The hotel staff at reception were very welcoming and offered to help with the self-check-in system. (No problem ;o). The was comp@act and very well designed. The breakfast buffet was varied: simple and tasty. The staff at breakfast were a delight: so welcoming and cheerful to all and sundry - tourists, business travellers, others. This was my first visit to this region / suburb of Tokyo. I wanted easy access to both Ikebukuro and Kawagoe using the Tobu Line. The Tobu LIne is a major commuter line: jam packed at the peak hours into and out of Ikebukuro. Try to travel off-peak. Or, travel in the opposite direction to the commuters, if you can. As the name suggests, the hotel locates itself imediately 'north' of the JR station ("eki"), "Kita-asaka". The JR and Tobu LIne stations intersect here in Asaka-dai and you can walk between them in less than a minute. A little further away from Tokyo is Kawagoe, "Little Edo", a small, historically interesting and visually pretty city. The effort made by staff in the tourist information office along with the shop keepers etc. in "CoEdo" do their friendly best to make a one day visit memorable. I was lucky enough to have time to combine business with leisure during the two nights I stayed at Toyoko Inn. If you plan to eat out in Asakadai, try the several restaurants (izakaya) located in a line under the JR railway viaduct, less than five minutes walk from the hotel. There are also two large-ish supermarkets nearby.

Clean, modern, friendly staff, and right next to the train station. The complimentary breakfast was nice. There are plenty of stores and restaurants right outside of the hotel.

The bathroom had a sewage smell. It was clean but the smell was coming from the floor drains. I'm sensitive to smells so this was a concern for me.

(1) less than 3-min walk from the station (Kita-asaka), so there are plenty of restaurants around if you wish to dine-out (2) convenient and still pandemic-alert method of giving the room's electronic card, if you made your reservation in advance (3) the breakfast is good enough (bread, pasta, soup, drinks, veggie salad) (4) polite and helpful staff

I just wish the dining space in the lobby were wider and more spacious. It got a little crowded when I had my breakfast.

Breakfast was very good, the room was comfortable and clean. The staff were patient, I don't speak Japanese but there was no problem, the staff spoke Japanese, and the guide on the TV was also available in English. There is parking available at a reasonable rate.

Nothing really

this property was very clean, staffs were very friendly, their buffet breakfast was excellent and their price was very reasonable.

nothing

Location was great, whilst close to the train station it was quiet. Breakfast was include and it was very good. The staff were friendly and helpful

Close to train station

Breakfast time too short. Since the checkout time is 10:00 am, maybe it would be better to extend the breakfast time to 9:30.
