The location was good enough for us to walk to Ueno station for shopping and restaurants. It’s on the quiet side of Ueno so it was good. A pharmacy and 7-eleven were right around the corner. There was a small park which was great for my kids. The rooms were clean but small…
However, it was a little too small for 5 of us with luggages. There were no storage cause most of the cabinets were locked for unknown reasons. The windows were old and we could feel the heat leaking through. There was no elevator so it was difficult being the dad who had to move 7 pieces of suitcases up the stairs. And someone was smoking in another unit and the smoke somehow came to our unit through the kitchen hood fan… I guessed they were connected and it was not pleasant for my wife and little kids.
Overall it was a good value stay but it was just alright.
