Not within your typical central core region of Tokyo but that means its nested with more local neighbourhood. Great location for me, good escape from the city life.
That said, hotel is located walking distance from 2 train stations on different lines so fairly convenient to get around!
Hotel staff are easy going, yet professional!
Definitely consider staying there again!
Oh! And did i mention 2 super good ramen just around the hotel? Super good!

Ekoda Station is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from the hotel, with both Family Mart and Lawson convenience stores within a 4-minute walk. Nearby, guests can explore several dining options. The hotel does not offer room service; guests are responsible for disposing of their garbage in the designated area on the 1st floor. Laundry facilities are available on-site, with charges of 300 yen for 40 minutes of use, 100 yen for a 15-minute dryer cycle, and 100 yen for washing powder. While these amenities offer convenience, the costs are slightly higher compared to other Tokyo hotels. Towel exchanges are available for a fee. The staff are noted for their helpfulness, contributing to an overall satisfactory stay.
Response from Property: Thank you very much for choosing Flextay Inn Ekoda.Our hotel is located between Ekoda Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line and Shin-Egota Station on the Toei Subway Oedo Line, and can be reached on foot.There is a Lawson convenience store next door, Family Mart, 7-Eleven, supermarkets, and many stores and restaurants.The hotel does not provide cleaning service during your stay. If you would like us to clean your room, we will charge you an additional 3,000 yen.Towel change is free for reservations of up to 6 nights, but there is a charge for stays of 7 nights or more, but at a lower room rate.We look forward to seeing you again.Reception, FLEXSTAY INN Ekoda

Nice business hotel. It is not in the heart of Tokyo, but it is conveniently located close to the Ekoda station.
Rooms are on par with typical business hotels in Tokyo, i.e. not very large, but are comfortable.
Response from Property: Dear Customer,Thank you very much for staying with us this time.As you say, Ekoda has very convenient access to Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.In addition, please use by all means if there is an opportunity.We are looking forward to seeing you again.Thank you for using our service.Flexstay Inn Ekoda Reception

Although small, it has everything. It is close to the subway station and convenient to go anywhere. There are supermarkets, bookstores, McDonald's, hair salons, pharmacies, etc. nearby. There are induction cookers, tableware, chopping boards and kitchen knives, which can be borrowed for free, so you can cook. The seafood rice nearby is delicious and not expensive, recommended. There is no cleaning service, but there is a vacuum cleaner so you can clean it yourself. The only flaw is that I found a blonde hair on the carpet on the first day of check-in. 😅 Overall, this price is really a great value.

When I opened the window, there was no guard, so I thought it might be dangerous if I fell out. If you have children, I recommend not letting them touch the window.
Parking is reserved in advance, but there are many parking lots nearby. I used a parking lot and it was about 2500 yen from the evening until check-out.
There are many Lawsons and restaurants nearby.
The amenities are not that abundant.
Women should bring their own oil makeup remover and facial cleanser.
An induction stove, kettle, and microwave are all installed in the room. This was surprising.
The staff were very polite. They spoke very well.

There was a leak around the hand washing basin, so it quickly became flooded, and I had to constantly put tissues there to soak up the water. The closet (?) where clothes were hung was damp, and a vacuum cleaner was stored underneath it. There was dust in the corners of the bed sheets, so I wonder if they provided a room that is not usually covered without cleaning it. Since I was staying with my child, there were many things that were of concern.
If you are just staying and sleeping and don't mind small details, I think the size and facilities are the bare minimum.
The amenities were at the front desk, but I couldn't pick them up at night, so when I went to get them when I washed my face in the morning, they had all been removed, so I was disappointed that I couldn't use them.

Environment: Overall, it is very close to Ekoda Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. It only takes about 10 minutes to get to Ikebukuro by train (there is even a Harry Potter train!). There are abundant living facilities nearby, including cheap karaoke, 100-yen shops, and various convenience stores. At the same time, because there is a university nearby, most restaurants are cheap and delicious.
Service: Don't force too much service at this price! There is no one at the front desk after 18:00, so pay attention to the time when checking in. If you stay for consecutive days, there is no cleaning service during your stay. If the garbage is full, you need to throw it away by yourself; it is more suitable for friends who don't want their living area to be disturbed!
Hygiene: Overall, it is small but complete, with hair dryers, vacuum cleaners, induction cookers, pots, etc. prepared. My room may have been blocked and vegetables will be spurted out as long as the sink is used because the previous person who stayed there cooked noodles... I hope the cleaning of these locations can be strengthened!
Finally: It is really cheap, and it is still available during the three consecutive holidays of the autumnal equinox

Response from Property: Thank you for choosing Flexstay inn Ekoda. I'm very sorry for the unpleasantness regarding the room cleaning. We will notify cleaning staff and do our best to improve the situation. There are three universities in Ekota, as well as relatively cheap restaurants and shops for students, and it is well received by many customers. The Harry Potter Studio is a 7-minute tram ride from the hotel's nearest station. You can go to Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, and Roppongi without changing trains. Looking forward to your next stay.

The room is clean, but you can see that everything is tired. It's fine for one person, but it would be cramped for two. The metro is nearby, the area is nice and quiet.

The reception staff was a beginner. Please be more confident and confident. As for cleaning, the bathtub had limescale that had turned to coal. The rubber gasket on the bathroom door was covered in black mold. As for deterioration over time, the kitchen door was rotten and the edge was chipped. There was a strange noise from the ventilation fan in the room.
