hallway smelled like cigarette smoke. The cleaning staff was very noisy. The bed was not comfortable. The bed felt lop sided, It felt like an uneven surface. The photos online didn't represent the room in reality. I made sure to advise a friend not to stay at the Hotel.

The location of the Hotel was excellent.

Before we checked in.I read reviews that someone said the hotel was noisy because it faces the bar. When we were checking in, I told the staff that we needed a quiet room specifically, but the staff still arranged a room facing the bar for us, which was very unacceptable. Thought we changed rooms.i still thought the staffs were disrespectful

The room has a traditional lock, but you're in Tokyo anyway so it's more or less safe.

The staff was excellent. The receptionist who served me from 2/7 to 2/9 was very friendly and tried her best to meet my needs. To be honest, I was a bit wary of booking this place because of the initial reviews, but I'm glad I went ahead because it's within walking distance from all the places I wanted to visit in Shinjuku. The room is fairly quiet and comfortable, and it has all the basic I needs I expect from the hotel.

Hard bed, room had strong smell of cigarettes.

Not having staying more

We came back after a week and it was again so good! The room is not big but we 3 had a very good rest, very good shower, bed linen, WiFi , coffee and tea facilities. Again the people were so kind and helpful, keeping our luggage. And we could use the laundry at this time. We will come back for sure!

Stayed in January 2024

Nothing

Everything, location, room, shower, tea/coffee facilities, bed, bedlinen, WiFi. But the best is the staff, everybody so friendly and helpful, always ready to answer any doubt. We will come back after some days and they were kind to keep our luggage.

Everything, dirty room, noisy place and the price is totally not worthy. I would rather then paying hostel for one bed.

Nothing but the staff is quite friendly which is their job

Stayed in November 2023

There were only 2 things that I didn't like, but didn't affect my stay. The room was mostly clean except for a red drip stain on the wall and all the dust under the beds. The other thing was the size of the shower which was a little hard to maneuver in. It was a little loud at all times, but that's to be expected if you want to stay in that kind of location.... even on the top floor. It didn't bother me though because I'm a heavy sleeper

The hotel is in a convenient location, close to train stations, and has a friendly, accommodating staff. There are a lot of bars and eateries in the area. Just be aware that this is a lgbtq+ friendly neighborhood, and the bars reflect that. I just made a 15 minute walk to omoide yokocho or went to bars/restaurants around shinjuku station, which is about a 10 minute walk

Stayed in November 2023

Wifi was not working at all. Bed was dirty. Bathroom in the same room as bed. Lots of noise from guests and street (although being in the 7th floor). Very expensive

Good location

Absolutely perfect location. Especially for the LGBTQ+ visitors, you couldn’t find a better location. Lovely staff, but it’s Japan, most Japanese are lovely anyway. The reception would sometimes be ready with a towel because I sweat so much, and that was a really beautiful touch. Everything was just right.

Stayed in September 2023

The carpet stank horribly. Why do they even put carpets in hotel rooms? It's very unsanitory. I had to leave because of the smell. Hard bed. No sound insulation on the door. No breakfast available contrary to advertised. The immediate area is full of gay bars, very frequented at night and not the best frequentation (noisy, leaving tons of trash on the streets, smoking...). Thankfully its clean during daytime.

Friendly staff. They stay in a backroom so you don't have to greet them all the time, which is great for me, and they come if called to the front desk and are friendly and reactive. Free laundry. There was only a kind of stool in the room, so I asked for a proper chair and the provided me one.

Great location .. great value for money … price and our expectation spot on.

The pillows!

The location and the air conditioning

Stayed in October 2023

Just note that the windows are not able to open and the property is a little dusty. No breakfast provided.

It has everything despite it being a small room. Mini fridge, kettle, hair dryer, TV, toothbrush, comb, towel, soap, hand wash, room deodorant. Free coffee, tea on the first floor. Washing machine and dryer free for the hotel go-ers to utilise.

Bathroom ceiling was a little low.

Quiet, clean, close to Nichome.

Nothing! We were so happy with Pod Select!

The location can't be beat, the staff are friendly and helpful, great A/C and wifi and the price can't be beat. This is not a luxury hotel, the rooms are compact (I mean, it's no secret, it's called a pod hotel) but it's a fabulous choice if you're looking for an affordable option in the middle of the action.
