Sotetsu Fresa Inn Hotels in Yokohama

Even though staff at the reception didn’t speak English, they were very nice and helpful. I particularly found the room so tiny that I had to leave my suitcase in the corridor between the bed and the door and opening and closing the bathroom room door became difficult and accessing to suitcase to get things in and out became difficult!  The open space under the bed which they claim to be used for suitcase, mine did not fit into it and overall the whole space certainly felt so much like solitary confinement! Under the bed was full dust and as an asthmatic person caused me breathing issue, blocked nose and sneezing so much which could not sleep well! These type of rooms have been designed for Japanese people who are on business meeting from city to city and also good for people with back packers!

The hotel is quite new, just opened in 2024. It is quite close to the train station of yokohama, covered all the way from the train station to shopping arcades to the hotel. You don't even need to have your umbrella if it rains. The hotel is easy to locate. It is quite tidy with all the basic stuffs in the room. You can watch youtube in the TV. The staff are friendly and helpful. One thing I think can improve, this hotel brand (which I have lived in a number of different hotels from this brand) requires room cleaning (even if you decline so) every 3 days (if you live more than 3 days). I don't think it is necessary if the hotel guests do not require so in order to save manpower and be more environmental friendly (which I think the hotel is on one hand promoting). . Overall, I think the hotel is good.

Good location. Hotel is located closed to totsuka train station, lawson and shopping mall. Hotel front desk is on the 3rd floor wheraeas Sushiro is on the 2nd floor and drug store is on the 1st floor.

Really enjoyed my stay at this chain hotel! 1. The location is excellent. There's a convenience store and a subway entrance right downstairs, offering direct access to Yokohama, Shibuya, Nakameguro, and more. Popular spots like Sakuragicho and the Red Brick Warehouse are also within easy walking distance. 2. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. 3. While the breakfast selection wasn't huge, the food was tasty, and it was easy to put together a healthy meal. 4. The room was compact but cleverly designed, with convenient under-bed storage space. 5. Housekeeping did an excellent job; the room was spotless.
