It is an open guesthouse, and as expected from a guesthouse, there are many Westerners.It is recommended that you visit with the understanding that this is a guesthouse, not a hotel.good point1. Top-class amenities among guesthouses2. The lounge is really clean (available 24 hours a day)3. Each room has a number key, so no key is needed.4. Warm and fluffy blanket5. Morning coffee and donuts6. Good location (Asakusa, Akiba, etc.)7. Double station area8. There are several good French and Italian restaurants nearby, so you won't get tired of the food even if you stay for a long time.9. There are delicious cafes nearby10. The bathroom is neat11. Good cleaning conditionThings to consider1. Towels charged2. The room is a little humid3. The mattress is a bit bad.4. Check-in is until 11:005. The soles of my feet hurt because the bunk bed ladder is a thin pipe.6. There is a general lack of distinction between places to walk barefoot and places to wear shoes, so some people wear shoes and others walk barefoot in the same space, which is disappointing in terms of hygiene.Overall review: Japanese Geha is closer to Western Geha.

Cocts: please stop allowing guests to use hairdryers after 10pm. So many people were showering and using hair dryers through to 2am on week nights, let alone weekends. How is anyone meant to sleep?? Pillows were flat as anything, and the AC stopped working after the first night.Given it's not in a very central location, you'd be better looking elsewhere.

Check-in takes too long. I came to the hotel at night tired and wanted to get into my room as soon as possible, but what do you mean it takes 15 minutes to check in? Even though my name and address should already be known since I made the reservation on a hotel reservation site, the customer is forced to read the QR code on their mobile phone, be directed to the hotel's own check-in site, and have to re-enter it again. I got the impression that this hotel was only thinking about the convenience of reducing their own hassle. By the way, the donuts for breakfast are frozen and thawed.

This was a great Hostel that I would definitely stay at again! I wanted to stay in a pod for a few nights but also wanted some privacy and the Two bed single room was a great option. The room was super spacious which after staying at some APA hotels this negative space was a welcome sight in tokyo. They pods where super comfy and offered some of the best sleep of the trip.I really wish the room came with two towels instead of having to rent them. I also wish it was a bit closer to the station but for the price makes sense.Also if you're looking for great sushi check out Mino around the corner. That was one of my favorite spots of the trip!
