The Hotel is located in a reasonably convenient location for exploring Tokyo. However there were quite a few issues which left us feeling a little disappointed with our experience here. Firstly, most hotels we’ve stayed in are classy enough to allow you to check in early if your room is ready. However, APA attempted to charge an excessive fee for this. Naturally, many of the guests were reluctant to pay up, and this meant that the lobby and the cafe area was full of jet-lagged guests and luggage, and come 3pm the queue to check in was almost out the door. The first room I was given had a big leak coming from the air conditioning unit and the carpet was saturated - although it’s fair to say they changed my room with the minimum of fuss. The room was only cleaned every 3 days, although clean towels were provided every day. The gym was tiny, and only had room for an old running and rowing machine, and an exercise bike (which didn’t work). Also, there was not enough lifts and the wait each morning and evening was a nightmare. In the time I was there, I didn’t see the cafe open once. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful.
