Cool, Oak Hotel is also in Asakusa (but on the other side of Asakusa), it's like 5-10min from Ueno Station.

Yeah, I didn't use my credit card there, but I will this time, because one of the hotels that i'm staying accept credit cards, so that's easier. But for shops, I just did what others recommended: use cash. and if you don't know the coins that well, just give bills, and let them sort them out. Having some change is very handy when you need to buy tickets for subway/train (they are always like 130-190yen, almost never round numbers).

Oh, I didn't know you also need to take off your shoes for dressing rooms too, but I can understand why I remember I had to do it in an internet cafe (bagus gran cyber cafe)
