easy check in the staff was friendly close to grocery stores and restaurants. I couldn't be happier with my hotel selection. Will definitely return the next time I am in Japan. very quiet neighborhood and close to the buses. The hotel has a shared kitchen so it made it easy to cook. Really enjoyed our 10 day stay there.

Convenient location. From Minami-Senju station, you can walk around 10 minutes or take a bus that goes right in front of the building. The subway pass or Toei pass can be of good value for this location, depending on your other plans. Grocery stores close by (within a minute) to get any snacks and drinks you may need. Staff was friendly, and check-in and check-out were easy. My room had a TV and AC unit, which was very nice for the cold winter night. TV is always nice to watch while winding down for the night or getting ready in the morning. Had no problem using the shared shower and toilets. They were not busy when I needed to use them. Clean and comfortable stay.

Séjour en décembre 2023.
Nous étions allés à cet hôtel il y a 7 ans et c'était très bien. Cette année, nous avons constaté qu'il avait besoin d'être rafraîchi. Le tapis du 2e étage ou était notre chargé (#203) doit être changé. La tapisserie est abîmée par de nombreux visiteurs avec leurs valises. L'hôtel est très propre. Le personnel est très gentil. C'est tout de même un bon rapport qualité prix.

Traditional sleeping setup which we liked. Older building, there was a cockroach (saw 1), but fully functioning with elevator. Kitchen, lobby, toilets, hallways were clean, and the staffs were friendly and spoke English. I'd still book/check in to this hostel.

Great little hotel with a good front staff, very helpful. I only stayed one night, but for that night i had a very clean room, a bathroom on my floor, and working ac. Great price of course, you cant really complain about much for these hotels when youre never paying more than $50 USD a night. Also, the bus stop is directly outside, super easy and it takes you all the way to ueno. I recommend!

Great kitchen, close to supermarket, room marginal
Pluses: Nancy the Filippina manager, large shared kitchen with stove, social aspect (many very interesting characters), not far from a good supermarket - so my estimation is this is budget boutique accommodation. Others raved about the garden but somehow I found it less than compelling. For JPY500 one can use the traditional Japanese bath on premises but I did not try. Minuses: futon so-so, very small room (cubicle almost), insufficient number of showers at peak times, walls rather thin, bit of a hike to a confusing entrance train station, front room a bit noisy with traffic, nothing of interest nearby, not the best value on weekends/holidays Would I go back? Maybe.

It's a nice quiet neighbourhood but slightly further away from minami senju train station. Walk about 20-25 min. Shower isn't on every floor, but can find empty bathroom. There's also washing and dryer machines on the 10th floor. Staffs are friendly and helpful. If you don't like squeezing in the train during rush hour, you can opt to take bus to ueno or Tokyo area. The room I stayed was japanese style. I don't find it hard to sleep but the pillow was too flat. For those who prefer softer mattress, DO NOT choose the Japanese style. Travellers staying in this hotel was well-mannered too as I didn't hear any loud noises. Compared to other budget hotels, some travellers like to shut their doors loud or talking louding in their rooms where the walls are thin. Overall, I liked this hotel and the environment, except for the distance away from the train station.

The hotel was pretty good, but the cafe was closed the day we were there and not much else close by. The room was nice and having the kitchen was convenient. A lot of strange old guys hanging around the convenience stores and grocery stores drinking in the neighborhood though.

Perfect place for a base stay in Taito-City.
Perfect for a single, or couple. Tatami Mats on the floor (no shoes) Futon Style mattress. Perfect sized room. Air conditioning, small fridge. Communal kitchen. Women and Men only toilet and showers. Washer and dryer facilities. Bus stop right out the front for 210Yen, a 20min bus ride into Ueno or Akawara for fabulous quirky shopping at Don Quixote, or wander through the streets for market style food and gifts. Wonderful place. Very much enjoyed my stay. Room will get cleaned daily if requested by hanging a thing off your room door. 7/11 style place next door. Wonderful beautiful attached cafe. Super friendly staff. Also if you have too much stuff, they have a swap box. Over weight limit? Leave a deodorant or perfume, toiletries, laundry powder, etc. Such a wonderful idea. People left clothes, shoes, a back pack, which I used for my stay, and left it for Sorbonne else to use. :D free wifi.

After a long flight to get there having such a pleasant and professional greeting from Nancy made my stay at the hotel very enjoyable. I will return again to this hotel in the future.

Very affordable single room in a nice, quiet location. On a good day you can see mount Fuji from the shower room. They focus on tourists so you can find a lot of offers for things to do in the area.

I have a soft spot for business hotels, and this hotel has been renovated into a tourist hotel but maintaining some of the distinctive business hotel features such as small single tatami rooms with futon beds. Personally I found this extremely comfortable. There are showers and toilets on different levels, I didn't really have an issue using these but I can imagine it you didn't have a shower on your level it would be annoying. There is also a washing area. The toilets could benefit from hand soap which weirdly was in the washing area but not in the toilet. The washing area could also benefit from hand towels and somewhere to hang a towel. It would also have been nice if the rooms had tissues. The hotel is around ten mins from the station which I found fine considering the price. My fridge made a strange sound which originally I thought was a ghost. The cafe at the bottom has a very nice breakfast which I highly recommend trying at least once. Overall, as long as you have the right expectation I think this is a good budget choice and I will probably return.

Good enough
The room and facilities were very clean, everything was comfortable and quiet. Despite shared facilities, other residents were polite and non-invasive. One of the people who works at the front desk is not very English-friendly. Despite starting the conversation in English and indicating that my Japanese was in fact quite poor, she continually responded in Japanese. I think they must see a lot of long-term residents who come to study language.

Hotel-Hostel with Japanese Style Rooms
Friendly staff, they let me do early check in, I got to hotel at 10am and they say it was ok. For a 10 store building, they keep the place very clean, you almost enjoy just going to take a shower. Kitchen is shared, but as many other hotel-hostel, is not busy. Next to it is a small living room. When you travel, you basically need a place to sleep. The Japanese style room is good enough to store your things, plus if you like sleeping on tatami, this is the place. Close to Minami-Senju station; if you know how to use the Tokyo Metro, you can get anywhere else and come back without trouble. Also there are JR and Tsukuba Express. I did check out at 10 am, but I needed to go somewhere at 2pm, they keep my luggage while i was having lunch and after they let me stay in the leaving room, they told me I could even have a nap until I was ready to go and by the way, they let me use the internet access. Excellent place, is a lot of value for your money. Definitely, a place to come back again.
