Located in a quiet area, fairly convenient to trains, markets and restaurants. Main complaint was that our room smelled funky especially the bathroom. Also, we were excited about a rooftop as an option to hang out and eat since our room was small with no table, but it had no view and poor seating, plus it's literally right next to a guest room window and we didn't want to be too loud.

I had a great stay here during my trip to Tokyo. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed after long days exploring the city. The staff were friendly and helpful whenever I had questions, including about receiving packages before my arrival. The location was excellent, with convenience stores, restaurants, train stations, and plenty of shops within walking distance. Asakusa is a great area to stay if you want a quieter atmosphere while still having easy access to the rest of Tokyo. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Japan.

The comforters or blankets only 1.7 meters long which can not cover the whole body
Feet sticking out during night when sleeping
The tatami was totally ripped and stained
No coffee maker inside room
No washroom door that you can lock while inside shower although there is a shower door. But sink was out side. Combination shower and sink.
So can not use sink when people showering and people feel uncomfortable when taking shower because Only a piece curtain hanging acting like a washroom door
The deck was never clean and can not use the deck
He hammock was so old like century ago and no one dare touch it or try it.
Faded colour , dusty ……,,,,
Furniture are too old

We had a great stay at Playsis Asakusa. It was a great base for all the places we wanted to go in the area. We had no problem finding a taxi to go longer distances. There is no reception area; you check in with a live staff member via a tablet at the entry way. They were very friendly. The room fit my husband and I and our two teenagers just fine. It was quiet during the night hours. The only complaints I would say are: the room felt slightly damp (but no big issue) and the pillows are not great.

We expected the room to be small. It was. That was ok. The problem was the property has not been updated for some time. The place to store clothes/belongings was too dirty to use. The location was good, but had we known that the room was going to be less than ideal
In cleanliness we would have definitely chosen to stay somewhere else.

The room was supposed to be Barrier Free (Accessible) but a small manual wheelchair did not fit between the couch and the wall or the end of the bed and the wall so I could not access even the side of one of the beds without moving furniture. The room is too small for a wheelchair as is the bathroom. The \"Roll in shower\" and the toilet had a 50mm step and were very difficult to use for a full time wheelchair user, even with doors open. This room may be ok for able bodied people but cannot be considered an Accessible or Barrier Free room.

The property was unsafe. The top bunk bed had 2 thin mattress with one being too long overhanging over the ladder so unsafe to climb up and down for my child. The tatami bed was falling apart. The sofa bed had springs exposed and was uneven. The whole room smelt so bad of mould. Also found cockroaches. We had no replacement towels for over a week and only got new ones because we contacted them. Breakfast was just a piece of bread. Would not recommend this place

I booked it for the HUGE balcony. But Then they told me I couldn’t smoke on it. It was too late to refund.

There is a smoking area right out at the front. It will be dangerous for women to go out to smoke at night.

The train station is about 10 minutes away. That is also where you wil find the nearest restaurant as there are few businesses nearby. The 7-11 was also about 10 minutes away as well so you must prepare
All your snacks and groceries before you settle down for the night.

The room was very small but we only used it to spend the nights. It was good for the price. No elevator so be ready to carry your bags and leave your shoes in a communal area. The windows do not open so no fresh air. We enjoyed the shower and the morning bread provided. We did not use the microwave as we enjoyed the local restaurants that are within walking distance. We took the bus that passed near the hotel to teamlabs planet. The train station is also nearby but the bus let us view more of the city. Overall, we enjoy that the hotel is budget friendly.

Overall the property is good. There is no house keeping but they provide you fresh towels and garbage bags (you change yourself) and tissues. It is nice that they provide simple breakfast, a slice of bread per day with tea & coffee but imagine if you stay there for a week and each day it s a bread. We had them because we didn’t want to waste. But we saw ppl saying they didn’t want or they left early before breakfast, quite some breads would go wasted. Please consider different breakfast options and not bread everyday.

Very close to tourist area. Lots of walking distance to great affordable eats. Highly recommend! If we vist Japan again, will definitely stay here again and would recommend to family and friends👍👍👍

Playsis Asakusa was a great option for our group of 6. It was a tight squeeze and in hindsight I should have just booked two rooms. But I was trying to save money and there were 5 adults and 1 child. The family room is definitely too crowded for 5 adults. There wasn’t enough space to put our luggage and one bathroom wasn’t enough! The bathroom only has a curtain for privacy. When the neighbors upstairs were jumping and running and screaming until 2am, I complained. The next day, each customer had a sign on their door with a warning about noise. I thought that was very receptive and I really appreciated it because it made all the difference in the noise. The check-in process is strange. We waited for someone to come online and that person had no information specific to the hotel because it seemed they were in a different country or somewhere far away.

clean and quiet hotel in a residential neighborhoo

what we liked:
cleanliness, friendly staff who is responsive to emails (the only way to contact them if you need exchange your towels for new ones) although they're not on site, working AC in good condition, in quiet neighborhood although 17min from Asakusa station, close to SkyTree tower, plenty of room, lobby with kitchenet with microwave, toaster, waterboiler, utensils, plates, and laundry (we didnt use this; cant comment on its condition), we utilized the dining tables few nights which were very helpful.

what we didn't like: bit walking to stations but doable unless you're with small children, breakfast is just some thick slices of breads with butter and sugar - if this information was available prior to booking our stay, we'd have stayed else where because we were looking for a place with descent breakfast not some slices of bread with instant coffees. they didn't clean rooms and or changed bed sheets even though we stayed 4 nights. i wish this information were available on hotels.com
