There are cafe in front of the hotel & convenient stores nearby or you can have a meal at their cafe. The nearest station is around 5-10 minutes walk. The price is cheap for every hospitality i got here! Here's the view i got from my room on 7F.

“Good Budget Place”

For an inexpensive place to stay in Tokyo, I did not have my hopes up, but they were better than my expectations. There are both western and Japanese style rooms. Size is quite smallish but comfortable enough. Rooms each have AC, fridge, and desk light. One thing missing is a clock. Room cleaning was nonexistent of course, at this hotel rate. You have to go to the lobby to exchange your towel. The whole place has an old 80's apartment building feel to it, and has some unsightly things like AC ducts running across the hallway ceilings, plus just one elevator for the whole place, but nothing intolerable. There is a lobby area, plus a kitchen, as well as a small outdoor patio for the nicotine addicts. There are a lot of budget European travelers staying at the hotel. The lobby has 2 PCs you can use, though one seems to run Linux and is so old and slow it's unusable. There is also a large TV and many Japan travel books/pamphlets you can read. The lobby and each floor has a microwave, plus free green tea & instant coffee. The location has several good and not so good points. It's about a 10 minute walk south of Minami-Senju Station in the northwest part of Tokyo. Minami-Senju has both a subway line as well as JR, and there is both a McDonalds and Burger King there for some quick cheap food at the start or end of your day if you want. It's about 5-10 minutes by train or subway to Ueno Station. The walk down Rte 464 to the hotel also is crammed with other inexpensive hotels and hostels, so you really have a wide choice of places to stay (see google maps), but the Juyoh Hotel is the furthest away. It is next door to a convenience store though, and you pass 2 others on the way to the hotel from the station, so that is good. It is also across the street from a supermarket, so for the budget-conscious it is a major coup. The showers and toilet room are very clean. Bottom Line: Yes I would stay there again. Some tips: Ask for a room on the back side of the hotel - those facing the main street can get a lot of traffic noise. Since their electric furnishings take up nearly all the electric outlets, bringing your own extension cord and multi-plug adapter would help you a lot. You don't need to buy detergent if you wash your clothes (they provide it). Boarding a train before 7:30 AM on weekdays will save your sanity - or wait til after 9 AM to avoid the rush hour mayhem.
