“The staff were super friendly, spoke excellent English, and were eager to help. The theatre double room was cosy, and the location in a quiet neighbourhood made it easy to explore Ueno Park and the quirky Yanaka district. The free beer from 6 to 7 pm was a nice bonus. Highly recommend adding breakfast to your stay!”
