"Not the best, but in a pinch will do."

8.0

Conveniently close to everything. Housekeeper Anita was friendly and courteous.

The front door was open 24/7 with no receptionist ever watching traffic flow… anyone can just come in at all hours. Not very safe. The front door should be locked and guests should be issued a door lock pin code for access. As there is no one in charge, hostel was a free for all. Walls are thin and guests were loud, heard their phone conversations until the wee hours. Some guests were smoking in rooms so hallways stunk. Despite signs to wash dishes/pots etc, guests still left them in the sink. Again, all these nonsense happened because there is no one to enforce house rules.

"Very affordable but not recommended"

3.0

The location is very convenient and the price is affordable.

The building was always dirty with broken windows and bugs. The bathrooms were always gross, one of which didn't have a functional light or ventilation.

"ドミトリー部屋は、安いので文句は言わないです。"

6.0

観光するのに立地が良い。 地下鉄駅まで徒歩2分。 広蔵市場まで徒歩5分。

本館でチェックイン。同じ通りにstar hostelが2件ある。離れの方の建物のドミトリーに宿泊。 star ホステルは、スタッフが常時いない。 しかし毎日、昼に清掃員は来る。
