Experience of the stay
I consider this my top choice when staying in the city because I can use "O風呂の王様," a super sento! On weekends, a typical visit to O風呂の王様 costs around 1900 yen. However, with HafH, you get the same number of coins on weekends! Although there’s no towel rental, so you have to bring your own from the room, it's still a good deal.
At check-in, you can purchase a bathing ticket for an additional 500 yen, and the morning bath is also nice. The stone sauna requires an extra fee, which you can pay after entering the facility.
The biggest advantage for me is that after enjoying the super sento, I can crash directly into bed at the hotel.
The room, as shown in the pictures, only has a shower room, so it might not be suitable for those wanting to relax privately.
The room's facilities are typical of a regular business hotel.
Oimachi Station is just one stop from Shinagawa on the JR line. The location is closest from JR, but Oimachi Station also has the Oimachi Line and Rinkai Line, making it convenient.
When events are held at Big Sight or Ariake, the Rinkai Line gets crowded since it goes directly there.
Access to Yokohama is also good via the Keihin-Tohoku Line.
Within the hotel, you'll find various dining options like Ootoya, Starbucks, McDonald's, Denny's, and Saint Marc Cafe, so you won't have trouble with food or passing time. Ootoya has a partnership where you can buy breakfast for 800 yen at check-in.
The check-out time was previously 10 AM but has changed to 11 AM this time. I didn’t use it, but an early check-out and breakfast are recommended.
You can store your luggage in a self-storage unit after check-out, which is nice for shy people who don’t want to talk to hotel staff.
I will use it again when staying in the city.
Experiences during the trip
I stayed here to attend an event at Kawasaki Station. It was just a single train ride away on the Keihin-Tohoku Line. I had heard that Kawasaki had safety issues, so I chose to stay within the city. The access was excellent. I thought it would also be nice to visit Yokohama.
In Oimachi, there are some deep bars in the drinking area, where celebrities often drink alone. There is also a popular sauna from a crowdfunding project that is always busy.
