ASAKUSA - My Go To Location to Stay in Tokyo

I personally love Tokyo and if I had a spot to stay in each time it def had to be in Asakusa! I find that they have a lot of culture, food, shopping to do here! We stayed in B:Conte which is so close to Don quijote and so close to many shopping streets!

It’s a one stop subway ride to sky tree and a two stop subway ride to Akihabara. Subway stations could be like a five minute to ten minute walk depending on where you go so I don’t think it’s that bad.
