This is my second time staying here. Great location, accessible between both narita airport and the main lines with only around a 10-15 minute walk from each. Facilities were mostly convenient, towels were provides and rules were easy to understand.

I didn't know I was getting a room with a bunkbed-only setting. I don't normally have a problem with that, but there was no light switch accessible without going down the ladder, and there are no consents (electric sockets) near the bed. Only a minor inconvenience though, still very good value for money.

What is this hotel for? This hotel is for backpackers that want a more comfortable experience and room of their own with a key and that comfort and security is better than anything else. You also 2 showers that are shared that can be used anytime and a kitchen which is the same but past midnight you need to keep quiet. You get a Japanese bath also which can be used after 18.00 to around 22.30 and you need to write your room number to enter it. I was going to use it on my last day but I got home too late. You also get a washing machine and dryer that you need to pay for. It’s 300 yeah for the bundle. You get a eating area where you can meet other guests which has a TV and a computer you can use. If you stay for longer than one night you get the Wi-Fi which has decent speeds. Your room is equipped with a bed, bed side table and a TV. At least this is the case for the solo room. You also get an Ac which I used all night haha. This is hostel in all the sense of the word with your own room which makes it a hotel. You won’t get the hotel experience here but better than a capsule hotel for sure. One plus is that you can enter the hotel whenever and when you arrive very late you get a code so you can enter. It’s a little bit of trust to the guests. You also get slippers which you can use, two towels for the shower and shampoo, conditioner and body soap are in the showers. The Japanese bath does not have any but you can buy from the staff. The location can perhaps be a problem but if you are an anime fan like me Akihabara is a direct metro away from Minami sen-ju. It is very close to the hotel. If you want to do somewhere tho I would say it will take at least one hour to get somewhere. So be ready for that commute time. I like walks so I explored the area and it was fun. Last but not least to get food, I did not eat at any restaurants close to the area but a lot of super markets and konbini do exist. Close to the hotel you have a super market and a seven eleven.

Normally the hotel changes bed sheets everyday but here it is not. Its not necessarily a bad thing. If you want complimentary food you won’t get that either and you have to fend for food yourself. For backpackers this hotel is a 10, while a person wanting a hotel experience I would not recommend it. I love it myself as I normally just sleep and go out.

I usually stay in Ikebukuro when I come to Japan, but the place I normally stay at was full. I was shown this place for a reasonable and fair price on booking.com. Everything is mostly shared, it's got a washer, dryer, shared bathrooms, two showers, AC units, and even wifi. I booked the smallest possible room, and it is small, but you get what you pay for, and I honestly didn't mind. There's a small TV, a foldable table, a small mirror, and a little dresser to place your belongings when it gets backed up. The walls are very thin, so you can hear everything going on, but if that doesn't bother you, then this could be your next place to stay. If it does bother you, they do offer free earplugs upon arrival. Another very small thing too is that the wifi can be inconsistent at times, and when you shower, you have to constantly turn the shower off as there is a limit. I personally didn't mind since I had a pocket wifi and I try and limit my water usage, but just a small little thing to consider. The staff was also very accommodating, spoke very good English, and they even accepted packages when I ordered mail. It's got a computer, a fairly spacious recreational area, and I met some pretty friendly people during my 2-3 week stay in this hotel. Something that I do appreciate is that they give you a passcode outside of business hours so that you can stay out late and go out unlike some places with strict curfews. I'd recommend this for budget travelers who don't mind sharing bathrooms and showers with other travelers. Thanks again for making my stay so memorable. I definitely would like to book with you guys again.

Getting a private room with an AC unit so you can control the climate for this price is a great value. The staff is kind, friendly, and helpful. Offering a bath in the evening is a nice touch, too. In terms of location, it's nice to wake up in the morning and easily head for a jog on the river path. It's a clean, quiet area.

The location isn't great for sightseeing. There's nothing to do or see in the immediate area. Even dining options are scarce. It can take a while to get to other places in Tokyo, too. One of the showers wasn't working when I was there, but luckily I didn't have to wait long for one of the other two to open up.

Despite the fact that the bedrooms are quite small, I was very satisfied. It’s really suited for people traveling alone or for work. I stayed for more than 15 days, which might be a bit long for those who want to visit Tokyo every day, as Minami-Senju is a bit far from the city center. Since I used to live in Japan, I didn’t need to travel daily, so it was perfect for my needs. I stayed in the common room, but I rarely crossed paths with other travelers, so if you're looking to meet people or make travel friends, this might not be the ideal place. Overall, I was very satisfied with Hotel Meigetsu and will likely choose it again for future trips to Tokyo.

