Staying here with my family was an absolute delight and one of the best values I've experienced in Tokyo. The room is surprisingly spacious—around 30 to 40 square meters—which made it feel like a real home, not just a hotel room. With two adults and a child, we never felt cramped; even our suitcases could be laid flat on the floor instead of being stuffed into cabinets like in typical hotels. The layout is smart: separate living and sleeping areas, plus a fully equipped kitchen with a stove, microwave, refrigerator, and all the cookware we needed. We grabbed fresh ingredients from a nearby supermarket and cooked homemade ramen and sushi—way cheaper and tastier than eating out every night. There’s also a washer and dryer right in the unit, so laundry was no hassle throughout our stay. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable—just a short walk to the subway station, making trips to Akihabara, Ueno, and Shibuya super easy. The building is surrounded by convenience stores and local izakayas, so late-night snacks were always within reach. The tech touches—like facial recognition for the elevator and smart door locks—added a modern, seamless feel. Noise insulation is excellent, so we slept soundly every night. Overall, this place delivers incredible comfort, practicality, and value. If you're looking to live like a local while enjoying hotel-level convenience, this is hands down my top pick in Tokyo.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a fridge, washing machine, microwave, and even basic cookware—ideal for preparing meals during longer stays. The only small challenge was Japan’s strict waste sorting system, but the hotel provided a helpful guide that made it easy to follow. We had one mid-stay cleaning service, and the staff downstairs were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Overall, this was a fantastic choice for families seeking comfort, convenience, and value—all in a great central location.

The kitchen is fully equipped, so we cooked meals every night, which saved us money and gave us more flexibility. What really blew me away was the price—seriously, I couldn’t believe how affordable it was.

Highly recommend for families or anyone who wants comfort, convenience, and a real home-away-from-home vibe.
Staying at MONday Apart ASAKUSABASHI-AKIHABARA was such a pleasant surprise.

The staff were incredibly friendly and spoke English fluently, which made everything smooth and welcoming. It’s clear this place takes pride in its service and upkeep. I’d definitely come back again—it’s a standout choice in Tokyo.
