Pros:

If your traveling on your own and on a budget its a great place to stay the room was clean and the hotel is 15 minutes walk away from minami senju train station and the bus stop is not far away 30 minutes walk to Asakusa. The showers could use a face lift but overall the kangaroo hotel was a good experience. Clean bed and very affordable.

Pros:

the price point for this hotel was great, you could walk to Senso-ji within 20 - 25 minutes, the room itself is simple but fine, has everything you need, the bed is ok for a few nights I wouldn't recommend for a longer stay. The bathrooms definitely need a proper clean or renovation, it is an odd setup with toilets on floor 1 and 2 and the showers only on the ground floor. All in all for a short stay it didn't matter to much, but this is a simple stay and you get what you pay for.

コストパフォーマンスが魅力なので、その点は、十分に満たしていると思います。

シャワールームがもう少し手入れされていると、よかったかなと思います。

You get what you pay for
Pros:

The rooms are cramped. Feels like a prison cell by the 3rd night. Beds are very uncomfortable. Pillows are flat. But the hardest part was having to go up a floor to reach a toilet. Definitely not enjoyable in the middle of the night. Hotel staff was great. Location was excellent, near bus and train stops. Amazing price. But we struggled staying there for 5 nights.

Great Stay
Pros:

Great hotel for two travelers who want to experience a Japanese hotel. I felt very safe traveling alone with my son. I felt very safe with restrooms down the hall and showers on the first floor. We brought a charger with multiple ports as there was only one outlet.
The bus stop is a few easy blocks away.

Très correct
Pros:

Bon logement. Les parties communes sont nettoyées tous les jours. Mal isolé donc on entend beaucoup le bruit du couloir. Un peu excentré donc beaucoup de temps dans les transports.

Pros:

The most disgusting “hotel” I have ever seen. I had body fluid stains on my bed sheets when I checked in and was handed linen to change the sheets MYSELF when I asked for the linen to be replaced. The bathrooms were unsafe due to excessive black mould, it’s absolutely disgusting the state of them. No signs of cleaning in the 5 nights I had to endure in that dirty place. The staff were never helpful or denied being staff even though I saw them come out of the staff room when I had enquiries. Do not stay there.
