The room was clean and while it was quite small for 2 adults and 2 children, it was functional based on the knowledge that Japan spaces are small but literally if you open up the sofa bed, there is really no room left as we also stored our luggages in the hallway as well as in the bedroom (we had 4 big luggages) so there wasn’t much room to open them up. There was a cold draft coming from the window that became very cold in the middle of the night when the thermostat automatically turns off when the room temperature is reached. The host provided good quality shampoo/ conditioner. The place is a short walk to Iriya station (there are elevators at exit 4 for luggages so you don’t have to climb the stairs) which is one stop from Ueno where you can catch the skyliner back to the airport and we paid for baggage storage services from Skyliner at Ueno station as the coin lockers are always full for very large size luggages. We has to lug the luggages to the 2nd floor of
the apartment which is also very narrow. I would say overall, it was good value comparable to other hotels / Airbnb’s but would be hard to adjust to how small the place are for foreigners accustomed to spacious hotel rooms.
