It's close to the station, so it's a great location if you're travelling early the next morning. The room was larger than average, and you had to take your shoes off before entering, so you could sit on the floor.

Nestay apartment Tokyo Nippori

We booked for a stay for 10 days. Location wise its about a 5 min walk from Mikawashima station and 12 mins from Nippori Station. Only downside is that to get to Mikawashima you had to take the Joban line, which you had to change trains at either Ueno or Nippori. There is a 7/11 downstairs and a supermarket downstairs which makes buying snacks or drinks convenient. There was no elevator so expect to haul luggage up the stairs, best to request a level one or two room. I got a level 2 room which was adequate for us as it wasnt that much of a climb up. The room was small (expected of a tokyo apartment). The kitchen has plates, cups, pots, pans, kettle, a stove and a microwave. Great for cooking something or heating up a meal from the 7/11 downstairs. There was also a mini fridge to store drinks and such. Our room included 2 beds and a TV, along with a clothing rack and a wardrobe with an iron and ironing board inside it. One of the beds was squeaking alot when moving around in the bed, it wasnt very bad but it got abit annoying when moving around while sleeping at night. Clothing rack was placed right above our beds which i understand was due to the limited space. There are alternative places to hang clothes such as aforementioned wardrobe and in the toilet. The toilet included a smart toilet which had a bidet and heated seats, perfect for the cold weather. There was a washing machine inside, great for those on long stays. There was also a shower and bath included. Bath was pretty small but not surprising as Japanese bath were known to be small. Amenities included shampoo, conditioner, body soap, hairdryer, washing detergent and toothbrush set. You would also need to sort out your trash which was labelled nicely in english for us to understand. Overall for the price of this apartment, it was a great place with great amenities, better than what we had expected. Would definitely recommend.

Guest House Wagokoro

Pros: 1. **Excellent Service:** The staff were very friendly and responsive. 2. **Clean Environment:** The room was immaculately clean, which made for a very comfortable stay. 3. **Good Amenities:** The ground floor offers a variety of essentials like toiletries and drinks, which is super convenient. Basic living facilities are also generally well-equipped. Cons/Things to Note: 1. **Slightly Inconvenient Entry/Exit:** You need to take off your shoes when entering, which can be a bit inconvenient if you're going in and out frequently. 2. **Firm Sleeping Experience:** The mattress is quite firm and the pillows are rather high. Those who aren't used to a hard bed or high pillow might need some time to adjust. 3. **Cramped Bathroom:** The bathroom is indeed quite small, making it a bit difficult to move around while showering. The wet/dry separation could also be improved.

Self-check-in and check-out are super convenient. Plus, they offer free umbrellas, which was a lifesaver with the bad weather during my stay.
