“The host and his wife are friendly people and welcoming. Senju Tamuraya is very clean and. sparkling. All the woodwork gives a very cosy feel. The common areas are very pleasant. There is tourist information, such as brochures and Lonely Planet guides to Japan and a Rough Guide also. I needed directions to the nearest Railway station and then info about transferring so I could get to Shibuya. The host kindly drew a map. I believe he and his wife try very hard to provide a pleasant, homely experience. There are lots of rules but they are running a Ryokan by religious principles, I mean the moral rules are because of religious reasons. I wanted to learn about Japanese culture and practices. My stay was very enjoyable. Booking.com asked me about the coffee. It's nice to have it provided.”“0” 

“We hadn’t stayed in a hostel before, but we were pleasantly surprised! We had access to all essential/non-essential such as bathroom, kitchen, smoking area, vending machines, washing machines, dryer, hair dryer etc. The staff were always lovely and the place was very very clean! Everyone one else who stayed there was also lovely and cleaned up after themselves.”“0” 

“Everything neccessary is available within a five minute walk: konbini (24 hour supermarket), ATM terminal, subway station, various budget friendly food options. My room was small (by European standards), but had everything I needed and you don't travel to Tokyo to sit in your room, right? Sleeping on a futon was new for me and surprisingly comfortable. The staff is friendly and speaks English. The area itself is relatively quiet by Tokyo standards and it was nice to get a little insight into the day to day life of people, away from the hustle and bustle of areas like Shinjuku or Shibuya. If you find yourself unable to sleep due to jetlag, I suggest a nightly walk through the neighbourhood and to the Arakawa river.”“0” 

“I've stayed at the property 5 times in total. It's a wonderful place. While being a hostel, it provides all the important facilities and more! Showers are always available and clean, you have a washer with a drier, full-fledged kitchen and even a music room that you can use free of charge (with piano, guitar, drums and bass available for you to use). The owner is an extremely helpful person, too!”“0” 

“Senju Tamuraya is about a 7-10 minute easy walk from the railway station, which is surrounded by convenience stores and shops/restaurants. A very quiet area and a spotlessly clean establishment. The owner is a friendly man who takes great pride in his business. The facilities were great for making your own meals. There are several shower rooms and toilets, so we never had to wait and there's a lovely hot public bath available for use every evening between 6-10pm. We enjoyed our stay here and would stay again (my son had stayed there previously, so we booked on his recommendation).”“0”

“It was very conveniently located near Senjuohashi and Minami-senju station. It made it so easy to go from place to place. The fact that there is a convenience store pretty much next door was great! I forgot my toiletries so I didn’t have to walk miles to get some. The rooms themselves were great I loved sleeping on the futon with a tatami floor, felt very traditional. The old boy who was running it spoke good English and was super helpful. I found it very comfortable and pleasant overall.”“0”
