I can to stay in the Sakura hotel ikebukurou for a study abroad summer trip and it was such an amazing stay. Ikebukuro is probably my favorite district of Tokyo-so many things to see, eat at, and shop-so I felt like I had a wonderful place on top of a lovely hotel experience. The staff were kind and could speak many languages so I didn’t feel nervous about asking for help. It was also an incredibly affordable stay and just so so comfortable. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a safe, inexpensive, and cute stay! Also there’s an adorable cafe across the street connected to the Sakura hotel so if you’re ever hungry and don’t want to go far you can always eat there and I just love it! Will truly miss this hotel and this country 🥹
