This is a very clean hotel on a quiet street in the dynamic and bright neighborhood of Akihabara. I loved that we were so close to the high energy Electric Town without having the noise and lights on our particular street.
The AC worked very well, which was huge for us in steamy monsoon season.
We definitely recommend Ficus Ryokan. Our only negative experiences were that the front door didn't latch properly without extra attention; so the front door was open two mornings without any staff present. Our very clean room was on the bottom floor; so our drain was a bit slow and clogged.
Otherwise, this place was very comfortable and very new.
