    The pillow and bed were not for me. The bed is super firm. The pillow is super firm and has beads on one side. I'm guessing it's a Japanese thing, not for me.

    Very friendly staff, great location, good value, and the room was cozy. The tatami mat area was a really nice touch. Also, the website says the staff speaks Japanese and Chinese, but everyone I interacted with spoke English really well too.

    Cleanliness: - Everything about the room is clean and good however, our room had a few dodgy redbrown stains on the carpet and on the walls. We didn’t tell the hotel about it which is our fault on our end but if you do, just tell the staff as they are very accomodating! Location: - The location of the station nearest to hotel is good, Uguisudani for JR trains and Minowa for the other train line is good as it’s close to UENO interchange. However, the hotel is a far walk from the JR Station. so if you have luggage, or elderly, be prepared to walk q a by around 10-15 mins from jr and 10 mins from Minowa. If you’re coming from uguisudani station, the area around it used to be a red light district so at night you might see some love hotels near the station but other than that it’s all good and quiet neighbourhood to be in.

    VALUE FOR MONEY!!! - we bought the family room and it was well worth the money. - the room has 2 single beds, and an area for futon beds as well. - there is a fridge, kettle, washing machine with dryer function, toilet, shower area, sink area and traditional japanese living area - i think it would be very try hard to find a room with these amenities and space for the price we paid in tokyo! Staff: - Staff are very friendly and warm. Aircon: - The aircon works perfectly in winter with the heater function so we felt warm all night! Instructions folder: - Every room is equipped with an instructions folder on how to use the aircon, washing machine etc in the room and it was super easy to use the amenities provided Point to note: This is a serviced apartment more than a hotel. The staff will not clean your room or change sheets or towels unless you stay more than a week. If you stay less than a week, you can have a change of towels but only if you request from them. The room comes with a dustbin but we must separate the recyclables ourselves and bring down the rubbish to the counter everyday so that the staff can clear your room.

    If you are planning to use JR Pass only, then it's about 1.2km walk to the nearest JR Station. But if you are fine with taking the Metro, then it's all good.

    It comes with a washing machine and it's good for a group/family stay for a few days. Size is good

    There was a bit of dirt and stain in the bed sheet. We traveled during the cold season but the heater did not work very well.

    Room was larger than I expected. The staff was very kind and willing to help. Great location too.

    I found it quite uncomfortable that it was hard to contact the front desk. Most of the times noone was there and I had to call on the number given there. There was no reaction to our notice that washing machine was leaking quite a lot. Vacuum cleaner was not available. The room was far from quiet since there was a kindergarten under our window and from early hours they had outside time that included constant screaming and crying that made it impossible to sleep in the morning.

    We loved the location, near to the station and we loved taking walks to the Skytree/Asakusa and two convenience stores nearby. The room was nice and clean.

    Only about 5 minutes walk from Minowa Station on Hibiya Line, to name a few, Akihabara, Ueno, Tsukiji and Ginza stations are on this line, which make travelling easy. There is a local supermarket on the way back from Minowa Station, an AEON convenience store opposite and a 7-11 just stone throw away. Bus T-08 from Tashita SamChome bus stop (4 minutes walk) brings us straight to Asakusa and Tokyo Sky Tree in less than 30 minutes. Spacious room for my family of 3. The young gentleman at the front desk is a cheerful and helpful guy, and he tried his best to answer our queries and help us with our requests.

    The staff is rarely seen at the counter and It’s a bit hard to contact the property without phone in japan. Can only use booking.com app for message.

    The staff is very helpful. Room is spacious and clean. Not too expensive. Have a washing machine with detergent.

    what I found quite odd was that guests have to take out their own trash and sort it themselves. at least, the hotel should provide separate bins in the rooms to make sorting the trash easier. it is a hotel, not an apartment…

    the hotel is very close to Minowa station and everything was very clean.

    The building is near streets and somewhere that is close to kids? Literally every morning it’s so loud, it sounds like the window is wide open (when it’s not) and there’s active construction going on outside or something! There’s also the sounds of kids all morning long. There’s also sirens going up and down the street multiple times a day. It’s hard to get rest there.

    There’s a washing machine in unit, however, the dryer is downstairs in front of the front desk! Only 2 dryers which was fine because nobody seemed to be using them when we were.

    It is a good location; the room is clean, there are washing machine hangers in the room, and it has enough space for a family. Close to the MRT station, within 5 minutes' walking. A big supermarket is between the hotel and the station, and a pharmacy is in the back of the hotel, a 5-minute walk.
