I liked that I had my own private space, and a key. The hotel was in a nice quiet area, close to transit, making it accessible to everywhere. While you walk from the station to the hotel at night you get a beautiful view of the tokyo skytree all lit up. There’s also multiple convenience stores within walking distance open 24h. The only con is that the shower rooms were really gross. Moldy ceilings, plumbing on the verge of coming out of the wall, and water temperature never stayed in one place. Other than that I would recommend this place.

Room was fine, check in was easy. The concrete walls made the room get cold very quickly. When using the heater the air got stuck in the top of the room making to top bunk very warm while the lower bunk was left colder. Bus was convenient but pretty far from minami senju ~15 min and Asakusa~20 min walk. No way to change the location but the heating situation could have been improved by a fan to circulate air better within the room

Great place to stay. Rooms were nice and clean. Only downside is that the shower and bath areas could be renovated/updated to be cleaner.

8/10 Very good

If your traveling on your own and on a budget its a great place to stay the room was clean and the hotel is 15 minutes walk away from minami senju train station and the bus stop is not far away 30 minutes walk to Asakusa. The showers could use a face lift but overall the kangaroo hotel was a good experience. Clean bed and very affordable.

the price point for this hotel was great, you could walk to Senso-ji within 20 - 25 minutes, the room itself is simple but fine, has everything you need, the bed is ok for a few nights I wouldn't recommend for a longer stay. The bathrooms definitely need a proper clean or renovation, it is an odd setup with toilets on floor 1 and 2 and the showers only on the ground floor. All in all for a short stay it didn't matter to much, but this is a simple stay and you get what you pay for.

Room was great, the ladder was the only rough thing about the room, but otherwise it was a very clean and well kempt place.

8/10 Very good

Really only good if you are staying for a few days, but price is very good. The bed is only just two cushions that look like they can fall at any time. No elevator either and rather than each floor having a shower, its only located on the first floor so going up and down can be a little tiring. The location is perfect though with it being not too far from the sky tree and Minami-Senju station. Overall not worth the stay unless you are there for few days or on a very strict budget

6/10 Good

I stayed here for 11 days. Since It was an emergency, I had no other choice. First week was okay, I think I had quite the enjoyable stay, with the exception of the bathroom and the shower. Shower is extremely dirty, and honestly you should get your own bath towel since they charge for it. You should be well prepared and have your own stuff ready unless you wanna pay for it. This is also, the worst place to get sick, especially in the winter. Have an extra set of clothes ready, and a blanket. Other than that, I think you should be fine. Oh, but if you're carrying a heavy and/or big luggage, They only have stairs here, and it's pretty narrow to climb up with it, so be very careful. I think this place otherwise, is a very good place to stay for a short period of time, like 3 to 5 days. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, with the exception of the bathroom being shared, and the shower as well.

The location is okay, close to the skytree Tokyo... however the hotel stairs is very narrow and no elevator and the room is tiny and no room for luggage even in the room, my backpack has to stay on bed. The staff was nice to allow us to leave the luggage there before the check in hour. The bed is uncomfortable, the whole floor is sharing one bathroom area. we booked 2 nights however I had to change to another place and simply forgot about the money I paid for the 2nd night. I didn't feel like wanting to shower after a hot humid sweaty day in the Tokyo summer...There's a tin box in the room will a long rope that can be used for one to escape from window in case of fire. It might be a good thing however looks pretty scary though. I feel like maybe need to act 007 one night. Don't feel safe due to the super narrow stairs. Would not recommend it unless you really want to save money. I would not stay there again for sure no matter what.
