My recent stay at Hotel Glou was exceptional, largely thanks to Ming at the reception desk. From her warm welcome to her excellent recommendations and assistance throughout my stay, Ming's hospitality was outstanding. The hotel's clean and comfortable rooms, along with its top-notch amenities, added to the experience. I highly recommend Hotel Glou, and Ming's exceptional service made it even more memorable.

This hotel (or hostel) is incredibly basic and difficult to find and access (taxis cannot get into the tiny street, so they drop you at the corner, and the signage is less than obvious). The area is dirty, crammed and even dangerous (for Tokyo standards, mind you). There are better and cheaper options in the area. The shower was terrible and the bed extremely soft and uncomfortable

I had the genuinely most wonderful stay here in GLOU, from the moment I checked in onwards. The staff were legitimately, some of the kindest and most helpful folks I have ever met traveling, and were working hard to ensure I had a good, comfortable time. The location is incredible, close to major Tokyo Metro lines, as well as a bustling, major thoroughfare stocked with food options, but tucked away far enough in a suburb that the actual hotel is quiet. The hotel is incredibly clean, with a very helpful all laundry machine in the basement. The turnover service was exceptional, going to the extent of organizing my belongings and tying up a USB cable that I was no longer using for storage. I have never been this impressed by room cleaning service in my whole life. This is the favourite hotel that I have ever been at. I am looking forward to returning to Japan for future travels, and I hope to be able to stay here in the future. Thank you all! ありがとうございます
