Experience of the stay
This is a very comfortable apartment-style hotel, with a one-bedroom living room layout and a full kitchen, allowing you to imagine yourself living alone in Tokyo as if you have a small home.
I love hotels with balconies, not to mention being able to see the lit-up Tokyo Tower from the balcony. On the first night, I stood on the balcony for a long time watching it, it was simply a dream come true.
The next morning, I woke up, pulled back the curtains to let the sunlight pour onto the floor, boiled water for tea, turned on my computer, and worked slowly until I felt hungry, then I put on my coat and scarf and went out to find something to eat.
Because it was cold, I hesitated several times about eating out, and for two meals, I bought food back home, sitting alone at a large wooden table, slowly enjoying my meal.
If you want to play the role of a Japanese resident living here for a few days during your travels, having a spacious apartment-style hotel that feels like home is the ideal match.
Experiences during the trip
It's just a 15-minute walk from Azabudai to the Tsutaya bookstore in Roppongi. In spring, I also recommend taking a stroll to the Mori Garden and Roppongi Hills, walking all the way to Tokyo Midtown to see the cherry blossoms. These places have two distinctly different atmospheres during the day and night.
Recently, a new style of travel called JOMO travel, or "Joy of Missing Out," has become popular, where you deliberately miss out on things, letting go of the anxiety of "fear of missing out", and quietly enjoy life in a foreign place at your own pace.
I don't have many photos from these days, but I remember having a very pleasant time.
