Pros: enough room for a large party. My room had 5 beds and this amount of space for this many people is hard to come by in Tokyo.
Cons: The restroom on the lobby area and the immediate kitchen area smelled like a dirty rag.
Also, the toilet "rooms" on our floor were too small. They felt almost like airplane lavatories. I understand since this place is a "hostel" they need to separate the wash areas/showers/toilets, but they feel a bit cramped.
Overall, I guess the pros for this place outweigh the cons. If you are looking for a decent-priced hotel for a large group, this is the place.
We were really happy with our stay here that we stayed here both at the beginning of our trip and at the end when we came back to Tokyo before we flew back home. We were a family of 5 and lucky enough to book the private room for 6. We used the extra bed to lay out our suitcases. While there wasn't any place to sit except for our beds it provided us with a nice comfortable place to sleep after being out all day. We also liked hanging out on the main floor of the hotel if we wanted more room. Highly recommend this place! Glad we chose Ueno as our home base in Tokyo as transportation from the airport or anywhere in the city was so easy from there.
The staff is so helpful, not sure his name is, but he was a big help for us when we left by calling the taxibto take us to Kensei station. We have many big suitcases to carry, he helped us bringing them to the taxi as well. He's genuinely nice! The hotel/hostel is a walking distance to JR station, very accessible to transportation and stores. The room is clean and well maintained.
We were a family of 5 and lucked out with a private room for 6 with a private bathroom. Although small we made it work.it helped that we had an extra unused bed to lay out some luggage. We brought some string to hang our clothes. The laundry in the building helped us alot. We only did the breakfast once as we really wanted traidtional japanese food for breakfast but the buffet served bread, fruit and eggs with coffee. The location really worked for us.lots of resturants and shops close by and Ueno Station is just across the street.
Would stay again
Great location and clean. Though the room a bit smaller than anticipated.
Good staff and helpful advices.
Just one thing- too many first time visitors staying, so if that’s a bothering thing for you. Then you know what to do.
