I booked Akasaka by mistake, thinking it was Asakusa.
It's a little further from some of the tourist destinations in Asakusa and environs, but there is a WEALTH of dining options in the area, ranging from multiple convenience stores to a great dumpling and ramen place on the corner that's open from 11:00 am to 4:00 am, to a variety of very expensive and authentic-looking Japanese restaurants (clubs?) way beyond our reach. Lots of pedestrian traffic all day and night, feels very safe, subway 3 or 8 minutes away, also a Shinto shrine on a forested hill two blocks away if you want to get away from all the hustle and bustle. Room was spacious and comfortable, great bed and bath, washer/dryer in the room but the dryer function takes for ever...
