Guest Reviews
- ali emre (1/5): Never again - Nothing. You need to pay for check in after 23:00 pm. You can not make check in or enter the hotel after 00:00 even if you pay in advance. No allowance for shoes in the room or hall. Check out 10 am! Room was loud because walls are wooden. It was a nightmare!
- Elisa (9/5): -
- Lotte (10/5): - It was super clean and well-managed and the staff are super friendly I enjoyed coming back there every night. You’re just a walk away from Asakusa and Sensoji Temple, and can easily take the metro to Shibuya/Shinjuku from Kuramae Station.
- HENDRIK (9/5): -
- 浩雋 (10/5): - 住宿價格非常划算,整體環境也滿乾淨的,位置距離車站也不會太遠,大約都10min以內的路程!
空間雖然不大,但是早上比較沒人的時候,攤開行李箱整理是沒問題的!
因為床是木製的上下舖,在床上移動時難免會發出一些聲響,但畢竟是hostel,我想大家給都能接受的!
整體來說體驗非常良好!
- Dennis (10/5): -
- Mystory (7/5): Passable - Personnel gentil, accueillant.
Très propre et moderne. Matelas et oreiller pas confortables du tout. Ils changent tout le temps le code d’accès et oublient de le montionner , faut toujours penser à checker son mail.
- RYOKO (8/5): - 女性専用パウダールームがあった点 部屋に鏡があるとなお良かった
- Natalí (10/5): -
- Tanya (8/5): -
- Luke (8/5): - Check-in was great and the staff is very nice. wifi is good and the area is good too. The showers were nice and the bathroom too. I would go again for sure. They speak very good English. 8/10 experience. The beds were very hard, and I was sleeping on the bottom bunk, which meant i could hear everything the person above me was doing. It would help if the beds were more secure. also there were many Chinese people who were very noisy, but i know you can't do anything about that.
- Natalí (10/5): Very good - The staff was super kind, they helped me with a flight issue even it didn’t have to do with them, I’m very thankful. The place was clean and tidy Everything was good
- Makiko (7/5): -
- Valeria (10/5): Lovely stay in Tokyo - Great location, nice personnel, clean and comfy rooms, good value for money and lovely community
- chia yuan (9/5): 第二次入住了,整體經驗都很好,員工很親切, - 入住女生六人宿舍房,房間可放大型行李,空間充足,整理行李很方便,衛浴都很乾淨整潔 沒有
- Hidemasa (7/5): -
- ananya (9/5): Super clean and conveniently located near Kuramae eki. - The bed, room and bathrooms were super clean. I couldn't find a USB plug for the fan.
- Ishibashi (10/5): -
- Benjamin (6/5): - L'établissement est très propre et bien placé. Le prix de la nuit est exorbitant, impossible d'avoir un check-in après 23h, un personnel peu compréhensif sur lequel il a fallu s'énerver mais qui a finalement concédé ma demande mais non sans efforts.
- Vishal Jagdishkumar (7/5): - I was few minutes late for checkout and they charged extra money even though their operations were not affected. I understand I was under their rules. But they can be considerate considering no other person came until then. Their cleaning time was not affected. I think they could be a bit leaner on that front. Hostels are meant to be a bit chill vibe. This hostel was more like jail. It's all about rules, do this do that.. very restrictive hostel in general.

- Sritama (6/5): - The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was extremely small. I had no space at all to open my suitcase. I had one suitcase and one small backpack and I travelled alone. And that room was supposed to be for two people if I am not mistaken. For that room size, I feel I overpaid.
- Zoé (8/5): -
- Juliette (8/5): - Le personnel est très agréable et arrangeant, l’emplacement est dans un quartier sympa Juste les bagages n’ont pas de casiers donc il faut faire confiance et peu de place pour mettre ses affaires. Et on entend tout chez les voisins donc prenez des boules quies

- Elinda (10/5): Amazing and kindly staff!! 😊 always very helpful - Tranquillo, accogliente, molto pulito
- Liam (8/5): - Location, staff spoke english well not a lot of common room, which was usually taken up by staff themselves
- Martin Alexander (8/5): Super - Ja, va sehr liebes und hilfsbereites Personal

