Liked: SOHO Asakusa was a great place to stay at while in Tokyo. It was quiet and still had everything you needed close by: two convenient stores are within seconds, bigger street with 7-11 and other useful stores are in short reach. A laundry shop is in the same house. Microwave, fridge and TV were given in my room. Clean bathroom, towels and sheets. Very good place to explore Tokyo.And not far from subway stations (Irya and Asakusa).

Disliked: No Wifi but LAN in the room. The provided LAN cable could have been longer. But seriously, is that a problem? Great connection speed.

Liked: The rooms were supplied with air conditioning (wich is absolutely necessary in the summer) and were clean.

Disliked: It was pretty far away from the Metro station (20 minutes walk) and difficult to find. The rooms were clean but shabby and the curtains were full of stains. The room was supplied with microwave, fridge and air conditioning, but lacked other more important utilities like a hair drier, a closet or a real bed. (our "double room" consisted in two separate "beds": a couch and a matress on the floor!). Furthermore, reception was always closed and we had to call the concierge several times and wait for a long time everytime we needed his services.

Liked: Excellent place...fine location..ten minutes walking from Iryia metro station. But don't try to find it by your self when you arrive. Take a taxi . Once there, after a good shower and a cold Japanese beer you will find out how easy is walk to metro station. The rooms, as everything in Japan are extremely clean and the manager a gentleman. Just go and enjoy it.

13 April 2010 Mathieu would recommend this property

Liked: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, no joke. The location is kinda far from downtown but downtown aint that interesting after all. Arouind the hotel you have a lovely market and a magnificient temple. The cab would cost 4000yen up to shibuya but you can still take the metro which would take 40min and would cost 230yen. The room are superbe in comparison of what I have seen in the hostel. Sure you wont meet that much people but for a good rest it is the best. If you have chance to go in Osaka I would recommend the Peace house Shaw as it is the best ever. Good trip

Liked: Cheap price with full in-room facility i.e. large bathtub, microwave, fridge, a/c, hair dryer. But the place is quite far from the station (both Iriya and Asakusa; though the staff there insists that it takes 10 min walk. In fact, it is quite far especially with luggage along). So, though the place is not expensive but we did spend lots of money for taxi; at least from and to subway station.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