I liked the private bathhouse, it was a nice and unique experience. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. The staff were very nice and accommodating, especially the staff member who helped us check in and carry our luggage to our room. I also rented a yukata which was very nice and affordable! There is a 7-11 very close by which was convenient to get snacks and supplies from, and the train and nearest bus stop were not too far away.

This isn’t the hotel’s fault, but sometimes there was pee on the bathroom floor late at night due to other guests, but it was always cleaned up quickly. The rooms were a little small, but that is normal for Tokyo. It would have been nice to have more hooks to hang things from or shelves in the room to have more storage options in the small space!

The location is close to the Minami-Senju subway station on the Hibiya line, which provides quick access to the center (an essential connection given the distance between the hotel and the main attractions). A very quiet residential neighborhood with various services nearby. The staff is very friendly and speaks English. The facilities are simple, clean and sufficient for those who want a good resting place. The price-quality ratio is excellent. I would stay here again.

Nothing in particular struck me as wrong. It's just that the location is a bit far from the main tourist attractions in Tokyo. But I had already anticipated that.

The single rooms are small but clean. I had a medium-sized suitcase and there was just enough room to open it on the floor. The shared toilets and shower were always clean and well stocked with good quality toiletries. Staff were friendly, kind, and helpful, especially Oguchi-san. A map of the local area was provided. Minami-senju station is about a 10-minute walk away. There is a convenience store and a couple of fast food places by the station. There is also a convenience store literally around the corner from Hotel Meigetsu. There is a pharmacy/ grocery store nearby, and if you are willing to walk 15 minutes, there is also a mall/ shopping centre. This is a convenient and affordable place to stay with clean rooms and friendly staff. I would gladly stay there again in a single room.

The cleaning sponge in the kitchen sink looked old/ overused when I arrived, and it was not changed the entire week that I was there. Be aware that some single rooms have a loft bunk that requires climbing a ladder. The shelves downstairs needed a dusting, but everything else was exceptionally clean.

From the first moment I was greeted with a welcoming atmosphere and a very friendly staff. After a small tour around the Hotel, the Staff carried my luggage in my room. The room was rather small but I was expecting it and it got enough room to have both of my bags on the floor to act as my clothing storage and still leave enough space to enter! The air conditioning was great and highly appreciated, as days were already getting hotter. The area is really nice and quiet, perfect for coming back from one of the more buzzing areas. Around the corner is a seven eleven for the basic needs, a small beautiful shrine and not much further a Life-Supermarket that got everything my heart could desire! The station is a little less than 10 minutes away and has good connections, so traveling around was really easy! The hotel got thoroughly cleaned every day and the private bathtub filled by an onsen was a wonderful addition and could be reserved for half an hour - was the perfect end of the day after walking around a LOT! But the most memorable part that made my 1-month stay unforgettable was the staff - not just were they really friendly and helpful with every request, they were also very happy to share information about the culture and language (as well as correcting me if I was using something wrong). The people that worked there made my stay very special and you can't have this in typical hotels. The only downside are the thin walls, but they were no problem for me as I am not that light of a sleeper. Of course it also depends on the other travelers and the location of the room. All in All a perfect place to stay for a really good price - as long as you don't plan to come with a family. As a couple it should be okay, for a solo traveler I would say this is an ideal place to stay!

Nothing really, as the rather noisy rooms were known beforehand and it wasn't a problem for me. Staff, area and cleanness were all perfect. Couldn't wish for anything more and will definitely stay there again!

This is my second time staying here. I think I got lucky the first time because I managed to sleep very well despite the thin walls as everyone was very quiet, however, this time there were some slightly noisy guests chatting in the corridors and loudly in the rooms which really does travel as the walls really are thin,probably just plasterboard partitions. Also, I think the leather slippers that are offered could be swapped out for thinner cloth/polyester ones so that they are less noisy when people walk up and down the corridor in the night. Basically, you are at the mercy of your fellow travellers and how considerable they are. That said, I've met some nice people here chatting in the common spaces, the staff are great, and I like the onsen and bathroom. I would probably stay here again. This place is often cheaper than a bed in a dormitory, and it's only 6 bus stops away from the popular Asakusa area, so on balance, a decent place.

Thin walls. Depending on which room you stay in, you can hear your neighbours coughing in their room. Beds a tad uncomfortable, but too soft.
