    There was nothing we didn’t like. It was all very good in a calm, low key way.

    It was a very quiet location with good sized bedroom. Very clean. Walkable to Ueno Park. On good public transport. A very helpful book of information for guests. No restaurant at hotel but bananas and snacks always available.

    The hotel staff is very nice. Location is also great – the hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood close to Ueno Park and a train station, so you can get a good night's sleep and still have easy access to most places in Tokyo.

    Everything in the room was super clean. There’s a self-service little tuck shop available in the lobby. The bed was super comfy with Netflix on TV after a long day of walking around Tokyo. I stayed on the ground floor and somehow there was absolutely no noise at night, and minimal sounds in the morning.

    There was a bit of an unpleasant smell coming from the AC but it wasn’t too big of a deal

    I really liked the area where the hotel is located, it is also close to the Yamanote line train station which is very convenient. The hotel staff were nice and accommodating. The room had everything that we needed and also the laundry service that the hotel offered was cheap and done well

    Not much breakfast, we mostly ate out so it wasn't a problem, but this is something they could expand upon.

    Location, room and staff were all great. They spoke English and provided really great service, we could even leave our bags when we checked out. We will definitely stay here again when in Tokyo.

    I didn’t realize immediately that the room doors had actual locks, and not the typical “lock after you leave” hotel locks.

    It was very close to the train station and some decent food. The room was very spacious, the bed was comfortable, and the lady at the front desk was very kind!

    NOTHING! I LIKED EVERYTHING!

    I like everything of this hotel. First of all, a very warming welcome with an apple juice and sake, they treat you like a member of their family not just like a guest, always ready for all your needs. Room was perfectly clean,, large and a so comfortable bed, I have a perferct sleep.. Location perfect just 1 min walk from JR station, 15 mins from Ueno and all amenities. They speak a very good English, so no problem if you can't speak Japanese.

    Some guests were noisy late at night but that was no fault of the hotel.

    Very clean hotel and helpful/ friendly staff. Walking distance to train station and places to eat. Assisted us in booking a fantastic sushi restaurant and subsequently retrieving a bag we left behind.

    Barn is close to the Uguisudani line which is 1 stop from Ueno. It’s in a nice quaint little neighbourhood close to Asakusa. Room was clean and sufficient for 2 persons. Happy that it has Netflix for guests. Appreciate the common use cables and adapters as well.

    Loved our stay here. The room was perfectly sized and situated for our needs. The staff were great, as were the facilities. The hotel is a short walk from Uguisudani station, which is well connected to the rest of Tokyo. It’s not a super touristy area, which might put off some people who want to stay in a hotel and area that is built around their needs, but we really liked the authenticity of the hotel and the surroundings. Supermarket and convenience stores also nearby, which was useful.

    No communal seating space to sit and drink coffee etc although there were 2 small outdoor areas with chairs

    Really kind, welcoming staff, very comfortable beds, great shower, lovely free fresh coffee, plenty of spare adaptors/chargers to borrow and spotlessly clean. Super close to JR line so navigating the city was easy and lovely park / restaurants / coffee shops within walking distance.
