Friendly staff, the one who assisted us at check-in speaking excellent English. Super clean, smallish but comfortable room - no English Tv channels unfortunately, and compact but nice bathroom with great hot water. Beds firm, but to our liking. Only heard occasional noise , and not very loud at that, from other guests. Loved the breakfasts, which varied day to day, but was surprised from an environmental point of view that polystyrene trays were used in lieu of plates. Also breakfast finished at 9am which was too early. Location wise was perfect, within walking distance of Senso-ji Temple and Ueno Park, and close to Kuramae, Asakusa, and Asakusabashi stations. Also plenty of convenience stores and restaurants fairly close by. Would definitely stay again, if ever in Tokyo.
