Sheena To Ippei

Lovely stay at the start and end of our trip.

Pros: Lovely small guesthouse/hostel. Excellent location, only a few minutes walk to a Shiinamachi Station metro station, which is one stop from Ikebukuro Station, which then has transport across the city. We started and ended our trip in Tokyo and the owner was incredibly friendly when we first arrived, and even more so when we came back.

Convenient place to stay in Tokyo!

Pros: The owners were extremely and helpful. The place has a great feel to it and is well equipped. Great placement just one station away from Ikebukuro which is great to move around Tokyo and outside. Easy access to stores (711, family mart) and nice restaurants.

Cons: The sound isolation didn't seems the best but it didn't feel very bothersome.

Pros: Sachiko-san welcomed us with great kindness and warmth. Sheena & Ippei reflects that kindness and you immediately feel comfortable and at home! The traditional room we stayed in was beautiful, well-maintained, and very clean; we slept very well throughout our 5-night stay. We were fortunate to have a wonderful time here, full of joy and nice meetings and we hope that if life allows us to return to Tokyo, we will stay at Sheena & Ippei again. Thank you so much Sachiko-san!

Cosy, calm, and close to the action

Pros: Great place with lots of charm, in a quiet neighbourhood but still within easy reach of Shinjuku and Shibuya. The room was warm and cosy while still being a decent size, and the common area had a relaxed, homey feel. Staff were lovely, and the free morning coffee was a really nice touch

Pros: The hosts were amazing, this made our Tokyo stay feel so welcoming and special. The accommodation was so lovely and felt very traditional but with all the style and modern luxuries.

Cons: The stairs to the room are a bit steep if you have trouble with that but we were fine. No issues

Great place, great hosts, great quiet location but easy to access everything

Pros: We had a fabulous stay - lovely place, great room, great coffee. The staff were so welcoming and even helped us transport our luggage from Tokyo to Osaka. We wish we could have stayed longer !! Easy walking distance to the train and good food nearby.

Real japanese guesthouse

Pros: Out of the crowded area of Tokyo but still well connected with main neighbourhoods to We had the tatami superior room and it was spacious and clean. The owner is very nice and is always helping you with advice . Highly recommended!

Pros: We absolutely loved our stay at Sheena To Ippei — such a cool and well connected neighbourhood. The staff were so friendly and the whole facility so beautiful and well equipped. The perfect stay in Tokyo!

Awesome guesthouse !

Pros: Super friendly staff and lovely room. Comfortable futons and the little homely touches were very nice. We had a great stay. We loved the neighbourhood although it is a little way out and quiet. Lovely neighbourhood space downstairs.

Cons: The walls were a bit thin but this didn't bother us overnight.

Pros: Really nice welcome and recommendations by owners. Loved the restaurants and sento in the area. The beds and rooms are super cozy and I slept well.