- Ana Eugenia (10/5): Great place - The personnel is attentive and knowledgeable. The location is extraordinary whether you come/go from Narita or Haneda. I found the installations clean every time and the design is well executed.
- Constance (8/5): -
- Lucy (10/5): - The location was nice, very close to the subway. Also, everything was very clean, the dorm and the bed were spacious, and the bathroom was really good too. The staff were friendly. The other people staying in the dorm were quiet and respectful. I also liked the small kitchen/communal space in the cafe downstairs. I would stay here again! The dorm beds creaked loudly every time you moved, which was a bit awkward when trying to be quiet and mindful of the other guests.
- Achraf (10/5): - I had an amazing stay at this hostel! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and they made me feel comfortable from the first moment. Their English was very good, which made communication super easy.
Everything was clean, well-organized, and the atmosphere was friendly. I also felt special being the first Moroccan guest they hosted 😊
Thank you for such a warm experience I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting
- Ömer faruk (10/5): - Çok nazikler her konuda yardımcı oluyorlar
- Achraf (10/5): -
- Linzi (6/5): Felt expensive for what was offered. - Nice location and very friendly, helpful staff. The room was extremely small—more like a shoebox than a proper hotel room. Unfortunately, our room was located right next to the bathroom and laundry area, and noise was a big issue. On two separate nights, guests were using a hair dryer at midnight and 1am, and on another night someone was doing laundry at 2am, which woke me up. Overall, it made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. Even though the price was on the cheaper side for Tokyo, it still felt expensive for what was offered.
- JU HSUAN (6/5): - 地點不錯,距離藏前站很近 背包房的隔音很不好,且下層的室友稍微挪動就會讓整個床明顯感受到晃動,難以入睡。
- Benjamin (6/5): Bon emplacement et personnel gentil, mais équipements qui laissent à désirer - L'emplacement est très bien et le personnel très gentil et affable. Le manque d'isolation phonique. La propreté des douches communes. La limitation des douches et toilettes à certains genres laissant l'autre genre peu accessible.
Le référencement de l'hostel comme lieu offrant des chambres avec salle de bain "privatives" est ambigu voire mensonger, puisque les salles de bains ne sont pas privatives à une chambre mais à un étage, qui de surcroit est spécifique à un genre. Ayant eu conscience de cette "subtilité" nous n'aurions pas choisi cet établissement.

- Sasaki (8/5): 雨の東京 - 場所が駅から近い。 雨の中で、見つけづらかった。
- Chioma (10/5): Great hostel in Tokyo, very well located with easy access to the metro and city connections. Perfect for exploring the c - • Friendly and helpful staff
• Very clean and well-maintained
• Excellent location near a major metro station, convenient for getting around Tokyo
• Comfortable and hassle-free stay Honestly, nothing to complain about

- Marta (10/5): Genial! - Ya estuvimos en una habitación compartida. Y esta vez fuimos a la privada. Muy cómodo. Baños limpios. Y el personal siempre super amable!! Poco espacio en la habitación privada para dejar tus cosas

- Papadopoulos (1/5): Worst experience ever in a hostel - It was relatively clean but that’s the case with almost every place in Japan Everything. From the photos you can’t understand that they are 14 people rooms. You assume that is maximum 6 people per room. And also when you book they don’t specify the number of residents at each room and I am quite sure it’s on purpose. My bad as well, that I didn’t email them to ask before I book it.
Hostels usually have a place that you can chill and meet other travellers. This hostel was far away from it. This place is supposed to be a cafeteria in the ground floor. I guess the hostel and the cafeteria are under the same ownership.
They don’t give you a card to access the building and the room but just a password which changes every Monday. Very far from safe even if it’s Japan.
Also, you don’t have a locker for you luggage like every hostel. They have a small area in the room that 14 people have to fit their luggage there unlocked. They have a paper saying that they apologize for the small space and the inconvenience that they cause but I am wondering for how long it has been like that. Maybe reduce the number of beds at each room so there is space for a locker for each resident? But no, they want to fit as many people as possible in a from for maximizing their profit.
I was supposed to stay 4 nights there but I after 2 nights I booked a new hostel and I was wondering why I booked that initially. They were options that were cheaper, in a better location and being in rooms with a reasonable number of residents.
I wouldn’t suggest to stay at this property

- M. (8/5): Prima locatie, fantastisch personeel! - Het personeel was echt geweldig, super vriendelijk en behulpzaam!! De slaapzaal heeft wel wat verbeterpuntjes. Als je het bovenste bed gebruikt, heb je totaal geen ruimte om iets bij je te houden. Alles wat je meeneemt valt heel makkelijk naar beneden. Je hebt veel last van het licht van de andere bedden, omdat het geen afgesloten ruimte is.
- Nils (8/5): -
- Stella (9/5): Aesthetic stay in Asakusa - I loved the location and how nice the people working there were. The rooms were clean and the vibes and aesthetic was amazing 😍 I loved how well organised everything was It was a little bit tight in space leading to sometimes having some trouble with the managing of space in the common rooms

- Katja (7/5): Nett, gut gelegen, Einrichtung unpraktisch. - Gut gelegen. Praktische Nähe zu vielen U-Bahn-Linien. Super nettes Personal. Gute Englisch-Kenntnisse. Zimmer Mega winzig. Einer musste raus, damit der andere seinen Rucksack packen konnte.
Unpraktische Einrichtung. Im Zimmer lediglich zwei Haken, null Ablagemöglichkeiten. Ein einfaches Wandregal hätte unglaublich geholfen.

