Summary: Decent area, quiet, but the overall cleanliness of the place leaves a lot to be desired.

Summary: Staff were friendly. But the room setting was weird where there’s no women restroom located in a floor with 2 female dorms. The bed probably have some bugs because I got bit 3 times over the night. Although I did use 2 blankets. Room was small where the luggages is hard to fit. Great location with decent food downstairs. I would have think twice before coming here because of the bugs

Summary: Good value for unbeatable price. I stayed an additional night because the place was satisfactory. Bathrooms were spotless and cleaned daily, though girls' shower and sink area can start accumulating hair left behind and becoming increasingly dirty as the night goes on. The bed was firm, you could feel the springs, but the sheets were hotel-level clean.

Summary: We stayed in a 4 dorm, 2 adults and 2 kids, for 4 nights. The hostel was great for us in terms of location, cost, and room space. They serve some amazing lunch and dinner options there too! The hostel was one of the quietest I've ever stayed in and the facilities were all fairly clean and well equipped.

Summary: If you are looking for a budget friendly accommodation, this is a good option for you to put into your consideration. Yet, it is important to keep in mind that: 1) This is not a 5 star hotel, but a hostel. 2) You can have a bunkbed space for yourself as a private space, and other areas are shared. 3) Don't expect to have everything set up for you. (You are responsible for your own bed making) 4) Shampoo and body soap in the bathroom are free of charge to use, but others amenities need to pay for either purchase or rental. Some pros are: a) Amazing water pressure for shower. b) Pretty Quiet c) Couple blocks away from the nearest subway station d) Bed is comfortable e) A restaurant at the reception f) Close to convenience stores g) A budget friendly

Summary: Showers were a little dirty and there were some strange people but other than that not bad I heard you can get better hostels for the same value but still cheap

Summary: Fantastic location and great price. Its still a hostel so you never know who the other guests might be but still deserves 5 Star. Also has an Izakaya Restaurant in the lobby.

Summary: Like: Clean, friendly staff, easy check-in/out, very comfy bed, some space for putting luggage (not much but still better than some other hostels). Washing machine for free with free detergent coin operated dryer. Can also borrow the umbrella from the hostel if needed. Dislike: the room door was screeching continuously, making me very uncomfortable whenever going in/out since I would disturb others. Hope the hotel fix it soon. Hot water can be on and off in the middle of your shower due to other users. If it happens to be suddenly cold, just let it run for a few more minutes to be hot again. Also, Expedia website says towel will be provided but it wasn't (you have to book the room "amenities included or rent it for 200Y). Should edit this info. Overall enjoyable stay, thank you!
