Staff were very kind and helpful. My only critique would be that the shared bathroom on Level 4 was being fixed and that proved to be a bit inconvenient. Otherwise great!

空調が寒すぎました。 外国人の方か多いのもあって、皆さん暑がりでしょうか、クーラー付けて普段寝ないので寒すぎて。 1度温度を上げましまがすぐ元に戻されました。 仕方ないんでしょうね。自分で寒くならないように何がは服を持っていかれた方がいいかもです。

宿の1Fに素敵なカフェもある！

駅から近くて便利だった！1Fのカフェがたまたま行ってみたかったカフェだったので、閉店間際の混んでない時間に利用できたので、とてもよかった。ドミトリーは長期滞在の人の洗濯物などでちょっと臭くて湿度が高かった。エアコンをガンガンにかけてくれていたので、我慢できるレベルだった。部屋にドラム洗濯機があり、乾燥までできるようだったので、長期滞在や旅行中の洗濯もできるので、そういう方にも便利だなと思った。

One of the better hostels in Tokyo, for the price I payed via Expedia this was a steal. The surrounding area is beautiful with a lot to explore, a 7/11 and Family Mart are located near the hostel and very walkable. The only small issue I had during my stay was the bed and the size of the room, as a 186 cm person could barely fit in the bed and the room was so small that I could even open my luggage on the ground. Other than the room my stay was great and I would greatly recommend to stay here while traveling on a budget.

Amazing Hostel In a Quiet Neighborhood

Amazing place. Everyone who works there is really nice. The beds are big and comfortable. Plenty of bathrooms. Very clean and quiet. I liked the location. It's in a more residential area but with easy train access to Shinduku and other parts of Tokyo. It's walking distance to Senso-ji, which was lovely to walk to for sunrise before the crowds get there. I highly recommend.
