Mi-Hotel Ueno 藏前三筋

Enough space. Well stock amenities.

God beliggenhed. Roligt. Bestemt god værdi for pengene. Ingen trafikstøj.

Sovesofa meget hård at sove på. Ingen elevator og meget snævre trapper (lidt svært med store kufferter).

The flat was very big, two large bedrooms, two toilet, large dining table as well as two living areas The room was nice and bright and clean.

Slightly away from the subway and train, average walk about 14 minutes to get to the public transport. Being on 3rd floor, you can only reach the room via stairs ( with suitcases) which didn’t bother us. But someone with difficulty might.

The location was excellent, about 8 mins walk from the nearest station, in a quiet, residential neighbourhood. There are grocery stores, cafés and a few restaurants nearby. The key could be collected from a locker, and the apartment had a kitchenette, two rooms, shower, toilet, etc. The beds were good. There was a really nice scent when we entered.

The apartment is cramped already for 4 people, in one room, most of the space is taken up by the beds. There is practically no space to store clothes and, most importantly, towels. Our apartment (102) was directly at street level, and so it was difficult to ventilate the room. Curtains are blackout, so either you live practically on the street or in darkness. Even the toilet has a full-size window with the extra twist that you need to lift the curtains for paper and flushing - with the smoking spot right outside the same window, there are often people hanging out there. Humidity is a challenge, and after two days, we had this musty smell everywhere. Found two cockroaches - put them out on the street. With no reception and the communication going through automated messages, I did not feel invited to report these problems, although I could probably have done. I think most of our problems stem from having gotten a street-level apartment.
