Super Hotel Lohas Ikebukuro-Eki Kitaguchi

Stayed here in March with family. Front desk was always very helpful and pleasant and also spoke English. Upon check-in, females given two choices of a pack of face products. In the lobby, there was a money exchange machine, a kiosk to buy breakfast daily, laundry area near front desk, luggage storage, and essentials such as toothbrush, soap, etc. They also lend out umbrellas. You can also help yourself to drinks anytime and alcohol only in the evenings. The desk is open 7am - midnight. Near the 2 elevators, help yourself to pajamas which some guests use to also walk around and use for the onsen. You can exchange your pillow near the elevator too. You are only allowed one pillow in your room per person. If you don't want your room cleaned, you are given fresh towels, wash cloth, floor towel, toothbrush & toothpaste, and 2 bottled water daily. The breakfast area is on the 2nd floor. The staff there are so courteous and helpful. Many, many breakfast choices. Some items are changed daily. The miso soup, tofu, meat items, croissants, and there was always fish--are my favorites. The food was delicious! Thank you so much to the hard working staff who kept the food filled and the area clean. The walk to the Ikebukuro station is about 5-8 min. walk depending on how fast you walk. There are many convenience stores nearby and another 24 hour laundromat around the corner from the hotel. The staff at the hotel are extremely nice and always work hard to keep the area clean. Thank you for a great stay! arigato gozaimasu
