Hotel MyStays Ueno Iriyaguchi

This was my second time staying at the property. The staff were helpful and efficient. For Tokyo, the room size is good. I was pleased overall, however I was less satisified on this trip than before. Previously, the weather had been excellent, but this time it rained heavily. The room doors have a slight gap at the bottom, so there was a persistent whistling wind sound like in an old house. The biggest issue is that there is nowhere to conveniently hang wet clothes, raincoats, or umbrellas. This same trip, I stayed at a MyStays in Hiroshima which had wall and door hooks in addition to a retractable laundry line in the bathroom specifically for hanging things to dry. This hotel, though it has small closets to hang a few dry things in, offers no solution for wet clothing that I could find. I had to spread things out over surfaces and suitcases. This feels like a glaring oversight in room design. This issue aside, the location is excellent and allows easy access to trains, buses, and the subway. If you are coming in dry weather, this is a good hotel to consider.

We really enjoyed the efficient storage space available in the room and appreciated that we had everything we needed in such a small and functional space. The room had a small kitchenette with sink, shelves, hot plate, microwave, and mini fridge. The location was excellent. A short walk to the closest Inaricho subway station and a slightly longer walk to Ueno station. Inaricho station is a stop on the Ginza line, which conveniently goes between Asakusa, Ueno, Akihabara, Ginza, and finally Shibuya station. There are several convenience stores, a grocery store, and coffee shops nearby. The staff were always very helpful and thorough.

The place has small kitchen so it is very convenient

Very nice/friendly staff!

This was a good spot for exploring the Ueno area and nearby Asakusa. Conveniently located a straight shot from the Ueno Station’s Iriya exit (and not the Iriya Panda exit that Google Maps kept suggesting). Helpful staff, nice toiletries, good water pressure even on the upper floors. Several convenience stores and a grocery nearby. Coin-operated laundromat right next door. Plenty of umbrellas available to borrow for when it rains. The only thing I felt was missing were some hangers so I could hang some clothes.

As other reviews have said, the hotel room shows some signs of age. Our room's sink, for example, was not fully connected to the wall and sagged somewhat. The walls were also somewhat tired. That said, I have zero complaints about the cleanliness standards of the room or the quality and comfort of the beds and would think only someone truly fussy would be unable to look past these issues for a few nights. Though aged, the bathroom was spotless and the bedding was fresh and tidy. The sofas, chairs, and minifridge were new and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The area around the hotel is the real gem as the neighborhood is vivid. Temples dot every other corner, restaurants are abundant, and it is a short walk to Ueno Park (which contains the zoo and many great museums) as well as the famous Senso-ji temple and shopping arcade. The Tokyo Skytree was visible from our room's balcony and is a doable walk for most. It is also possible to walk from the hotel to Akihabara. Reaching the area from the airport is easy as the Skyliner stops at Ueno. If you come in from other cities via stations like Tokyo Station, it is easy to reach Ueno as it is a major stop (just be very careful to avoid rush hour!!!). That said, getting from the train station to the hotel is a bit of a walk with many suitcases, but the well designed and maintained Tokyo roads makes it easy enough.

Mostly is good even it is very small room but enough for rest. And it's near to train station.

The hotel wall near the mini kitchen was dirty and run-down. The mini kitchen light is not working and the rack at the kitchen sink was rusty. The floor in the toilet has slight yellowish stain. There are stains on the duvet cover. What is good is the firmness of the bed and there is a air purifier. The reception staff are friendly and helpful.

Nice location and good staff

Staff was amazing and welcoming. Near a 24hr shop and close to the trains. We forgot a couple things in the room when we checked out and the messaged us the same day First time in japan and they made it easy for us 🙂

The room itself is quite small, but considering the room rate, it’s okay. Staff are friendly, clean, air-con and lighting function well. There is a local bath house near the hotel, which is a very good experience and great shower place.

Good price near the subway inaricho station. Spacious room in Tokyo, can expand 2 luggages at the same time The room quite old but is ok for that price

quiet and can walk to JR station. There were DHC skin care samples available which was very good.

This hotel has repurposed an old apartment into hotel rooms. The room i stayed in was not a very big room (compared to european sizes),but clean and effective for using as a base,near by is an onsen ,👍

Accessible to train station

This property is covered from an apartment into a hotel, the room is roomy, however the restroom is so narrow and barely have room to fit a skinny Asian man.

I'm only stay here for one night because of after midnight flight arrival. The location of the hotel is excellent. Close to the station and reception open all night. The reception is friendly. The bed is quite comfortable and clean. The only thing that is lacking the hotel is outdated so the bathroom is old fashioned. Overall is not a bad stay for a short stay.

We stayed 4 nights without room service. You have to clean by yourself. Hotel.com should address this important issue on the advertisement. Front counter services very good.

Stain and Dust everywhere in the Standard Double Room at level four, such a disappointment. No preparation the room before guests stay, such as Pillow with yellow mark, Gray Nightwear (instead of white), Bathroom amenities with no refill ( half of each before using it ), etc. I send the complain message to them, and they change the room for us, they doing their good job. I hope they well recheck the room before guests arrive.

It was just fine.
