It was conveniently located close to Ueno train. The staff were friendly. The room was reasonably clean, although the carpet was a bit tired and stained. I think they should instal new carpet in the rooms, maybe like the carpet in the hallway. I also recommend they change the floral wallpaper in the rooms to freshen them up and make the walls look stylish (maybe not a floral pattern). They shoul also vacuum under the bed.

Service desk people were very helpful. The room was more than enough for the family of five. Breakfast was the best, taste good and healthy, and the staff in the restaurant was very friendly. The location is accessible to everything we needed, train, restaurant, convenient stores etc. I was really happy with my stay in this hotel and will be booking with them again in the future.

Extremely value for money
Typical room size for a single traveller, but desk was extremely small, even though they could have provided a bigger table. Not enough space to put my bag and lay out my makeup/toiletries. Walls were extremely thin and I was woken up every morning at 8 when the cleaners began housekeeping, even on the floor below. The lady staying next door had phonecalls every night and i could hear the majority of her conversations. Very cheap though, with comfortable bed, meticulous housekeeping and clear instructions in 3 or 4 languages. Front desk personnel spoke pretty good english and were very quick to respond to requests or calls. Totally value for money and I would stay again if I visit alone.

Not all bad choice
The hotel is located near Iron station which is convenient to connect to the airport by the skyliner from Narita airport. It's close to the Iron station too. The room is a basic one but clean and enough for short stay. Breakfast is not good but if you just expect a contenital one it's OK. With its comparatively low price to the other hotel I think this is not a bad choice.

Convenient location but old room
Very conveniently located at Ueno Station (even have escalator when coming down and going up the bridge). Walking distance to various shopping areas and good restaurants. Reasonable price but room is very old. Smells mouldy and toilet ventilation is extremely loud. Cleanliness of room falls below my expectations (as a frequent traveller to Tokyo) Would not stay here again.

Could be better
The main room light didn't work. Smaller room lights worked fine, so we had enough light in the room, though. When we arrived, the trash cans inside the room had not been emptied. I'm sorry about this hotel because the location is good (close to Ueno station) and the facilities are old but just fine. I think our stay could have been much better if the hotel took care of these little things properly.

The only part of my trip to go as planned
I had a 20 or so hour layover in Tokyo, and Ueno Terminal Hotel was in a good location to get to Akihabara, Asakusa, and Ueno. The staff at the front desk spoke English and check-in took barely a minute. The room may be small by American standards and I am a giant but I still had no trouble fitting in the room or the bed. Still, if you are thinking of sharing one of their smaller room, don't (unless you don't mind someone sleeping right on top of you). The toilets are far more advanced than anything I've seen in America. The shower/sink combo took a little figuring out but should be no trouble to anyone with basic problem solving skills. The wifi was plenty reliable enough. I did not visit the in-house restaurant/bar (as a general rule I do not), so I can't say anything about that. Likewise, I cannot comment on room service (which is offered) because I do not use room service if the hotel is within walking distance of a good convenience store (and Ueno Terminal Hotel right in the middle of plenty of them). The only issue I had was trying to find it without Google maps. This is not really their fault. They are on Google maps but I was coming out of China and my phone is still having trouble reconnecting to Google. Still, I found it in under half a hour, so if you have a traveler SIM or a Wifi anywhere app, you should be able to find it right away.

Great access to Ueno station, but not great hotel
Great location, foyer looks promising but my room (and the whole floor) was dated, in disrepair, smelly. Did not feel 100% safe, and could hear everything from the next room.

Location good, but would not stay there again
Restaurant downstairs stunk of cigarette smoke. We received free breakfast vouchers but didn't even want to go in as the smell wafting out into the lobby was bad. The room was ok but pretty tired, there were holes in the sheets. No Wifi. Lift didn't go all the way to the top floor (stopped 1 short). Very noisy from trains.

Convenience
10-15 minutes walk from Ueno Keisei Station, the terminal station of the Skyliner from Narita Airport. 3 minutes walk to the metro subway and 5 mins,walk to the JR Ueno station. Many reasonably priced restaurants within 5 mind walk. The Japanese restaurant at the basement of the hotel serves Japanese set meals at ¥1,200 for lunch and dinner on weekends and public holidays. As it is a business hotel, basic items like night gown,disposable toothbrush, shaver, scrub, hair dryer and even a kettle are provided. Definitely a good choice.

Moved after one night...
I moved because this was substandard even for two stars. The room was tiny, even by Tokyo standards and zero outlook from tiny window. No closet, just 3 hooks on wall, nowhere to put suitcase, no drawers, weird smell even tho non-smoking and the bathroom was a tiny raised cubicle like in a camper van. I'm a regular sized European person but still felt I had to back in and back out to use the toilet. Bed very low. Lots of corridor noise. The wifi was very odd with multiple wifi names and the staff seemed just as confused. On the plus side it was clean And the location was excellent with short walks to the park, the station and plent of eating places. Also great value breakfast in cafe downstairs. Just wasn't up to my expectations even for the cheap room rate. Went to stay in Shinjuku.
