It is a hotel that is value for money. Do not expect this hotel with facilities as it is a simple hotel for just sleep and go. I like the location of the hotel. For me, the train stations are within walking distances. I also appreaciate the wonderful staff that were very polite and nice to me during my check in and out of the hotel. Kudos to the staff of APA Ueno Hirokoji. I have read negative remarks regarding the noise of train traveling across the area and was quite worry as I am a light sleeper. However, it was acceptable and I have good night sleep throughout the 10 days stay. There is also a gluten free resturant. Highly recommend this hotel.

The APA tagline of "simplified luxury" is fully exemplified by the APA hotel Ueno-Hirokoji. The room was compact but well organized. There was everything a traveler would need and they even managed to get certain room facilities like full bath, shower, bidet, vanity, desk, fridge, multiple electrical outlets, in a room half the size of a typical hotel but every bit as functional. The staff at Ueno-Hirokoji was excellent and accommodating even though we had a young baby in tow and needed more care and attention than other guests. K. Karan was especially helpful and had a workable knowledge of English. This Hotel is also quite central, within walking distance of a supermarket (LIFE supermarket), a variety of upscale, casual, and chain restaurants, AKIHABARA, Ueno Amayecho.

The location is exceptional. Various metro lines nearby. Ueno is a fun area to explore and lots to do nearby. If I come back to Tokyo I will stay in this area. Small rooms but that is normal for Tokyo budget hotel. No noise whatsoever, neither from neighbours or the street. We slept soundly. Fresh towels and amenities delivered everyday, however to a point where it’s a bit excessive - during our stay (2pax x 9nights) we were delivered 36 towels and 18 dressing gowns. (?!?!) The hotel let us keep luggage for a time after checkout so we could have breakfast.

This location is close to Akihabara, Ueno, and the subway station. The room was clean and as advertised. I really enjoying being able to fit my large luggage under the bed. It made a huge difference. The staff was very helpful. We added a extra room night to come back to Tokyo early, and Booking.com hadn't sent over the information yet when we arrived. We showed them our reservation on the app - and they made it work so we could check-in on time. The staff is very nice and helpful.

This was a comfortable facility to stay in other than some issues I already knew about. The bathroom and room was very compact but I was expecting that. Good AC, good lighting, a fridge for keeping konbini drinks or snacks.

Location is excellent for those for those looking to do much around Akihabara like me. Close to multiple train stations including Akihabara station. The staff is very friendly and helpful, one of them was even kind enough to call the Pepper Parlor cafe to book me a table.

I had paid extra for breakfast, and it was great. They had scramble and pancakes with Maple syrup. I prefer to start the day off with a good breakfast before immersing into the city sights and the miles of walking. The location is walking distance from Akihabara and Don Quiote. They gave us the top floor which was fantastic. Can't beat the location. Front desk spoke good English and were quite helpful.

The location of the hotel is great, as it is within walking distance to many places of interest around Ueno and Akihabara, including the local markets, eateries, convenience stores, train stations, etc. The rooms were clean and comfy. Staff were helpful.

The room had all the necessary amenities and a double bed, which for one person is great but might be small for two. The staff were very accompanying and helpful as well. Location is good if you know how to navigate Tokyo, as this is not the central part of Tokyo so you need to take the underground if you want to go to Shinjuku or Shibuya. I personally chose this area because it's not as loud and crowded.

Walking distance and perfectly placed in between Ueno and Akihabara. Clean rooms and friendly front desk staff. Even though they didn't have a coin laundry, there is a nearby new coin laundry place accross the road.
