Read moreI stayed at K's House Tokyo Oasis for 9 days at one of the 4-person mixed dorm rooms. The room was very clean; the staff really made sure that the place was spotless (or so it seemed to me). Staff at the lobby is proficient in English enough to hold up a conversation or make recommendations for the area and Tokyo in general. They are a friendly bunch.||||The hostel is located in the historic Asakusa neighbourhood of Tokyo, about 10 minutes by foot from a more traditional part of the town and to one of the biggest Shinto temples in all of Japan. I initially worried that the location would be too off-track but Tokyo proved to be so tumultuous that, if you are like me and coming from a city of 1-2 million people, the respite from the chaos of traffic and the onslaught of Tokyoites around every corner was a welcome change at the end of a long day of walking.||||Don't expect much in the way of luxury; this is a simple hostel intended for travellers looking for a place to sleep and make their breakfast in the small common kitchen. Not the best option if you are looking for a place where you can stay in for a day if you didn't feel like going out; the hostel is simply a bit too small for that (like most things in Japan!). I also don't recommend it for 10 day stays, but whether this advice is applicable obviously varies with one's...

A very good place to visit Tokyo.||The hotel is very clean, next to Asakusa station. Kitchen is well equipped. Dormitory are small but cleverly designed. Beds are comfortable with a special place for suitcase.||The best quality of the hotel is the staff. Very friendly, they know all of their guests by their name so it’s very welcoming. All of them had very good advice for us (about the onsen, restaurants, supermarket...)||Special thanks to Miki the very nice receptionist. The best we had in Japan.||However the hotel is a little away from JR line stations. The last floor is hard to reach with luggage (elevators only to the fourth floor). The bathroom, though very clean, is the only one for two floor. It’s not enough and we had to...