- Joao (10/5): -
- Rachel (10/5): Nicest hostel ever! Lovely staff 🥰 - The nicest people you could ever meet are running this place! So helpful and friendly, it has a really good vibe. Everything is super organised and spotlessly clean with clear instructions. Beds are comfortable and there is everything there you could need. Really good value money and a perfect location so near the subway. I wish I could have stayed longer! Thank you for a fantastic stay. I liked everything. If you stay in the dorm, I recommend opening the window a bit at bedtime coz it got very stuffy in there with condensation running down the windows if they’re closed but they do open :-)
- Hiroto (10/5): - ベリーグッド なってぃんぐー
- Schatz (9/5): - The staff were lovely, the beds were quite comfortable, and the location was about 18 minutes from Asakusa Temple. It was a great stay!
- Lukas Tamašiūnas (10/5): -
- Aidan (10/5): Lovely staff, super clean facilities, great location and very reasonably priced - Very clean rooms and super friendly staff
- Elvio (9/5): -
- 熊谷mutusko (2/5): - いい点はなかったです。 スーツケース開けられた形跡が有るので、とても危険なホテルです。二度と泊まらないです。金庫も細工されていて危険なホテルです。
- Richard Adrian Valentin (1/5): -
- My (8/5): - Near asakusa st, they took my bag for before check in so i could explore the area. There is a full kitchen to use with burners, microwave kettle etc. Clean and comfy No slippers to use

- Janyce (8/5): Great place to stay, enjoyed meeting good people. - Staff are helpful and friendly. Didnt like not been able to stretch on the rooftop.
- Agustín Claro (8/5): -
- Riley (8/5): - Most things were great. Everything was easy and love the complmentary earplugs and stuff in bathroom. Only things we didnt like was the lack of space and the room had nowhere to store our bags it was very messy system. Also the bunk beds were a little noisy.
- 熊谷mutusko (2/5): -
- Kaori (8/5): よかった!また行きます。 - コスパ最高。ラウンジのテーブルが広く、しっかり自炊できるキッチンもいい感じで、24時間使えるのも有り難かったです。 ドミトリーのマットレスがもう少しだけ厚ければ、もう言うこと無しです。
- Tsuyoshi (2/5): -
- 張 (9/5): - 地點方便 無
- Laura (10/5): - Le personnel était accueillant, c’était propre et relativement bien placée. Le quartier est calme et agréable et l’auberge est près d’une bouche de métro. On as la possibilité de mettre de la nourriture au frais et de laver nos vêtements sur place. Rien, tout était ok
- Henry (1/5): Awful experience horrible customer service. - Not much DO NOT STAY. When I went to go check in I was told I needed to change rooms half way through my stay and I wouldn’t have access to a room between 10am and 3pm of that day. I had no prior warning to this before check in or when I booked. They were moving a whole dormitory room from one floor to another due to an inspection. When I complained asking for some sort of compensation the woman just replied ‘if we give you compensation we’ll have to give everyone compensation’.
When you pay for 4 nights of accommodation you expect to have somewhere to stay for the whole time. Not be homeless for 5 hours during the day.
You also have to pay EXTRA for a towel and the onsen at the property costs 4000 yen and is not included. There is also nowhere to store luggage - just a taped area on the floor.
- Asuka (9/5): -
- chaggai (10/5): - the staff and the facilities nothing
- Shizuka (7/5): とても快適に過ごせた。 - ベッドも綺麗だったし、シャワー・洗面ルームも綺麗だった。 部屋のロック式のドアの開け方が、最初よくわらなかった(パスワードは合ってるのにドアノブを握っても開かず)
- KOE (10/5): -
- Sofia (8/5): Super bien - El personal es super amable y te ayuda en absolutamente todo. El baño siempre está limpio. El colchón estaba bien pero no era super cómodo.
- hazeki (10/5): -
- 三宅 (6/5): - スタッフの説明が丁寧。 洗面所で夜中、話している人がいて部屋の中まで聞こえて来てねられなかった。
スタッフのせいではないが、建物が狭いからだと思う。
- Jesse (10/5): Good last minute booking, would stay here again - Comfortable beds, cozy vibes and a really nice and helpful receptionist, Sunny! Nothing, it was great
- Samuel (9/5): -
- Cem (8/5): Uygun fiyatlı konaklama - Konumu iyi. Metro istasyonuna yürüme mesafesinde. Sakin ve huzurlu bir şekilde uyuyabilirsiniz. Çalışanlar kibar ve ilgili. Yatakhane gece boyunca havasız kalıyor ve kötü kokular yayılıyor. Lavabo dışına çok fazla su sıçrıyor.
