If you're sightseeing in Tokyo, you can't get a better location. This comfortable room is perfect for tourists looking for an authentic, well-priced stay right in the middle of Asakusa's traditional temple district. You'll be surrounded by atmospheric old streets brimming with shops and restaurants. Everyone else travels to Asakusa to see Senso-ji for the day, but during your stay here, Senso-ji and its surrounding attractions will greet you every time you walk out your front door. You can also access the rest of Tokyo conveniently via two nearby subway stations. This room makes a fantastic home base, especially for first-time visitors to Japan. As a welcome bonus, Yoshimoto was extremely responsive to all questions I sent via Airbnb's messaging system. Most responses were received within half an hour.
All that said, compared to a standard Hilton hotel experience, note that Yoshimoto's apartment would be considered "roughing it" in several important ways: 1) the traditional floor futons provided for sleeping are very thin mattresses that many westerners will find uncomfortable. If you don't mind sleeping on the floor while camping, you'll be fine. (Pro tip: fold them in half for more padding.) These futons are common in traditional Japanese tatami rooms, so this isn't a problem with the room, so much as a warning to tourists who haven't slept on a futon before. 2) As others have mentioned, the walls are thin enough to hear conversations in neighbouring rooms (similar to a standard western suburban house). Noise from neighbours, however, wasn't a problem during my stay as the vibe was "polite and respectful," not "hostel party town". 3) If you're staying during the summer of 2019, expect noisy construction across the street on weekdays. Not a problem evenings and weekends.
One final note: while the room does include a private bathroom (toilet/bath/shower), the kitchen from the photographs is shared by everyone in the building (i.e., it is not part of the private room). The kitchen was, however, always clean and freely available during my stay.
All told, I give Yoshimoto's room two very enthusiastic "thumbs up".
