Went there late afternoon during the golden week 2023 and had.so much fun. crowd mostly locals. i didn't see any white guy (saw plenty of white guys though in 24kaikan shinjuku the following day). i guess the walk to the ueno branch is more challenging from the train station conpared.to the one in shinjuku where.the walk is more.leisurely as there are plenty of things to see. 24 kailkan ueno is a must experience.

I went there on a Wednesday afternoon. It's a cosy and clean place where you can meet lots of bears and mature men. Perfect for a chaser like me. I was too shy to walk around too much, but a mature stocky daddy approached me...

I went there a bit late but when I reach the sauna it was very much maturer men. Just a few chubby was there. Suggest trying to go there around 4-6pm.

This was a very tourist friendly place. I'm in my 60s and felt fine here. Was with 4 different younger guys during the afternoon, all of us had fun - in the shower, in a bunk room and in a sleeping room. Really good place.

Nice crowd of good-looking men. Clean spaces. Smoking area is abundant. Not as big as Shinjuku branch but very big also. Come here Saturday & Sunday for best people. Especially when you come after 10pm.

Stayed for two nights straight. Just lie down in one of the bunks and someone will approach you. Lighter areas are actually better so you see how one another looks like. The men are sweet and gentle, I put the next guy's arms around me and he agreed to fall asleep together just like that.

Heaven on earth! Best cruising place I've been! I prefer Ueno than the Shinjuku branch (cruising people are nicer and friendlier, just shy at most times, just be nice also and smile :)
