Our first time in Tokyo and I'm really glad we stayed here! Gorgeous apartment that's central to Taito City.
Spacious apartment with a kitchenette, including a fridge and a microwave, and pots/pans and cutlery provided. Also had a washing machine which was great, and provided laundry detergent. Washing line on the balcony (clothes dried really fast in the heat). Sofa bed was comfortable, as were the actual beds. Plenty of wardrobe space. Spacious shower, and was provided with body wash, shampoo and conditioner. A total of 4 towels provided, but with the washing machine there, you are able to get clean towels regularly. As it's customary to remove shoes upon entering homes in Japan, indoor shoes were provided and are comfortable. WiFi was also very good and fast.
8-10 minute walk to the subway station. 20 minute walk from the SkyTree, which is used as a meeting point for some activities. 5 minute walk from the Sensō-ji temple. Lots of restaurant options nearby. 3 minute walk to a 7/11 convenience store, or 5-8 minute walk from Lawson convenience store.

All in all, One Asakusa apartment is not a bad option at all, but you may find a way better hospitality option in this neighborhood for a similar price or...

We stayed here at the end of our 3 week stay in Japan. During our trip we stayed at hotels and apartments. So we had an idea of what to expect . This place just needs a human touch. So many little things we had in ALL of our other accommodations that were missing here. Again, it has the basics and was clean but was lacking the little details that would put it over top. Would I stay...
