Estuvimos practicamente solo para dormir, pero pagué menos en otros hoteles más confortables.
Pros:

La ubicación era excelente. La vista desde la ventana también.

Cons:

El baño era muy pequeño. La habitación era fría, tardó varias horas en calentarse. La cama era aceptable.

Nice place, perfect for using after getting the skyliner from the airport to the Ueno station. Shoul
Pros:

Fantastic location for getting straight off the train from the airport - just over the road!

細かいことを気にしなければお得感あり。
Pros:

料金が安い。上野駅から近い。食事場所が近い。
静か。散策できる不忍池、弁天堂が近い。

Cons:

部屋の窓が開かない設定になっており、ロケーションの悪さ、息苦しさを感じた。
ベッドの掛け布団が旧式の毛布で、寒さ対策で2枚重ねて使用したが、重かった。

Pros:

Location is right next to the Keisei Ueno station which is very convenient if you are going to and from Narita Airport. There is a conbini really close to the hotel. One of the staff members can speak English pretty decently and cooperated with my request to store my luggage in the hotel lobby for a few hours after check out. I requested a non smoking room and besides a very minor smell when I came in, there was no tobacco smell. They also gave me a hair dryer.

Cons:

Being close to Ueno Park, you can hear the music being played outside a little. Fortunately it seems to stop before midnight so my sleep wasn't too affected. The walls are also thin so you can hear people from other rooms and people moving outside the hall. The toilets are a standard old western style toilet with no bidet which were cold to sit on but serviceable. Not really a negative for me, but from 2:00 AM to 5:00 AM, the hotel entrance will be locked and staff will not be available. That means you cannot go out during that time and you must come back before 2:00 AM since before you leave the hotel, you must give the hotel staff the room key.
