    The decor is a bit strong and not my preference. The heating / air conditioning is centrally controlled, but luckily the window can be opened for fresh ventilation.

    The location is a short walk to Ueno Station and Okachimachi Station, and close to local eateries and Ameyoko. The room is small, but great for its value. The tip to store items under the bed frame is useful too. Everything is clean and new.

    The room was a bit dusty, that’s why I’m not giving a full score for cleanliness. The bathroom was very clean though.

    Great position, kind staff, a lot of free toiletries.

    The pillows were not comfortable, but we made do because we were so tired. The heat was uncontrollable, we set it to 18 and it was 24 in the room when we woke up. A bit tight for two people, but you know what you're getting with a business hotel and the price is great.

    Fantastic location, the streets by the station are full of amazing restaurants and bars. Comfy bed, helpful staff, nice and quiet (I can't believe how quiet all of Tokyo is). I'd give it an 8.5 if I could, but it wasn't great enough to warrant a 9.

    It is in between ueno station and ueno okimachi. Which ever station, you have to walk a bit. The rooms are small for 4 luggages. So you literally need to move the bags around to pack/unpack. They make your bed, but they dun change the sheets. The managers are friendly, but you need to be patient with their understanding of English .the beds are way too soft for me.

    Location is fairly accessible on foot and because it is right behind the famous food streets of ueno, you really cannot go wrong and you will be spoilt for choice on food. Plus you have direct to skyliner, JR network and keisei network.The room is very clean. They literally change your towels daily

    We stayed next to a staff room, so at times we could hear the staff moving things about right outside our door at night or first thing in the morning. The hotel lobby also felt crowded and claustrophobic with little space, many luggage cases, people lining up, and others just sitting at the elevator.

    Great location, clean rooms, helpful staff. As advertised, cosy and comfortable.

    The bed wasn't the best quality ever and the room was small. Despite being such a basic room, it was a little expensive. Other hotels at this price point often include something extra or have something special about them, but APA doesn't.

    Very close to Okachimachi, a short walk from the station. The room was as you would expect from APA, It's a major chain, so you get a very standard small room. We were impressed by the TV, which was much bigger and better than most other hotels at this price point. It was also directly facing the bed, which is not always a given.
