APA Hotel Ueno Ekikita was the perfect hotel for my first time in Japan. It was clean, quiet, and close to Ueno Station, which made traveling very convenient. I recommend APA Hotel Ueno Ekikita to everyone who comes to Japan.

The room was very small by western standards and a bit of a walk. Defoe something near ueno station the price as right and the staff friendly. The breakfast had limited options but ok. Overall close to Ueno park and able to get to all of Tokyo easily.

It was "ok". Wouldn't stay here again with family

It was "ok". Location was further from Ueno station than I thought based on the info on hotels.com. Rooms were tiny - they should not allow you to book for one adult and two kids in such a room. Also, there is only one elevator for all 14 floors, which is also used by the service staff, which makes getting in / out of your room / hotel rather frustrating.

Stains on floors, walls, and curtains. Uncomfortable bedding. If you are between hotel chains while in Tokyo, we thought there was a night and day difference between APA hotels and Iyf hotels. Go with Iyf! Much better use of space, better toilets, clean, more updated amenities, and overall better!

Typican new simple Tokyo hotel

This hotel is clean and a typical Tokyo hotel of its generation. The environment is a bit hectic. One gets the feeling that the hotel is attempting to get you in and out as soon as possible. It is in a neighborhood that is 100% Korean in every direction limiting the dining choices.

The staff is amazing. They try everything to help out the customer. Though the location is a bit far from the station, around 10-12 min walking, the room is cleaned and with everything you needed. Despite the warmer is too hot for us at the night and is unadjustable

Do not stay here. If you are traveling solo with a single suitcase, and don't mind cigarette smoke, then maybe. Otherwise, it is absolutely not worth it. Room is incredibly tiny, which was expected to a degree, but with 2 people and multiple suitcases, it's a hassle. A lot of your time is wasted unpacking/repacking suitcases just to maintain access to the bathroom. For some reason people love to smoke a lot next to this hotel. The cigarette smell can be strong even on the 4th floor. Also got itchy bites all over my legs, hoping it wasn't bed bugs. I have to mention that the staff were discourteous during the stay. While checking in, the receptionist said the hotel is replacing the fridges in every room, and asked if they could come in to replace the fridge in our room during our stay. At the time we thought we would be gone during the day anyway, so we said ok. I ended up getting very sick, so we tried calling reception to ask them to postpone the fridge replacement until after we check out in 5 days. At first they said okay, then they called back 5 minutes later and pushed very hard to say they absolutely must do it the next day. Feeling we had no choice, we said okay. Then a few hours later they entered the room anyway instead of waiting, and I had to ask them and call reception yet again, while sick, to wait until the next day when I'm hopefully better. This whole incident felt extremely odd and I still do not understand why they couldn't wait until we checked out.
