Great location, right across from Asakusa subway station, making it super convenient to get to places like Ginza. Lots of food options nearby too. We booked a twin room (B-type), which was decent, but it was a bit tight to open our 32-inch suitcase. The bedside lamp design is really problematic; I suggest the hotel replaces them or removes them entirely. My daughter and I bumped our heads on them several times. I'm quite surprised a Japanese designer would make such an error! Everything else was fine. I didn't try the breakfast, as there's a 7-Eleven and plenty of other places to eat downstairs, so I personally don't think booking the hotel breakfast is necessary.

The location of the hotel is super good, Sensoji Temple is nearby, and it is close to the subway station, eating around and shopping is very convenient. The room is clean and super comfortable, come back later.

The room is spacious and the night view from the room is very pretty. It's right in front of Asakusa Station and they rent yukatas, and the colors are pretty! The location of the accommodation is great as it is right near Asakusa Station, right in front of the entrance to Sensoji Temple. The room and bathroom are spacious, and they even lend you a yukata to wear! It would be nice to go see Asakusa with a full set! It was cozy and felt like I was visiting a Japanese house, and I stayed quietly even though it was right in front of a tourist attraction! The breakfast was like a Japanese set meal, like kaiseki, so it was neat and delicious! I was worried because there weren't many Korean reviews, but the staff was very friendly, the location was nice and clean, and there was a Starbucks right downstairs...! I am very satisfied because it was a place that had only advantages in many ways!

The location is convenient, and the ramen at Yonaki Udon even comes with a soft-boiled egg, which is something the Onyado Nono I stayed at previously didn't offer. I checked in on a weekend, so I managed to use the public bath before 8:30 PM. It's really tiny, so don't expect too much; it's still nice for a foot soak, though.

A clean, small, women-only hostel in the heart of the bustling Asakusa district. The rooms are pleasant, the showers are shared, and the linens are fresh and clean. Kettles and stovetops are available. Hairdryers are available, and towels, toothbrushes, shampoo, and shower gel are provided. The only drawback is the very narrow stairs, making it impossible to carry a large, heavy suitcase up.
