Clean, comfortable and close to shopping district. Rooms are small but come with an excellent private bath.
I stayed here 15 years ago and remember liking it more than the fancy $300 a night hotel room paid for by my employer for work nights. Now, if you need space or are traveling with children I probably wouldn't book but it is easily the best value for a comfortable room in all of Japan in my opinion.

Although the toilet is really small enough for 1 girl to use, the bathroom is large enough and the price is really affordable considering the size of room and the area. Also the owner is a nice guy during the check-in process.
Recommend to budget traveller who want a simple room but with private bathroom.
Not recommend it if you are super tall.

The staff were very welcoming, the bed was very comfortable and the place was only a few minutes walk from the station. However there was a strong smell of sewage in my bathroom and an occasional smell of cigarette smoke would come into my room from the hallway.

Siisti huone, paljon ravintoloita ympärillä ja hyvät kulkuyhteydet.
We arrived midnight which was way passed check in time, we were greeted by the owner (if I'm not mistaken), check in was quick and smooth. Stayed for more than a week, cleanliness was upkept all the time. A small property but everything you need for travelling will be prepared. There are a few stations nearby which made getting around Tokyo hassle-free. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Wishing you all the best, will definately be back again!
The guesthouse is on a quiet side street just a couple of blocks from a bustling main street. The front desk clerk was friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English. The rooms are very small but they are clean and quiet. There's no sitting area so the guesthouse works best as a place to sleep and to store your luggage so you can go sightseeing. It's a 10-minute walk from Senso-ji shrine, one of the biggest in Tokyo and a must-see.
Mycket vänlig reception där man tog hand om bagaget både före incheckning och även efter utcheckning. Bra wifi, kyl/frys i korridoren o Micro vid receptionen.
Närheten till alla restauranger o marknader uppskattades.
숙소에서 아사쿠사 역까지 5분 남짓한 거리이고 주변 편의점, 돈키호테등 편의도 좋다. 방에 개인 욕실도 달려있는데 캡슐 호텔 수준의 매우 싼 가격으로 이용 가능하다.
단 방에 퀴퀴한 냄새가 나고 이불 빨래를 안했는지 눅눅하고 더럽다. 남자 혼자 묵기에는 더러운 이불을 감내할수 있다면 괜찮다.
무료 생수제공이 없는점, 냉장고냉동실이 복도에 있는것이 좀 불편했어요 그외에는 다 좋습니다. 교통은 아사쿠사 츠쿠바선이 가장 가깝습니다.

It is old but clean, and the hotel could be spent comfortably.
The hotel was near the station and we could borrow an umbrella there
The bath was the type into which the bathtub and the shower are divided.
