Hotel Details

Location

Situated in a quiet neighborhood, just a 5-minute walk from Okubo Station and within a 15-minute walk of central Shinjuku.

The property is on a calm street, yet both Okubo and Shin-Okubo train stations are within a 5-10 minute walk, providing direct access to the JR Yamanote and Sobu lines. Shinjuku's shopping and entertainment district is roughly 1-2 km away, easily reached on foot in about 10-15 minutes. Tokyo Haneda Airport is 23 km from the property. Several convenience stores and a 7-Eleven are around the corner, and the Korean town area with many restaurants is a 10-15 minute walk. A Takkyubin (luggage delivery) office is located 2 minutes from the property. The entrance is on a side alley, so using a map or the host's directions is recommended for first-time arrival.

Dining

No breakfast or restaurant on site; guests can use the in-room kitchenette or find many dining options within a short walk.

We Guest House does not provide breakfast or operate a restaurant. Each apartment has a fully equipped kitchen with stovetop, microwave, refrigerator, and cookware, making self-catering easy. The surrounding area offers abundant dining: within 0.5 km are several restaurants including sushi, ramen, and a cafe, plus convenience stores such as 7-Eleven. The Korean town (about 10-15 minutes on foot) and Shinjuku's main dining areas are also within walking distance.

Wellness and Leisure

No on-site pool, spa, or gym; the stay is focused on practical city-break accommodation.

There are no wellness or leisure facilities (pool, spa, sauna, gym) at the property. The terrace and balcony available in some rooms provide a small outdoor space. The primary leisure options are the surrounding Shinjuku area, with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment within a 10-15 minute walk.

Facilities and Services

Free WiFi, self-check-in, no lift, no parking, and no staff on site for luggage collection; luggage storage available at nearby train station coin lockers.

Free WiFi is available in all areas. The property operates as self-check-in with a key box; there is no reception desk. Staff assistance is available by online chat, but no staff are present on site for luggage delivery collection or personal interaction. The building has no lift, and stairs are narrow, making it less suitable for guests with heavy luggage or mobility issues. Luggage storage before check-in or after checkout is available at coin lockers in the train station 3 minutes away. No parking is provided. The property is smoke-free and pets are not allowed.
