4/10
The room was quite bad and misleading compared to its pictures which made our stay less than great.
Didn't like: The room was far older and dirtier than in the pictures, the comforter was stained under its cover, and there were multiple spiders in the room. There was also constant construction noise from the floor above during the day which started early in the morning, this included jack hammers and drills. Lastly the elevator was extremely small and often crowded, which made checkout time difficult.
Liked: The staff at the front desk were nice and provided amenities.

The room were smelly, old, broken, dusty and moldy.
Didn't like: The room was old. When I checked with the receptionist and we try to have to move room because it was smelly, old, broken, dusty and moldy. You can see the photos. The room wasn’t clean at all. We weren’t able to change room because apparently they over booked! We ended our stay immediately there for the night and had to rush book another hotel.
Liked: At first, we got a good room for the first check in, but when we got back for the second check in. We got a really worst, old, smelly room.

Didn't like: It was the worst stay I have ever experienced. The bed was extremely uncomfortable, making it difficult to get proper rest. The washroom was unbelievably small, and there wasn't even a washbasin inside it. The sink for brushing teeth and shaving was placed in the living room/kitchen area, which was very inconvenient and lacked privacy. The kitchen was also poorly equipped. Basic essentials such as a chopping board and other kitchen tools were not provided, making it difficult to prepare food. Overall, the property was uncomfortable, impractical, and did not meet basic expectations. I would not recommend staying here.

Questions
Why read the bad reviews first?
A high average can hide a minority of bad stays. Hotel Mystays Asakusa in Tokyo has a guest rating of 8.1 out of 10, yet 89 of its 941 reviews since October 2024 are 1–2 star: about 1 in 11 stays went badly enough to say so. The rating alone doesn't tell you that, or what went wrong.
Summaries can soften complaints too. In July 2026 the consumer group Which? found AI review summaries on a large travel site describing hotels as spotless while guests reported illness, and advised reading the one-star reviews. This page shows them directly.
Where do the reviews come from?
From our booking partner LiteAPI: guests who booked through Nuitée, plus Tripadvisor reviews. We read up to 1,000 reviews from the last 24 months, newest first. A 1–2 star review is a score of 4 or less out of 10, and the share is counted out of all those reviews, so you can tell a few bad stays among hundreds from a pattern.
Are reviews edited or translated?
The text is the guest's own. Reviews written in another language show an English translation where we have one, with the original one tap away; the others have a link to translate them. Complaint topics, such as noise or cleanliness, are counted with plain word lists from the English text, so every number matches the reviews you can read. Reviewer names are not shown.
Can a hotel pay to remove a review?
No. No hotel can pay to remove a review or to rank higher on Staylist. Staylist earns a commission only if you book through its link, and you pay nothing extra.
Why does a hotel have no reviews?
Not every hotel has reviews from our partner yet. Small and new hotels are often missing, and coverage is lower in mainland China. When that happens we suggest nearby hotels that do have reviews.
How does asking my AI work?
The buttons open your assistant with a question and a link to a plain page of the hotel's reviews, which assistants can read. You can also paste the sentence yourself, for example: What do the bad reviews of Hotel Mystays Asakusa say? https://staylist.world/reviews?hotel=Hotel+Mystays+Asakusa. The link is a plain page of the hotel's reviews that assistants can read.
In Claude you can also add Staylist once and ask about any hotel without a link: open Settings, then Connectors, add a custom connector named Staylist World with the address https://staylist.world/mcp. Developers can also call /api/hotels/{id}/reviews?filter=bad.
