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

Area is nice and quiet, and there are convenience stores nearby and even a small Yakiniku place a short walk away. Biggest issue I had was the showers, which were poorly ventilated and had visible mold/mildew and damaged fixtures. Overall, a decent stay for the price, though the poorly maintained showers would make me hesitate to return, even with the lower prices.

The showers had black dirt in them and falling apart The air-conditioning was terrible and sometimes didn't even work for hours. The slippers that your supposed to use are at least 5 numbers to small. I was cleaned every day feom what I could see Laundry works, just the dryer takes at least 3 hours for a half full load to finish It is quite at night.

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.

We stayed in the original Kangaroo. The aesthetics were cool and the price was dirt cheap but you get what you pay for. The showers were mouldy and sheets had stains. We opted for the bunkbed and were cramped. Most of the dining/lounge areas were sectioned off for some reason, which meant we huddled on our bed to eat any food we brought in. Combined with being a 15min walk from the closest subway station, it quickly became an unpleasant place to stay.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
To start of with the good, I think that the staff that we met were helpful despite their lack of English communication skills. However, for the amount that we paid for this "hotel", it was definitely a huge rip off. To start off, the thumbnail is misleading/non-existent at this point. The lobby area is blocked off and guests cannot use this area. Secondly, the rooms are really small, and arguably worse than even some capsule hotels despite the price they charge; we booked for a room meant for three, but the room was so narrow that luggage cannot be opened, the walkway becomes blocked and it feels unfair that they charge a room for three people for a room that clearly is meant to fit one person as a capsule room. This is even made more evident in that the room only has a single electric outlet for guests to use. Internet is also unreliable, and the description forgets to mention that washrooms are communal and is never mentioned on their expedia posting. They also did not mention that their laundry amenities is not free. Finally, some of their amenities do not work. For example our refrigerator was not working, as well as our thermostat. TLDR - Room is overpriced, description of their property is misleading, and property is rundown and amenities damaged.
