One of the highlights was the family-friendly environment, and the location was perfect for families, with easy access to nearby attractions, restaurants, and public transport

Spacious apartment. Needs more attention to details. No dishwashing soap etc. We had to buy some and start by washing other peoples dishes. Utensils for making food quite poor. No table and chairs where to eat. Checkin inn can be tricky. You need to read instructions carefully and still we had to try few times to get in. Location was superb for us. Would stay there again though, even there was some minor negatives. Learn how to use translator app for appliances, and youll be fine. You have to put water warmer on etc.

The hotel is a little far from the subway station, and it takes a long time to walk. There are no lockers nearby, which makes it very embarrassing if you arrive early. The advantage of the room is that it is very spacious and has all the facilities, but the toothbrush and toiletries provided are of poor quality. It is recommended to use your own.

The room is very spacious compared to rooms in Tokyo. The amenities are complete. It is close to Kruramae Station. There are kitchenware and a washing machine. However, there is a problem with the code to open the door to the building because the information sent was not complete.

The hotel looks very new. Although small, it has everything. It is only 5 minutes away from the subway. There is no counter at the gate and the gate is locked. The buttons didn't work. I couldn't get the password right. It took me a long time to get it right. After a whole day of playing, I had to figure out how to get into the hotel. It took me a few minutes to get in and rest.

The room is quite big, and the sofa bed can accommodate four people. It is suitable for a family of three to travel here, because many hotels in Japan have a limit on the number of people, and three people have to book two rooms. It is more suitable to book this apartment. It is not far from the subway station Kuramae Station and Asakusa Station. It is right by the Sumida River. It is very convenient to see the night view of the Sky Tree and go to Sensoji Temple. There are not many restaurants around, but the subway can reach many business districts, which is not a big flaw. The noise is not loud, and it is quiet to stay!

Located between Asakusa and Skytree, it only takes 15 minutes to walk to Sensoji Temple. The transportation is convenient. It is only 5 minutes away from the subway station Kuramae Station. The room is fully equipped, clean and comfortable.

Check in after 4pm, check out at 10am! No front desk, just self-service! No place to store luggage! No room service, no matter how many days you stay, you have to clean by yourself! The air conditioner doesn't heat!

1. When you get to the first floor, please make sure you understand the intercom password before you can open the door and take the elevator. The elevator is a bit small.
2. After going upstairs, find out the password of the room door first, and remember to lock the door when you go out
3. If there is no hot water, the control panel is on the kitchen wall or there is a panel in the bathroom. Just press it to turn it on.
4. A hair dryer is available
It's a short distance from the subway, there are few shops nearby, but everything else is ok. Affordable family room, the sofa bed in the living room is big enough for sleeping

Clean, large, and with new facilities. 10 minutes away from the subway. You need to take off your shoes before entering the room, but slippers are not provided. There are no chairs or stools in the room.

Everything is very good, next to the Sumida River, very close to Asakusa and Kuramae. Large area, complete facilities, very comfortable, suitable for family stay. The only regret is: there are no slippers, it may be a bit cold to wear socks in winter.

The hotel is in a good location, close to the subway. Since it is a self-service hotel, there is no service, so you need to adapt when you stay for the first time. The hotel is relatively new and larger than traditional hotels. It has a kitchen and balcony, and kitchenware is already equipped, which is good. The bed is a little greasy and doesn't look very clean. Because it is self-service, I don't know what the hotel's replacement and cleaning standards are for kitchenware, bed, and towels, and there is no explanation, which needs to be improved. In addition, the room can be equipped with a table and chairs.

Let's talk about the good things first. The location is convenient, five minutes away from the subway, the room size and facilities are OK, more civilian facilities. But the biggest problem is the password lock downstairs. I tried to open it for half an hour on the first night, and the phone was not connected. There is no service staff. I can only say that this kind of self-service hotel is not suitable for Chinese people. The next day, I met a group of Chinese guests who had the same problem. The instructions for using the password lock need to be updated, and the service staff must be able to answer the phone in time!
