Maybe the only thing that could be better is the room I stayed in, it is not fully sealed for the cold, so the AC struggles to heat it in winter

I really liked the location, and traditional that this Ryokan is. Love it. Satoshi-san is a great Host. Cozy, confy place

Very traditional ryokan

The room which I stayed at the first floor could be a little chilly at night, make sure to have thick blanket if you're an easy-to-feel-cold person.

Everything's fine. The location, the room, the cool manager. I had a pleasant stay here.

Authentic ryokan in the heart of Asukasa neighborhood, close to several transportation and attractions. Host is very kind and helpful.

Staying here was an absolute pleasure, it’s a cross between an Akira Kurosawa film set and 1980s backpacker haunt. The gentleman that runs the place has seen it all and only too happy to help. Close to most of the stuff that matters in Tokyo or close enough to a train station that will get you elsewhere, we would come back in a heartbeat.

The location is good. The hotel is nearly Tokyo tower.

Stayed in September 2023

Thin walls which our neighbours didn’t respect. Very small toilet

The hotel was beautiful, the common areas clean, very close to the Ginza line, friendly staff. Was able to do laundry for a cheap price

Satoshi is kind and helpful, and always ensuring the cleanliness of the Ryokan. Everyday, amenities were cleaned. The showers were great, too. The charm of the accomodation was fantastic. It was like a home, and I look forward to staying there again.

I'm forced to identify something(s) I didn't like, but please don't take this as an insult to the wonderful Ryokan or its kind and generous host. As I stated under things I like, the building is 108 years old, but with that kind of age you have to have different expectations than you would from a more modern facility. Because the room I was staying at was air-conditioned, and I wasn't in the common areas much during the heat of the day, my biggest issue would have to be the noise isolation, or lack there of. I normally can't sleep in a noisy environment, but Tokyo has a way of making you walk so much that by the time I was laying down to sleep, I didn't have any issue with the sound of the occasional passing car. That said, if you're after intimacy, you might want to book a few hours at a love hotel, because anything you do in your room will be broadcast to everyone in the Ryokan 😅

The area and the value were both exceptional. Additionally, this was the only traditional Japanese place I stayed at during this trip, so it was lovely to find one that was authentic. The building itself is 108 years old.

I really enjoyed the hospitality of the owner!

It was a very cool lovely place, situated in a great streets with nice local bars, restaurants and Izakayas, close to the metro, tokyo tower and Asakusa shrine. Felt very safe and welcoming. The futons were very confortable. Just keep in mind walls are a little thin, but that is an inconvenient for this type of old-school building.

There is basically no noise insulation. You can hear all types of street noises from people talking, laughing, cars driving past, etc. The most unbearable was the loud snoring noises from other rooms on the floor. I basically only slept for 2 hours, even with ear-plugs on. Whenever anyone walks on the floor, the floor creaks very loudly. You can hear other people talking, and whenever someone comes in and out of any room, you get woken up. The place needs major renovation. The toilets are semi-see-through. The basin is basically a large trough. The quilts look quite old and could do with replacing. There are large sheets being hung around all walk ways - not sure what these are for, but looks weird.

Central location with lots of restaurants and bars within 1 block of the ryokan.

house is creaky so can hear everyone moving which when people come back late at night can be annoying.

room was private, clean, and secure. owner very friendly and helpful. there was no trouble with other patrons

I like how it was so budget-friendly to a solo traveller like me. It was a traditional house and slept on the floor with soft mattress. Near the Nakamise shopping street and Sensoji Temple.. A subway station is also nearby and 1 train ride from Narita Airport. The host was also super nice and accomodating. If I ever get back to Tokyo on solo, I might stay again here.

Not used to cold weather, the washing place for brush teeth is cold.

Near to subway station, arrived around 8pm and the owner assist friendly for the check-in and help to with the luggage arrangement to room. Lucky :D
