Marroad Inn Tokyo

Went there for just one night but really enjoyed my stay. I was really worries I wouldn’t be able to check in. Arrived at 11:10 but staff still were very kind to check me in with no worries and kindness. They could also provide English language assistance. That night, there was an earthquake in Japan and it woke me up in the middle of the night. The security guard at the hallway remained called and assured me everything was okay. His behavior was really professional and calm so I could just follow what he did. The rooms are a little bit older and retro but I had a great stay on a really comfortable bed. I did not really get to check the amenities because my trip was really short.

I recently stayed at this vintage spot, and it really feels like stepping back in time. The place is super clean and tidy, which I loved. The room temperature was just right, too! The place is right next to Higashi Fuchu Station on Keio Line from SHINJUKU, is about 40 minutes. Your Tokyo Subway ticket is not valid on this train line. There’s an old FM radio in the room, but it doesn’t work—guess no one really listens to the radio these days anyway. I appreciated that they change the bedding and clean every day; that’s a nice touch! The staff is friendly and respectful, but don’t expect too much help with requests. We asked to borrow an iron for our clothes, but they said it’s only for business guests, which I thought was a bit odd. No laundry service provided. Also, the phone in the room was out of order, and the Japanese toilet was pretty old—the spray feature didn’t work (at least the flush did!). Overall, it was a great stay despite a few quirks. Would recommend if you’re into vintage vibes!
