Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in the heart of the tourist area, right near the Senso-ji temple. The rooms are modern and comfortable for families, offering a great sleep quality. However, the price might be a bit high. The service is exceptional with helpful staff offering laundry and tours/ticket assistance. The location is fantastic for exploring the nearby attractions with easy access to the subway station. Dining options are of much better quality, especially the chocolate croissants. The facilities are top-notch, making the stay convenient and enjoyable.
My stay at the hostel was quite unique with rooms featuring 2 bunk beds rather than the usual 8-10 found in most hostels. While the beds were not very clean, the hostel offered some interesting features. The location was excellent, right in the heart of the tourist area near the Senso-ji temple, but it was a bit lively. The dining experience had much better quality offerings, and the facilities were equipped with necessary amenities.
The hotel is in a wonderful location at the heart of the tourist area near the Senso-ji temple. The rooms feature unique bunk beds suitable for families with kids, although cleanliness could be improved. The service offers convenient laundry and tour assistance. Although the dining experience is of great quality with local products, the rooms are priced a bit higher compared to the value provided.
I had a mixed experience at this hostel. On the bright side, the hostel is located in a vibrant area near the Senso-ji temple, making it convenient for exploring. However, the room I stayed in had 2 bunk beds, which was a refreshing change from the usual crowded hostels, but the beds weren't very clean. The lockers were only large enough for a small backpack, limiting storage space.
The hostel offers rooms with 2 bunk beds, which is different from the usual 8-10 in most hostels, but the cleanliness of the beds could be improved. It's a great option for families with strictly counted kids in Japan, with a good location near the Senso-ji temple. The dining experience is highlighted by better quality and includes curry, offering value for money.
The hostel is situated in a prime spot close to the Senso-ji temple and in a bustling area with access to nearby attractions. The rooms offer unique bunk bed arrangements with smaller lockers suitable for small belongings, but the cleanliness of the beds could be improved. Service includes laundry and tours/ticket assistance but could be more attentive. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I stayed at this hostel during my trip and had a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit crowded with 5 computers and several strangers, which made it less clean and cozy with 2 bunk beds instead of the usual 8-10. The service was decent, offering laundry and tours/ticket assistance, but nothing extraordinary. The location was a big plus being very near the Senso-ji temple, although the immediate surroundings were not very appealing. The dining area was a disappointment, lacking quality and variety, although the inclusion of jam was a small positive. Overall, the facilities were basic but functional, catering to essential needs.
I had a comfortable stay at this hostel with 6 bunk beds and a balcony. The beds were not very clean, but the limited amount and the strict count of kids made the room less crowded. The location was convenient, being in a lovely neighborhood close to attractions like the Senso-ji temple and a touristy shopping street.
The hostel boasts unique rooms with 2 bunk beds, although the beds could be cleaner. The presence of about 5 computers adds a techy vibe. However, the small lockers might not fit all your belongings, especially if you're carrying more than a small backpack.
