I had a wonderful stay. The location is wonderful for museum-goers and is located right next to beautiful Ueno Park, which has many events and museums within its bounds as well as a lovely lake of lotus flowers. The room was comfortable and very clean, it also had air conditioning in the room, which was great to be able to use on some warm August nights. I was also able to walk to Akihabara for nightlife. My host and hostess were also very kind and attentive throughout my stay. Many deliscous restaurants are also very close by.

숙박비가 저렴하며 조용하게 잘 쉬다왔습니다. 저는 침실 외엔 모두 공동사용인 호실을 이용했는데 별다른 불편함은 없었습니다. 다만, 계단이 가파르고 좁아서 여성분들은 캐리어들고 이동하기 힘들수 있으니 관리인분에게 도움을 요청하시는게 좋을듯합니다. 약간 외진 곳이지만 우에노역 도보 10분, 네즈역 도보 5분, 닛포리역 도보 15분으로 역까지 접근성은 좋은 편입니다. 나리타공항에서 우에노역까지 스카이라이너를 이용하면 빠르고 편하게 이동할수 있습니다. 시설이 좋은 편은 아니지만 숙박비를 고려한다면 이곳만한 곳도 없을듯합니다.

昭和的なレトロある室内だけれども、清潔感あり、根津駅にも近く、上野公園にもそんなに歩く事なく観光には便利でした。旅館の側にコンビニはありませんでしたが、酒屋があり朝７時から11時までオープンしていて、コンビニとほほ変わらない品揃えです。根津駅周辺にはコンビニは多かったです。 スタッフの方々もとても良く満足でした。

Great place! The owners helped us out immediately and always greeted us as we entered. There's a computer in the lounge that's great for printing out flight tickets, and the rooms are super comfy and are cleaned daily for us. The location is nice- it's an 15-18 minute walk to Ueno Station, which is ok, and the path takes you right through the beautiful Ueno Park. Great place, great location and great owners!
