I had a pleasant stay at the Asakusa View Hotel, not without a few drawbacks. The location is fantastic, right next to Senso-ji Temple and convenient to subway stations. My room was comfortable and featured an amazing view of the Tokyo Skytree, but the bathroom could've been bigger. Overall, I would recommend this hotel, especially for exploring Asakusa.

The view of the Skytree was absolutely amazing, and the location was undeniably convenient, right near Senso-ji Temple and various restaurants. However, the beds were rock hard, making for an uncomfortable night’s sleep, and the air conditioning left much to be desired. Overall, it was a decent stay, but I might reconsider my options next time.
