The hotel is relatively quiet and in a convenient location, making it easy to get around the city. However, the rooms are extremely small and feel quite cramped. The beds are made of concrete with a thin mattress on top, which was not very comfortable. Another downside is that the reception is only staffed during limited hours during the day, so assistance is not always available when needed. However the stay was very cheap, so in summary I'd recommend it.

I liked that I had my own private space, and a key. The hotel was in a nice quiet area, close to transit, making it accessible to everywhere. While you walk from the station to the hotel at night you get a beautiful view of the tokyo skytree all lit up. There’s also multiple convenience stores within walking distance open 24h. The only con is that the shower rooms were really gross. Moldy ceilings, plumbing on the verge of coming out of the wall, and water temperature never stayed in one place. Other than that I would recommend this place.

If your traveling on your own and on a budget its a great place to stay the room was clean and the hotel is 15 minutes walk away from minami senju train station and the bus stop is not far away 30 minutes walk to Asakusa. The showers could use a face lift but overall the kangaroo hotel was a good experience. Clean bed and very affordable.

Room was fine, check in was easy. The concrete walls made the room get cold very quickly. When using the heater the air got stuck in the top of the room making to top bunk very warm while the lower bunk was left colder. Bus was convenient but pretty far from minami senju ~15 min and Asakusa~20 min walk. No way to change the location but the heating situation could have been improved by a fan to circulate air better within the room

Great Stay

Great hotel for two travelers who want to experience a Japanese hotel. I felt very safe traveling alone with my son. I felt very safe with restrooms down the hall and showers on the first floor. We brought a charger with multiple ports as there was only one outlet. The bus stop is a few easy blocks away.

the price point for this hotel was great, you could walk to Senso-ji within 20 - 25 minutes, the room itself is simple but fine, has everything you need, the bed is ok for a few nights I wouldn't recommend for a longer stay. The bathrooms definitely need a proper clean or renovation, it is an odd setup with toilets on floor 1 and 2 and the showers only on the ground floor. All in all for a short stay it didn't matter to much, but this is a simple stay and you get what you pay for.
