• Xuan (9/5): 住宿环境不错 可以每天早上或晚上到阳台上惬意看富士山 屋内很有温度 -
• undral (7/5): -
• Berta (10/5): - Propietaris propers i encantadors, sempre disposats a ajudar amb rutes o recomanacions. Instal·lacions netes i agradables. Zones comunes. Tornaria a allotjar-m’hi
• KANG HSUN (7/5): - Everything is clean and wonderful. When I arrived early to leave my luggage, the staff is a little bit aggressive and rude to me.
• JONGEON (10/5): 후지산을 보러 놀러오신 한국인분들께 추천합니다. - - 전반적인 후기 : 후지산을 보기 위해 놀러온 한국인을 위해 추천합니다👍👍 시설도 깨끗하고 직원분들이 친절하십니다. - 직원 친절도 : 일본어를 못하시더라도 괜찮습니다. 직원분께서 최대한 친절하게 안내해주시며, 외국인 관광객이 많이 이용하는 곳이라 그런지 한국어 안내 메뉴얼과 번역기도 사용해주십니다. - 위치 : 후지산(후지요시다)역에서 내려 조금 걸으면 나옵니다. 다만 건물 1층은 외부 식당이고 계단을 올라 2층에 있습니다. (식당에 잘못 들어가지 않게 주의하세요) - 시설 : 연식이 조금 느껴지긴하나 깨끗하고 있을 건 다 구비되어 있습니다. 샤워시설은 1인 샤워룸이 있으며 공용이기에 문을 잘 잠구고 사용하면 됩니다. 흡연하시는 분들은 후지산을 바라보며 흡연할 수 있기에 낭만 있습니다. 딱히 없습니다.
• Vanessa (10/5): - Everything was nice and clean. The staff was awesome, ready to answer any questions and give you recommendations. Absolutely reccomended!
• Ting Kai (10/5): -
• Papikool (9/5): Casi parfait - L' organisation et la propreté des lieux ainsi que la vue sur le Mont fuji La lumière du couloir qui ne s'éteint qu'à minuit, vraiment gênant pour s'endormir
• 間 (9/5): - 最寄り駅までのバスの到着が遅れたのですが、心配して到着するまで何度もメールをくださいました。 雨に濡れていたら、すぐにタオルをわたしてくれました。 ありがとうございました。 様々なパンフレットが置いてあったので、当日に観光プランを練って１日を楽しむことができました。 特になし
• Julien (10/5): -
• Annemarie Johanna Maria (10/5): Ontzettend schoon verblijf met prachtig uitzicht - Ik heb 2 nachten bij Mt Fuji Hostel Michael’s geslapen. Het ontvangst door de jonge dames was heel hartelijk; ze leggen alles met een mooie glimlach uit!!! De dorm heeft schattige stapelbedjes en een heerlijk warm dekbed, ik heb als een roosje geslapen. Tip voor de lange mensen: vraag om een bovenbed, dan stoot je je koppie niet. Er zijn genoeg douches en toiletten (waaronder 1 alleen voor dames). De wifi werkt perfect en de automatische verlichting in de gang gaat 's avonds uit, wat prettig is voor de rust. Er zijn ook fijne plekjes aan het raam waar je kunt zitten met een boek of om wat te werken. Alles is hier werkelijk superschoon en ruikt zo fris. De locatie is top: op 5 minuten lopen van Gekkouji Station en met een 7-Eleven om de hoek. Vanaf het balkon heb je een fantastisch uitzicht op Mt. Fuji, als ze zich laat zien. Dankzij de vele briefjes mis je hier geen enkele regel. En mocht je toch nog twijfelen? Michael herinnert je er graag aan dat hij hier al vele jaren woont en het dus écht wel weet. Een hostel met een heel eigen karakter, bedankt voor het fijne verblijf!"

• Joris (10/5): Comfortable and peaceful stay near Mount Fuji - I booked it as a last-minute one-night stay next to Mount Fuji, and was not disappointed! It's easy to reach from Tokyo by train, the check-in was very smooth, and I had a comfortable night. The hostel is simple but well-equipped, it is quiet and in a great location for admirers of Fuji-San. -
• Yeonju (10/5): - 겟코지역에서 직선으로 쭉가면되서 찾기쉽고 혼마치와도 가까워서 오며가며 들렿어요.사장님과 직원분들도 친절하세요.

