Being just next to the Senso-ji temple definitely makes this one of the more reasonable hotel options price wise. Staff are generally friendly, although I've had a much friendlier experiences in other smaller cities near Tokyo. Complimentary ramen during supper time is also a plus, although the taste is average.
Many tourists from China and South Korea even during non peak periods, so do not be surprised if the hotel is not as clean as other cities with lesser tourists. Also be sure to book the room EXACTLY for how many guests are staying. I booked a 2 person room for 3 (as 3 people rooms were fully booked during my time there), and it was way too small. The front desk also didn't seem to happy about this arrangement when they found out, so do book correctly if possible.
The hot spring at the basement was decent, and the black colour supposedly herbal hot pool was interesting. Although I felt itchy after using it, which my family members also felt the same, so the cleanliness of the pool might be questionable. Otherwise, there is also a hot tub and cold tub which looked clean. Still, the complimentary ice cream (during afternoon/night) and yakult (in the morning) are plus points, but then again a typical feature of Dormy hotels.
Overall, a decent hotel especially if you want to be near the more famous tourist attractions in Asakusa, but will probably try to find better and cheaper hotels for subsequent visits to Tokyo.
Very Good
