Experience of the stay
Due to a sudden decision to travel solo to Yokohama from Miyazaki the night before, I booked a two-night stay at a hotel via Hafh. I couldn’t find availability for the return ANA flight, so I used Hafh coins to reserve a JAL flight!
Booking the hotel with a great number of coins was fantastic, and being able to secure a JAL flight was quite helpful.
Upon arriving at Haneda Airport, I headed to the express bus stop number 12 in the first terminal, and had a comfortable bus ride of under an hour to the bus stop near the hotel, "Kanagawa Arts Theater/NHK Front," which costs 1000 yen for adults.
It was only about a 5-minute walk from the bus stop to the hotel, making it super easy.
After checking in at the front desk, I picked up the necessary amenities in front of the elevator and made my way to my room.
My room was a studio double, with a very large bed that allowed for a relaxing stay.
The room included a refrigerator (with a freezer), a BALMUDA oven toaster & kettle, cups, and tea supplies.
There’s a 7-Eleven nearby, so I bought some bread to heat up in the oven toaster, and the surface of the bread was crispy while the inside was fluffy, which was perfect!
There’s also a lounge on the 7th floor exclusively for guests, equipped with an ice maker, coffee machine, and dishes, where some guests brought in breakfast to enjoy.
During my stay, it rained continuously, but the front desk lent me an umbrella, which was very helpful!
I was able to store frozen pork buns and chives buns bought from Chinatown in the room's freezer, which was great.
With Chinatown just a 10-minute walk away and the Red Brick Warehouse about 15 minutes, the hotel was incredibly convenient and a fantastic choice!
Experiences during the trip
It took about a 10-minute walk from the hotel to Chinatown, so I went for a stroll.
In addition to Chinese restaurants, there are also yakitori shops and izakayas, allowing for a delightful food tour.
Moreover, it’s about a 15-minute walk from the hotel to the Red Brick Warehouse, and I also recommend the trendy Hammerhead shopping mall next door, which has dining and souvenir shops.
There are popular hamburger joints and dessert shops that can get crowded, and I ended up buying too much, but it was so much fun.
Walking back to the hotel is fine, but there’s also a cute bus called "Red Shoes" that operates, so riding it is a good option.
There are two convenience stores and several cafes within a 5-minute walk from the hotel, making it a comfortable stay.
