Good location

Value for money. Easy walk from Ueno exit. It’s abit of a walk from the gate but it’s easy to drag to luggage over to the exit and to the hostel. Bed and pillow is too hard for my liking but I stay only 1 night here so it’s fine. Bring your own towel! They charge a small amount for the towel.

Its a hostel so it is what you expect. If you are a lifht sleeper you may have trouble until the train service ends. You can't get any more central to Ueno for sure.

Rooms for a large group

Pros: enough room for a large party. My room had 5 beds and this amount of space for this many people is hard to come by in Tokyo. Cons: The restroom on the lobby area and the immediate kitchen area smelled like a dirty rag. Also, the toilet "rooms" on our floor were too small. They felt almost like airplane lavatories. I understand since this place is a "hostel" they need to separate the wash areas/showers/toilets, but they feel a bit cramped. Overall, I guess the pros for this place outweigh the cons. If you are looking for a decent-priced hotel for a large group, this is the place.

We were really happy with our stay here that we stayed here both at the beginning of our trip and at the end when we came back to Tokyo before we flew back home. We were a family of 5 and lucky enough to book the private room for 6. We used the extra bed to lay out our suitcases. While there wasn't any place to sit except for our beds it provided us with a nice comfortable place to sleep after being out all day. We also liked hanging out on the main floor of the hotel if we wanted more room. Highly recommend this place! Glad we chose Ueno as our home base in Tokyo as transportation from the airport or anywhere in the city was so easy from there.

The staff is so helpful, not sure his name is, but he was a big help for us when we left by calling the taxibto take us to Kensei station. We have many big suitcases to carry, he helped us bringing them to the taxi as well. He's genuinely nice! The hotel/hostel is a walking distance to JR station, very accessible to transportation and stores. The room is clean and well maintained.
