There are two drum booths, both of which are equipped with the Sonor 3007 Starclassic Performer kit and a 7-cylinder amp. The space is equipped with air conditioning as well as a computer, which you're also welcome to use.

Please call 010-4194-0000 to get in touch with this space. You'll also have to ask them what their exact address is because that was also not listed.