• Ozan (9/5): - The staff were smiley all the time and it is super clean and new.
• Yeva (10/5): - Привітні та дружелюбні власники. Розташування супер. 7/11 в пʼяти хвилинах, головна автобусна/залізнична станція в 15ти хв. В хостелі є все необхідне і навіть більше. Різний чай, кава, цукерки, прачечна, камера схову,3 чисті санвузли та 2 душа….

• Fujimoto (9/5): -
• 修二 (10/5): 最高。こちらに来る際はまた泊まりたいです。 - 清潔で、オーナーご夫妻の人柄がとても素敵で、話がしやすかった。
• Luciana (10/5): - Cómodo, vistas al Monte Fuji. Cerca de la estación de tren, personal amable
• Amalie (9/5): Enjoyable hostel - Easy check-in and check-out, friendly staff. The dormitory and the shared bathroom felt clean. Slept well in the bed and you have a locker for your belongings. A good location too with restaurants and bus stop nearby. Nothing
• YUKIE (9/5): 良い思い出が出来ました - シャワートイレペット全てとても清潔で、ロッカーもあり安心感がありました。 下のベッドの天井が低いので、背の高い方は窮屈かもです。 それ以外はこのお値段で泊まれて快適でした
• adi8196@gmail.com (10/5): It was great and lovely. - The staff is amazing. Really. Always helped me and gave me a lot of necessary information about hiking the fuji mountain. I had a really great time there, very very friendly. The place is clean and comfortable. His location is great because its a couple of minutes distance from each place. I really recommend. -
• Freja (7/5): Trevlig vistelse! Prisvärt! - Bra läge och många faciliteter för att vara ett hostel. Väldigt trevlig och hjälpsam personal! Ljuset gick inte att släcka i korridorerna när det var natt så det lyste in i rummet genom små fönster vilket gjorde det lite svårt att somna.
• suzuki (8/5): -
• jonathan (10/5): Si je dois revenir au mont Fuji j’y retourne les yeux fermé ! - Accueil et confort exceptionnel ! Rien du tout
• Alessandra (7/5): -
• Phillip (8/5): -
• Chun Wei (10/5): Cosy, comfortable hostel! - Host were amazing, well verse in English. Kitchen equipment, shared toilet and bed/sleeping and common areas are clean and conducive. It is a little walk away from the nearest convenience store and train station but still manageable
• kubota (8/5): -
• marzio (10/5): -
• Diane (9/5): A thoroughly enjoyable stay. - Stayed in a traditional tatami room with futons, which was a great experience for my partner on his first visit to Japan. It is a hostel, so the facilities are fairly basic, but they are clean and comfortable, therefore nothing to dislike.
• Ivan (10/5): Рекомендую - Всё замечательно! Максимально все сделано для вашего удобства. Спасибо Майклу,его супруге и их команде,которые стараются,чтобы всем нам было комфортно. К хостелу нет никаких претензий Постояльцы могут создавать шум Во время моего проживания было относительно тихо Все стараются встать пораньше,чтобы отправиться на прогулку и для инстаграмных фоток.Если любите поспать подольше,вам в принципе лучше в этот город не приезжать,т.к. высыпаться нужно у себя дома) После чек аута вещи нельзя оставить в хостеле,но проблему можно решить,т.к. на жд станции видел локеры (если кому то нужно)

• Scarlet (8/5): -
• Brigitta (9/5): - Amazing location with spectacular views of Fuji-san Insulation could be improved, both sound and heat wise. They stated it in advance, but it's a pity they don't provide luggage storage, would be a big extra

