TOKYO-W-INN Asakusa

When I first entered the building, I thought I was in the wrong place. The reception is really small, and the place has a shady atmosphere with bare grey concrete walls and floors that doesn't make it feel welcoming at all. Despite the disappointing first impression, my stay here turned out to be quite comfortable. Even though the dormitory has a lot of beds and its definitely cramped, that's typical of Tokyo, so they have put a lot of care into maximizing the storage options. The pods feel private and each bed has a comfortable mattress and clean sheets, with a mirror and multiple power points, a small desk/storage area and a small locker. In each room, there are also shelves for storage of luggage, although it's mostly not large enough for big suitcases, as well as lockers outside on each floor and near the bathrooms. The place is cleaned regularly (I saw the cleaning staff many times), and the toilet and bedrooms were always in good condition (though the concrete floor makes it look dirty always). There are separate showers for women on the basement floor as well as toilets available inside the female dorm room. There's a lovely terrace to relax with a great Skytree view, (although people were smoking despite the no smoking signs). If you don't plan on spending too much time at your hotel, it's a cheap place with everything you need to store your stuff, clean up with a hot shower, enjoy some snacks with a view and have a comfortable night's sleep. Location is in a very quiet part of the neighbourhood but close to three train lines which gives you good access to the rest of Tokyo as well as direct access to Haneda Airport.

I met great people here in the common area on the 6th floor. The place is close to the metro station, which is great, but very far from main attractions like shinjuku. The staff is very kind, especially the cute guy who speaks Spanish 🫶🏼

1. The staff members are helpful. 2. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash are provided. Toothbrush& toothpaste for a small fee. Bring own towel or rent theirs. 3. You can cook in the lounge, which has a great view of Tokyo Skytree. 4. Laundry 300yen for 30mins, dryer 100yen for 30mins. There are 2 sets, but if you don't want to wait, there's a laundromat situated at the same row. 5. Convenient. Metro stations, eateries, kombini (convenient stores) nearby.

everything was so well thought out here! from the pod style beds with a light, mirror, folding shelf, mini locker (and big), multiple outlets with usb, hooks and hangers, to the really clean and well stocked shower rooms (even provided conditioner!). the lounge area was a really nice extra with a balcony and view. really nice place to chill out, hostel is quiet and calm. such a great location, a few mins walk from at least 3 subway stations, including one right to airport, and in the center of Asakusa to explore many tourist attractions located there! also lots of little shops and restaurants around, definitely felt like the safest part of Tokyo I visited, especially walking around at night

Very nice, with a great location! Kitchen was well-equipped, view was great from the lounge, and the front desk staff were very friendly. Sleeping pods felt quite private and were well equipped with outlets, a mirror, and foldable desk. The neighbourhood felt very safe even at night (~11pm) so this was a great place to stay for my first solo travel as a woman. I'd definitely come back!
