#Shinjuku #Tokyo #Japan #alley

The famous piss alley or Omoide Yokocho in Shinjuku, Tokyo. By day it's just another narrow alleyway common in Tokyo, but at night the street turns into a mini nightlife area for the salarymen of Tokyo. With numerous tiny #bar lining up, the nickname comes from the fact in the past so many drunk salarymen doing their "bussiness" there because there's no toilet anywhere in this alleyway. Today, regulation has been set in the area so it is a lot cleaner than before.

The alleyway is very narrow and can only fit at maximum 2 people at a time so be mindful of your surrounding when visiting especially when there's many drunk people walking by from the bars. The bars are also very tiny and can only fit less than 10 people at a time. If you are not claustrophobic give them a try, it's a special experience on its own :)

We only stayed one night, so it is difficult to say how the hotel is, but it had a cool vibe. We arrived on Friday night and DJ was playing at the front lobby. Generally the decor was mostly black. The hotel staff were very nice. The bakery attached to the hotel looked really good.

Triple room was large and enough for 3 adults and 1 baby (in crib). Excellent toiletries/amenities in room and breakfast buffet is worth it in terms of an add-on. It's close to restaurants and the keio department store, but its a far walk from kabukicho and shopping area. Quiet, safe neighbourhood ...

I call this the RV hotel. If you have ever stayed in an RV, then you will feel right at home. The room is tiny, even for Japan standards. Our double bed was against the wall on one side in order to fit the room. My husband had to slide down on one side in order to get out of the bed. The bathroom ...
