I would recommend this place if you're back packing in the Tokyo area with light luggage. It's only a 15 minute walk to a major Asakusa shopping area. My wife and I were surprised with a gift of flowers and a card congratulating our marriage from the host which was greatly appreciated. The common area is large and although we did not use it there were areas to cook and store food there. Our room did not contain a fridge but we made do. Main issue was the bathroom which was very very small but manageable if your move things around. Other than the bathroom the whole place was clean and very welcoming.
