I gladly give this place a 10/10! The price is genuinely excellent for such a location. Overall, it was very clean,
Exceptional value for money, a great place to stay!
Everything was great, but a few minor details could make it perfect:
1. In the kettle/microwave area, space is limited. It would be helpful to have at least a small shelf so you don't have to hold your plate or mug in the air while making tea.
2. A full-length mirror is missing (even a shared one in the hallway would be great).
3. Only one small towel was provided per person. Also, there was just a tiny bit of dust in some places, but nothing critical.

Great value for money, if you are really only in the room for sleeping it is alright.
Quiet, peaceful location. Reasonably close to public transport. Very good price.
A little cramped, no window in our room, mattress a bit thin.
10 / 10
Decent
Incredible location, helpful staff, good air conditioning
It can get loud if you are on the bottom floor but that’s just how hostels work
1 / 10
Just pay a little more and go elsewhere, it will be a massive upgrade for a small price difference.
No pros at all, in fact for the price they charge, you might as well pay a little more for a massive upgrade
First message you get from them when you book is to please rate them 10 stars so that they can continue living.... why is this begging included in the Welcome automated message? This is a red flag. And then when you leave they ask you to leave a minimum of 7 stars and guilt trip you so that they won't be "shut down:. This is false information. There are plenty of places with less than 7 stars still operating, and better than this by the way.
1. There were 2 prices available so we booked the second price and asked to cancel the first. They wanted to make an extra 6,000Yen so they said that the time to cancel is over, despite the booking having only been 4 hours ago, and it would've been 2 hours if they didn't purposely ignore my message request. There is a reason this "hotel" is always available for booking. Very scammy owners.
2. There is no check in and the door codes are the same. We only realized this because we had 2 bookings with the automated message of the door codes. Very unsafe.
3. No hot water, you will freeze. No heat either.
4. Dead bugs and cobwebs under the bed and corners
5. Bed is creaky and you can feel the mattress springs
6. No space, cannot open luggage.
7. The shared shower space is just a curtain, no door or curtain hook, anyone can walk in on you.
Usually I leave a high rating even if the stay was not great because the staff are the sweetest. The staff aren't even here. And very rude with message replies. They also ignore you the first message on purpose.
Just don't stay here. Highly recommend coughing up $30 more for a massive upgrade elsewhere. We ended up booking another place and loved it. Comfy beds, heating, hot water, heated toilet, so much better.

L’emplacement est top, à moins de 10 minutes de plusieurs stations de métro, d’épiceries et de restaurants. A moins de 20 minutes à pied du beau temple d’Asakusa et ses rues commerçantes, ainsi que la Tokyo Skytree derrière. A l’étage la première chambre et la troisième sont assez satisfaisantes (les deux d’en bas et la deuxième d’en haut sont sombres et oppressantes).
Les échanges avec l’hôte étaient agréables et efficaces. Nous avons eu des réponses rapides et des conseils utiles pour trouver une buanderie et utiliser le service Yamato de transfert de bagages en passant par 7/11 ou Family Mart(Yamato est très pratique au Japon et peu coûteux ! Nous sommes passés directement par un centre Yamato dans les ruelles près du logement en direction de Ueno car accessible facilement à moins de 10 minutes à pied).
Le logement est étroit et humide, la propreté n’était pas du tout satisfaisante dans les sanitaires, très surprenant car la propreté est d’habitude très présente au Japon. Le séjour dans le logement manque de commodités basiques (serviettes de bain minuscules juste pour le visage, pas de mouchoirs ou d’articles de toilettes comme dans tous les autres logements, heureusement que savon et shampoing étaient présents). Certains murs sont abîmés dans les chambres avec des trous et nous avons eu la visite de cafards durant le séjour (peut-être que boucher les trous éviterait ce genre de nuisance où ils viennent d’ailleurs). À cause de tout cela je trouve le coût du logement trop élevé, heureusement que l’emplacement est top.

The room stayed warm with the heating on. The showers had good pressure and were hot, stocked with shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Location was good, close to asakusa, plenty of good food options and shops. Not far from metro.
The room had enough space for a small amout of luggage, we struggled with 2 hold suitcases. The beds are not the most comfortable, only 1 pillow each. They hoovered the room right as we checked in at 4pm but it needs a deep clean including dusting of furniture and aircon unit. The security is quentionable, the door lock is not very strong, we used our own lock. Also the front door does not have a self lock option so most guests leave it unlocked. Mind no hot water in sink. Overall, ok price for location and warm but needs some work, ok for few nights with not much luggage.
