    Amazing location, straightforward, small, barebones

    With the perspective that this is a barebones hotel, cleanliness was okay and room is small. I wish the hotel had TA-Q-BIN service, figured this out the hard way.

    The location was amazing! Close to Ueno's busy markets and the subways. Everything was straightforward and simple. This is a barebones hotel so had to keep that in mind. Staff were very nice!

    Everything is good, except the japanese man manager at the reception in morning shift.

    The japanese man at morning reception is rude. He is not welcoming for customer. He always speak rudely and not helpful at all. but the night shift (2men) is very good a help us a lot. We lost a watch and iphone charger. we back to hotel after that bit they are gone.

    We couldn’t open the window so a bit dusty and not able to change air from time to time, the room was so so tiny, if you are claustrophobic this hotel isn’t for you.

    Where the hotel was located was perfect.

    A near perfect location but lower quality rooms; fitting price.

    The amenities were very basic, which is to be expected of a business hotel. However, the bathtub felt grimy, as if it hadn't been wiped down properly in a while. The room was a bit small, which made opening my suitcase a bit of a challenge at times but not impossible.

    The location could almost not have been better, very close to Ueno Station to connect to the larger Tokyo subway and train network, as well as Keisei Ueno Station to connect to Narita Airport. With a nicely functional airco-unit even the hotter few days were very manageable.

    Unfortunately there was a bit of mold in the room I wasn't staying too long but still it didn't like being exposed. I wouldn't mind a retractable clothes line in the room or washroom to hang dry laundry. Bathroom door didn't fit the washroom and wasn't properly closing and left a large opening at the bottom I wasn't sure if that was on purpose or not? That's all.

    It's location is perfect for tourists solo travelers and very close to Ueno station.

    It's little dated and the bathrooms are small. Also the clothes dryer takes very long to dry clothes. It took almost 3 hours for my clothes which had 4 t shirts, jeans, 4 boxers and socks. Also even though I booked the smoking room as soon as you step off the elevator you are hit with overwhelming odour of smoke. Even as a smoker it was a bit much.

    Close to Ueno, has laundry as well as smoking rooms.

    The small room space.

    There are lots of essential extras, such as an extension cord for charging our gadgets. We had a comfortable stay except for the very small room space which I know is very common in Japanese hotels.

    Too expensive, i had to pay 135.000 yen /1 night for 4 pax. Check in 3pm, check out 10am. NO BREAKFAST INCLUDE. When we arrived the hotel and ask the receiption staff about this price is real, she said maximum offen around 5.000 yen, may be it is a problem from booking. Other guest came to check in and paid around 5-6 000 yen. She asked the manager man again, then the men said that we were be charged extra fee 280% because this day is holiday ( she didnt know which holiday and why other guest was not be charged the same us. I messaged to the hotel on booking before check in and then but no one reply us. However, the room for 4 people is too small with 2 single beds inside under 15 m2. The working talbe to small with iron, microwave, ... Dont have enough space for open our luggage. we could see dust flying in the room when opening the curtains early in the morning because the room too small.

    Good location
