The rooms were great for us. We had two rooms with two guests each. Being able to do laundry in the room after a long hot day was wonderful. The showers were large with great water pressure. We did not use the kitchenettes since we wanted to watch out as much as possible. The front desk staff, all 5 that we interacted with across our week-long stay were wonderful.

Highly recommend this hotel.

Messaged the hotel via Expedia three separate times. Responses were always given within 3 hours. Stayed for 11 nights. Two adults and two children fit comfortably in the room. Shoe shelf/ complimentary slippers and a full length mirror on the left. Beside is the bathroom which contained a sink and mirror, toilet/bidet with an attached sink to reuse handwashing water and a separate soaking tub/shower room. Shampoo/conditioner/body wash/hand soap provided. On the right is a small capacity single washer/dryer machine (did all of our laundry in one load each night). Laundry detergent provided. Beside is the galley style kitchen with a flat top stove, sink with dish soap/sponge, toaster oven, microwave, and refrigerator/freezer combination. The hall opens up to the sleeping/eating area. Two twin mattresses pushed together that would easily be the size of a king mattress and two separate twin mattress that could be used as couches when the long bolster pillow is added. There is a circular table with three stools between the perpendicular twin beds. There is also a clothing rack with at least 10 hangers. The room was very clean. The staff was incredibly helpful and spoke English. Great location. Family mart was literally across the street, Yushima station was a 5 minute walk, and the major Ueno station was a 15 minute walk. Very quiet area. Would 100% stay there again and recommend to family and friends.

Good location. Walkable to nearby train stations and shopping.
Property was very clean and quiet. The room slept 4 comfortably, though not a lot of space to open/store luggage. Just enough if you’ve packed light.
Perfect for a short stay.

We booked a room that's advertised to house 4 guests but the room was filled with beds and barely any room to walk. It should be a crime to put so many beds in such a tiny space.

The location's great though. It's close to everything you want to do in Ueno and Asakusa. There were many food options nearby. The train is about 8 minutes away.

My son and I stayed at Section L for a week in the deluxe twin room. The room was perfect. It had everything we needed (refrigerator, washer/dryer, cooking stove and supplies). The room was spacious enough that we did not feel cramped. We had a separate dining area to enjoy our meals. We loved that the toilet was in a different room than the shower and sink so we both could get ready for the day. The staff was amazing. Very helpful in recommending places and assisting with whatever needs we had. They went above and beyond in making sure our stay was perfect. And it was pleasant to talk to them on our return from outings; they became like friends. The hotel provided an umbrella to use on rainy weather. And it was a quiet location. We would absolutely recommend staying here and hope to be back again!

The room was perfect for my family, the hotel was the quietest hotel for our entire trip. We would absolutely stay here again, and if we return to Japan we would definitely stay here or we would try another one of the Section L hotels.

Right from check-in, our stay was wonderful. The staff at check-in and throughout our stay were all very friendly and welcoming - always trying to become friends with our shy kids. The room itself was on the smaller side, but it had everything we needed and we were more than happy with it.

The area is quiet, which was great for our family. A few minutes walk to the main strip and you have access to basically anything you need. A Family Mart right across the street is super convenient. The only thing it was lacking was closer access to a train station, but even still it wasn't really too far.

Stayed at two hotels during our trip from two different chains and this one was definitely our preferred hotel, we'll be back again - hopefully soon!

We really enjoyed our stay at Section L Ueno! We got a “family suite,” which was two adjoining rooms. The space was perfect for our family of 4. It was great to have a separate room for the kids, since they go to bed earlier than the adults. We took advantage of the in-room kitchen and ate breakfast in our room each morning, which allowed us to get out and about more quickly. The in-room washer/dryer was so convenient. The staff were fantastic - friendly, knowledgeable, and so kind. The location of the hotel was perfect: close to multiple train stations, walkable to Ueno Park, 7-11 and Family Mart right around the corner, but also very quiet. Overall, I highly recommend staying here!

