Amazing and brilliant
Pros:

Very beautiful, comfortable room. They provided an in-room iron and ironing board, readily available for use. Extremely clean too. Two Underground stations being within 5-10 minutes walk was great. Free coffee at the lobby near the elevators was very convenient when leaving hotel. Doormen always greeted and friendly. The toilet never had a smell during our 7 night stay. They would makeover the room when needed but always respected it when I turned on the Do Not Disturb sign. The room had its own a water dispenser which was way better than complimentary bottled water (never enough for dehydrated travelers). There are also water and ice dispensers on the walls on our hotel room floor.

Cons:

On the booking.com website, it was a bit confusing as to what amenities would be available as it was a bit all over the place on the website. I was also worried about if the stated laundry room had a dryer and detergent or not (It does, KRW1000 for detergent and KRW5000 for laundry or dryer use). The staff was very good and fluent at providing all the answers we needed though :) Also, it would have been greater if the hotel had a pool. It still was an overall great stay :)

Very pleasant!
Pros:

Bed was comfortable. Bathroom is really clean. Warm toilet seat is absolutely amazing.

Cons:

Tap water is not drinkable. I kept on forgetting that. I guess that’s a general issue in Korea, not the hotel’s problem.

宿のおかげで、疲労度がだいぶ違いました。ぐっすり眠れない宿。本当にしんどい。ここは布団が良いのでちゃんと寝られました。私にとってとっても大事なことです。そういう意味で優れていました。
Pros:

クオリティー、水圧の高さ、立地、部屋の清潔度、朝食の充実、そしてこの価格。コストパフォーマンスに大変優れている点。次回の時は必ずここを利用しようと思ってます。

Cons:

特になかったです。

Great hotel, lovely staff and fabulous location
Pros:

Great location, very comfortable and lovely room. Close to underground stations.
Staff were very nice and let us check in early but as our room wasn’t quite ready we went to the coffee shop across the road and when we came back they had taken our suitcases to our room.
My only TINY criticism was that they forgot to inform us about breakfast times and location, but we worked that out just fine.
There are USB sockets which is very helpful (especially by the bed) and the amenities were just fine. Shower is good!
There was also popcorn in the foyer which was delicious! Breakfast was more than ample and varied enough. I would gladly stay here again.

Cons:

Nothing

Would def recommend this Ryokan in Asakusa especially because of it’s unique location and nice modern building. I loved
Pros:

Loved locations at entrance to Senso-ji in Asakusa. Such a great neighborhood even above and beyond the amazing shopping streets and restaurants and lots of interesting places within a healthy walk. Super easy access to metro and an airport train.
Modern building with great elevators and also super handy washer and dryer (for small fee). Ice machine. Rooms are as small as to be expected —futon, nespresso machine in room. Efficient cleaning. Nice shower with amazing water pressure.

Cons:

The front desk service was uneven—maybe they were training new staff as there were numerous and different people every day who weren’t entirely sure about things.
