My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfort and inconvenience. The rooms were small, so packing light and staying organized is crucial. The cleanliness and comfort of the bed were great, but the cramped space felt like a corridor in an old deserted jail. The service was friendly, although it seemed like the staff were exhausted, especially when dealing with our luggage in the small twin room. The location was not too far from Ueno JR Station, offering a working-class ambiance compared to more glitzy neighborhoods, but booking a tour for Sumida River was a challenge. Dining options were average with a filling but overpriced selection. The hotel had some positives, but be prepared for the limitations in space and dining choices.

The hotel offers clean and quite spacious rooms that are more like flats than typical hotel rooms. The staff is super friendly and accommodating, although their English could be improved. The location grants easy access to all that Tokyo has to offer but can feel a bit working-class. The dining experience, while tasty, may not be worth the extra cost. Overall, a quaint and centrally located hotel with some room for improvement.

The hotel offers cozy rooms that are a bit cramped for those with multiple luggage but are still more spacious than the usual in Tokyo. The beds are comfy and large by Japanese standards. The service is attentive, especially for a modest fee, like assigning an additional room on the same floor. The location is good, close to Ueno Station and Ueno Park, but a bit hard to find. The dining options are limited to homestyle Japanese dishes. Overall, a decent value for money stay.

The hotel is situated in a great location, really close to Ueno Station and offering excellent directions for easy access. The rooms are relatively spacious compared to other places in Japan, quiet despite the main road’s proximity, and some open out to a landing, though a few are super small. The service is professional and accommodating, even providing complimentary bag holding, and the staff speak English. The dining options are not extensive, but the food is delicious and satisfying. The facilities are well-kept and offer everything needed for a comfortable stay.

The hotel's rooms were predictably cosy but clean, with a surprisingly large bathroom, though the room size was very small. The service was lovely, especially the simple breakfast and coffee corner that made us feel at home.

6.0/10

The hotel is located just a little further from Ueno JR station, but not a long walk at all, making it very convenient. The rooms are quite small, especially for Japan, and would be better suited for a single bed. The bathroom facilities were lovely, but it would have been nice for them to speak English more fluently. The dining options were considered overpriced and some dishes had poor taste, although the portions were enough to get you started for the day.
