ゲゲストMy first trip out to Japan and All Day Place Shibuya exceeded my expectations. I didn't really know what to expect, but I thought maybe I'd be in a small room with very little amenities. I'm glad I was wrong. At first, trying to find the front entrance to the hotel isn't set up like a typical hotel with a grand entrance. You've got a bar on the ground floor and a set of stairs and elevator flanking each end that lead to the first floor of the hotel itself. The lobby isn't set up with someone behind a desk on a computer, but more like a self-service kiosk you'd find at stores or some fast food joints. The hotel staff sit around a high glass table with laptops almost appearing like regular guests had it not been for some of them wearing the All Day Place t-shirt. They were there more for navigational support of the kiosk rather than actually checking you in or out. In fact, they looked more like college students studying and fixated on the laptops more than hotel staff. Don't get me wrong though, they were very friendly and accommodating though. It's not a very welcoming lobby, but it served a pretty good precursor to how many interactions would be like for the rest of our trip. There is a lot of self-reliance and service when it came to places we visited around Tokyo. Refreshing to have control, but intimidating for people that may not know the language. There are 3 kiosks that will act as both your check-in/out and as a change machine for when you need it. Once checked in, your room key will allow use of the elevators. The rooms are situated in an orientation around a central open air shaft. For summer, expect it to be very hot in the hallways surrounding this and for the winter, expect it to be frigid. And of course heavy rain will find its way into the landings, but it's nothing to worry about. The suites were booked so we opted for the 2 bed standard room. Comfy and a decent night sleep once you get used to the time zone. The sink is to the outside of the bathroom which was separated by a sliding door. The modern toilet was really nice and the shower had good pressure and temperature control. The ice/vending area is in the same room as the washing machines on the 8th floor. The combination washing machine/dryer was decent at washing but terrible at drying. Your experience may vary with these things. Despite going through a drying cycle 2x, I still had to hang my clothes in the room afterward. Back downstairs on the hotel main level is a pizza restaurant that also serves as the breakfast area for the hotel. Very good food overall, can't really go wrong here if you want to stay in the hotel for meals. For anyone not used to waiting around until 10AM for places to open up, this was key to not starving. As mentioned before, there is a bar on the first floor, serving finger foods and a good selection of beers and some liquors. The proximity to everything is ideal and what makes this place my choice if I were to visit again. Just a couple blo
