HOTEL LiVEMAX Tokyo Kanda-Ekimae

Staff is very helpful. But this hotel overall is extremely budget hotel and that's it. Some people might find it adequate, I didn't. Mostly because how uncomfortable the mattress was. It was really soft and sagging and yet hard. I couldn't sleep well at all on any of the nights. Location is OK with 4-5 mins walk from kanda station.

The hotel is in a good location, very close to the train station and Akihabara. There are many interesting restaurants nearby as well as convenience stores. The room was a bit stuffy because the windows could not be opened. But the air conditioning system was great. The bed was very comfortable.

I stayed in about 8 hotels during my trip to Japan and this one was the worst. The room is tiny. Putting your suitcase on the floor - there's nowhere else to put it - either blocks the main door or the bathroom door. The wi-fi was very unreliable. Breakfast was deplorable, just a small bento and a bottle of drink that you collect from reception!!! There is a laundry but it's only 1 washing machine with a dryer, which in my experience was very inefficient. 90 mins later the small pile of clothes was still not dry. I couldn't open the window at all, not an inch. The location, however, is quite good. Kanda in on the Yamanote line, and others, and the area is relatively quiet but there are still lots of eating places around.

There were many aminities and the location is absolutely fabulous. Right in the middle of Tokyo, between Akihabara station and Tokyo station (at Kanda). Awesome!

Clean with large beds. Foreign reception, a bit hard to communicate in English or Japanese. Looks near but rough road for large luggage to the hotel due to construction, uneven roads.

Clean and good will back soon
