Experience of the stay
Since I was staying over for my fandom activities, I booked a stay on 12/6 and 12/9.
I have used other stores of First Cabin, but this was my first time in Ichigaya.
There’s a drugstore next to the building.
However, it closes at 21:30 on weekdays and 20:30 on weekends and holidays, so you need to be careful if you check in late.
There’s a FamilyMart nearby.
There’s also a ramen shop called Hidakaya across the street.
Additionally, there are izakayas and such, so there are plenty of dining options.
The shared lounge has a lot of manga available.
It seems people eat there.
I didn’t use it, but there were vending machines for ice cream, drinks, and light snacks.
There are smoothies, too.
They cost 900 yen each, which I enjoyed after using the public bath.
There were also nuts and alcohol available (the latter at an additional charge).
【Good Points】
＊Close to the station.
You can see it from Ichigaya Station. It’s on the first floor of a building called TKP.
＊Overall spacious.
The spacing of the cabins, the public bath, the toilet, and the washbasin were spacious and easy to use.
＊Amenities provided.
In the washroom, there are lotion, emulsion, cleansing, cotton swabs, and cotton pads.
You can go without bringing anything. It’s suitable for sudden overnight stays.
【Points to be Cautioned】
＊At other stores, there was a toilet on the front floor, but I couldn’t find one here.
For the cabin's toilet, you have to change into slippers, which is a bit of a hassle, and after checking out, I attempted to go to the toilet, but couldn’t find it and went to the TKP toilet instead. It was for people with disabilities, so I was a bit flustered.
＊Is there no full-length mirror?
I had trouble checking my outfit.
Also, this isn’t about the hotel, but someone left an alarm ringing constantly.
It was a vibrating sound but was very bothersome.
I wonder if they forgot to turn it off while preparing?
I felt that I also need to be careful...
Overall, I was able to spend comfortably, so I plan to use it again next time.
Experiences during the trip
I went to the Brillia Hall in Ikebukuro to enjoy a Takarazuka theater performance as part of my fandom activities.
It takes about 20 minutes by subway from Ichigaya on the Yurakucho Line.
I really enjoyed the performance of the hit drama "Crash Landing on You" at the Takarazuka Revue.
