Great location, amazing staff, perfect atmosphere
Pros:

It’s close to Nezu station, and a short 10-15 minute walk from Ueno center

Cons:

Limited breakfast, and the facilities are quite small, especially if you’re a bit tall / large

Pros:

By far one of the best hostel I stayed at. They have guests comfort in mind with their animeties: lockers big enough to store in your carry-on, curtains on the bed for privacy, slippers, sleeping mask, earplugs and toothbrush already waiting in the locker and an animeties cart in the lobby if needed. I like the bathroom has folding rack and a hook in the shower so you don't have to put your belongings on the floor and clean floor mat at the bathroom entrance so you don't have to use the same floor mat as the other guests. The facility is clean in a quiet neighborhood and the staffs is friendly.

Cons:

It would have been nice if the subway station was a little closer, but 15 mins walk is not that bad.

Wonderful hotel in a quiet neighborhood near Ueno
Pros:

Great staff, perfect location and the free happy hour each evening was a nice way to connect with fellow travelers. Ueno park was a short walk away and a lovely place to enjoy sunrise in the morning.
When I come back to Tokyo, I’ll definitely stay at this location again.

Fint ophold til prisen. Hver opmærksom på at hotellet også fungerer som hostel. Der trænger til en solid omgang rengørin

Amazing hotel/hostel with outstanding facilities, location and incredibly kind, helpful staff.
Pros:

Amazing hotel/hostel with outstanding facilities and incredibly kind, helpful staff.

I was genuinely impressed by the cleanliness of the property and the overall quality of the experience. The common areas are fantastic, including comfortable lounges, reading and working spaces, a shared kitchen, a traditional tatami area, a rooftop terrace, and a lovely café serving a great breakfast.

The value for money is exceptional considering the level of service and the quality of the facilities provided.

The location is another major highlight: conveniently close to Ueno and Nezu stations, yet situated in a quiet, cozy, and relaxed neighborhood that offers a more authentic side of Tokyo.

Overall, a truly wonderful stay. I would happily come back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Tokyo.

Pros:

Bel hôtel dans un quartier calme et bien placé.
Très propre, plein d’accessoires à disposition et personnel très sympathique.

Cons:

Malheureusement le matelas était plus dur que de la pierre, j’ai très mal dormi durant tout le séjour…
Aussi, il n’y avait pas de rideau au bout de mon lit, bien que les images en montraient un, alors quand vous êtes pratiquement collée à la fenêtre et qu’une charmante demoiselle souhaite se maquiller à la lumière du jour et ouvre le rideau en grand bien que vous soyez encore entrain de dormir (et que des lavabos avec fenêtre existent au même étage) cela peut-être un peu agaçant.
