Location is a nightmare for overseas travellers. Its too far from everything and the hotel staff wont help you to get tqxi. An hour walk is the nearest train station and it will cost you 500 yen for a taxi to get to the city.

I hadn’t noticed when I searched for the hotel, that this one is very far from the station and hard to get to. The hotel description touted it as “8 minutes walk from Tokorozawa station”. This is completely untrue. It is more like 15 minutes by taxi (¥2,800), or 25 minutes by local bus… and the bus only comes once an hour.
Since I’ve lived in Japan most of my life, I should have picked on the hint when I first saw the photo of the hotel when booking, but many foreign travels will not know that Japan has many “love hotels” (discreet hotels for couples to surreptitiously do their thing). They are usually apparent for their gaudy signs and many bright lights or strange building designs. I suspected as much when I arrived at the hotel, but became certain when the reception was hidden behind a window (for guests’ privacy), I saw packsged condoms in a tray bring the bed. I had inadvertently landed in a love hotel. This explains why it is so far away from the station and in a rather nondescript, factory area.
Service-wise the hotel isn’t bad. The staff was helpful (especially when asking about the bus service), and the rooms very clean. The room itself was quite big, with space to spread out. The bath was actually huge… traditional ofuro-style… with all the soaps, shampoos, bathsoaps, towels, and amenities you would need. So I have no complaints about that.
But they should have been more honest and clear about it being a love hotel, and most especially about the big distance and inconvenience to get there.