This is a great place in a quiet, yet very accessible area.

* Great sized little apartment was perfect for two people - plenty of space for relaxing.
* All the amenities provided so this was great.
* The only \"negative\" I have is that there was no housekeeping at all - no cleaning even for longer stays (we were there for 9 nights) You could exchange for clean towels after three nights I think which isn't that big a deal given there was a washer/dryer in the unit. You also have to take out your own rubbish - not an issue.

Combini and small local restaurants nearby. Locals in these restaurants are friendly and accomodating to English speakers. Supermarket is also pretty close up the road around the corner. Easy walk to main roads with more restaurants, donkii. Probably about 15 mins to larger shopping centres. Easy walk (about 20?) to main Akihabara shopping strip.

Subway (Tokyo Metro - Yumisha station on Chiyoda line) is about 2-3 minutes walk away. Use the Exit 5 Soto-Kanda gate for closest exit.

We stayed at this aparthotel for 4 nights. It's technically in Yushima, but it's primarily Ueno. It was perfect, close to train stations, shopping of all kind, local shrine, etc. Pre-checkin was super easy, and arrival was just as simple & quick. Staff was cordial upon arrival and accommodating with the luggage at check-out. The only thing was the bed; it was pretty hard, and I woke up feeling stiff every morning. I remedied it with nice hot shower & bath though. But overall a really nice & convenient place to stay that we'd highly recommend to anyone.

Bathroom has a nice bathtub for our little one as well. No real views from our room, windows were obscured glass. Thank maybe the only down side. Other than that- good location, and great staff!

This is an apartment hotel and best suited for longer stays. The rooms are well stocked with a decent size kitchen and in-suite laundry unit. It's clean and reasonably priced. The neighbourhood is very close to many train lines. But the best thing about Section L is the staff. Very friendly and very helpful!

Small comfy room!

Location was great, tucked away from the noise and crowds, yet still convenient to the attractions & public transport. I chose it specifically for its proximity to the Ueno station to the Narita airport.

The room was typically Japanese small but efficient & organized. We were three so we played luggage tetris but there is storage under the bed. We were thankful for the kitchen and washer/dryer (detergent included). Everything was thoughtful. The beds were comfortable. They had already set up the sofa bed when we arrived, which was a nice touch. Like it a lot!

Ottima scelta se si cerca una soluzione con anche cucina e lavatrice, che noi abbiamo utilizzato ampiamente.
Il personale molto gentile, però noi siamo rimaste 5 notti e non sono mai venuti a fare le pulizie, né a cambiare gli asciugamani. Ci è sembrato non consono alla struttura. Forse avremmo dovuto chiederlo ma, solitamente, dopo 3 notti un cambio asciugamani almeno dovrebbero farlo.

The hotel is in a good location and the staff are friendly and helpful. However, the room I thought I booked was not the room I got. Make sure you know exactly what you are getting. The room we had was extremely small, with a small frosted window that only about a couple inches. If you are at all claustrophobic, you may not be able to manage. I asked for a different room, but they were fully booked. However, they did agree to refund our stay minus the one night we stayed. This was very kind of them, and I was able to find more suitable accommodation.

Section L Yushima is like an efficiency apartment, with a kitchenette and washing machine. It is spacious by Tokyo standards. It is on a quiet side street in the Yushima neighborhood, south of Ueno. There is a Chiyoda Metro entrance just around the corner. There is no maid service, but they have English-speaking attendants (English mother tongue, I would say...) in the lobby 24-7, which is a nice service.

Loved the location, near several subway lines and could easily walk to Ueno park. There were many little streets in the surrounding area with small restaurants as well. Really nice to have laundry in our room. Beds were super comfortable. The only negative was how small and cramped the room felt. There were no drawers or closet--just a hanging rack for your clothes. There was no space to even lay a suitcase other than on top of the small 3-person table in the middle of the room. Stayed with my family of 4. Great place if you're ok with a small space!
