Hotel Gracery Shinjuku
"Great hotel however being in the red light district is not ideal. There was a lot of garbage every morning outside the hotel on the streets however the city employees were present to clean it up. Just a bit of a surprise to see so much garbage based on previous visits to Tokyo."
