I chose this place because it's close to Ueno train station. You bring your own towels to the room. Small towels are extra. There's no duvet cover, just a throw blanket. You make your own sheets. The sheets and throw blankets are small and not comfortable.

“Pretty decent stay in Ueno”
There is an elevator, you don't need stairs while climbing up with the luggage. Free extra amenities such as toothbrush, toothpaste, towel exchange for every day, coffee/tea/water. Pretty good location in Tokyo, near station.

“The best budget and convenient hotel in Tokyo, Ueno!”
The staff and the management of the facilities and customer experience was actually well thought out. Even after check out, you can leave your personal belongings infront of the counter and have provided laundry, dryer, and shower outside in the lobby for those who needs a last minute shower after checkout. They are so helpful and staff are versatile with request. I love them!
