We took the Tobu-Tojo line from Ikebukuro station and stopped at Tokiwadai station. Because we were in a group of 4, instead of taking the bus, we took a taxi to the hotel instead. The costs vary depends on whether the taxi driver is familiar with the place or if there is a traffic jam. In my case, the costs were 970, 730 and 570 yen each time we took a taxi. If you plan to take a taxi, please prepare the address in japanese. If the taxi driver is still unsure, say 'sanjyu-yon higashiyamacho' and please prepare google map ;D when we had to leave the hotel, we just flagged a taxi by the street and went to ikebukuro station, it cost about 1770. The staff hotel will tell you which buses to take to get to ikebukuro or shinjuku station. The place was really just nice for 4 people. No extra space at all. Hope this review helps.
