This hotel is such great value for your money. I've also stayed in this chain hotel in Tokyo. It is very clean with comfortable beds and good wifi connection. They provide more amenities they similar American chain hotels. They are also located in popular tourist areas and close to public transportation. The double rooms are very compact. As a solo traveler I have found them to be comfortable.