• Riccardo (10/5): Superb Stay at Michael’s - Hostel is located at a short walk from Gekkouji station, there is a grocery store and Daiso nearby, vending machine also right outside the hostel. Staff was extremely nice and welcoming, also very knowledgeable about Mt. Fuji if you plan on climbing it, they helped us with the different busses we had to take and have multiple timetables available. They have 2 dorm rooms that fit 10 people and 2 private rooms. During our stay the dorms had about 5 people at most. There is a communal fridge/toaster oven/ microwave/ water cooker available to use. Be sure to label your food when you put it in the fridge. There are also lockers that you can rent that fit a large backpack and then some! Facilities were all very clean and well maintained, they also offer a laundry service for ¥500 (washing and drying). Everything is also really well labeled and had an explanation in multiple languages!
• Maya (10/5): - The owner and his wife were really lovely, and gave us a huge amount of information about local places to eat - as well as some excellent tips for our hike up Mount Fuji. The hostel is really nicely laid out, very clean, close to lots of food options (restaurants, supermarkets and convenience stores) - and has an incredible view of Mount Fuji from the communal indoor and outdoor spaces. We really enjoyed our stay!!
• Publof_Dog (10/5): -
• Szabolcs Geza (10/5): Mt. Fuji Hostel Michael’s - Mt. Fuji Hostel Michael’s is a family-run hostel that is spotless and really cozy. The owners speak perfect English, so communication was easy. They were very helpful with signposting to relevant locations and giving tips for climbing Mt. Fuji. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend it to anyone.
• 清人 (8/5): - お値打ち 特に無し
• Patrice (10/5): -
• Shaun (7/5): Good - Everything They bedroom light was on all night
• Rogelio (10/5): Mt Fuji Hostel Michael's is always our choice every time we go cycling around Kawaguchiko. -
• Peta-louise (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lise (10/5): un court séjour parfait - Nous tenions à vous remercier pour votre accueil chaleureux lors de notre séjour, même s’il a été de courte durée. Le personnel a été d’une grande gentillesse et la chambre était très agréable, propre et confortable. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette parenthèse chez vous et n’hésiterons pas à revenir si l’occasion se présente. Encore merci à toute l’équipe ❤️ Lise & Rafael
• Nawanshu (7/5): Good -
• Vitaliy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Abdul (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gergely (1/5): Mentally uncomfortable as someone always looking if you are by their unrealistic rules - It is at a good location to get around The hostel is owned by a person wants to control everything and obviously knows everything about everything. The hostel is full with notes and signs about what and how to do things, this is even worse that any other hostels I have visited in the last 20 years in asia. There is absolutely no hospitality or friendliness just rules and guideleines. The staff has the same attitude as the owner. This place is the perfect example what modern tourism has become. Only exists because it relatively cheap, good location and there is no shortage of tourists so they can do whatever they want. To be there feels like the best you can do is not even come just leave the money at the door so they don’t have to deal with the hassle. Despite all the positive feedback someone had to write the truth.
• Tuan (7/5): Good - Good location, helpful staff, clean bathroom. The hostel is not soundproof at all. There are multiple private rooms but we unluckily got the one between the dorms and the bathrooms and we heard every footstep and discussion in the lobby or the room next to us. Furthermore, quiet time only after 12pm is just too late, especially when it is a town where waking up early for hikes etc is needed. It seems that the dorms are the better option. Moreover, you get a lot of messages before arriving, a bit too excessive.
• Hester (6/5): Pleasant -
• Agrawal (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location, cozy rooms with all basic amenities
• Maria (9/5): Superb - Small cute hostel with all the necessary facilities. good for exploring the area around Fuji. very nice and friendly staff that gave us recommendations for dinner and how to get to the nearest area for walking.
• Bo (6/5): Pleasant - Location The room is too clouded. The two level bunk bed make squeak sounds that disturbing my sleeps.
• Jemma (8/5): Very good -
• Ben (8/5): Very good -
• Niklas (8/5): the good rating is for everyone on site, except the owner - Great location with a great view, very clean, and extremely friendly staff. The beds were comfortable, and the hostel was perfect for a short stay due to its location and reasonable price. Incredibly moody, unfriendly owner. He was rude and condescending to both his staff and guests (not to their faces, of course). A little tip: if you don't want people staying in the hostel ten minutes before checkout, then change the checkout to 10. But I don't want to be annoyed that there are still a few people here. This review primarily goes to the staff, so to all guests: if you see the owner, just put on some earplugs, then you'll have peace and quiet. And be especially nice to the staff; the owner isn't. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth when you consider that, as a non-Japanese, he's just a guest at the end of the day as well.
• Michał (8/5): Very good - Clean, and right in the middle of the town. Good spot when visiting Fuji area. Too many beds in one room, hard to get to yours. Quite price for what it is.
• Anar (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rhesa (9/5): Nice location - Clean and comfy beds in a good location.close to station and views of mt fuji
• Kaoru (6/5): - I was given a key for locker number 10 for valuables, but accidentally inserted it into locker number 9, and the locker opened. When I told the staff about this, they gave me another key for number 10, and when I tried opening locker number 9 again, it opened. The staff member said, "But we haven't had any problems so far."
• Thi (8/5): Very good thank you - Location very good and everything good I will come back Location
• Mucsi (10/5): Exceptional - When I was trawelling it was the only low cost option in the town and it was perfect. They also offer free coffee and tea and Mt. Fuji is visible from the windows! I wanted to stay one more night, but it was fully booked, so I decided to go to Fujinomiya, which I can also recommend.
• Daniel (10/5): Great stay, absolutely recommend. - Great Hostel with really cozy atmosphere. Each bunk bed has a curtain and I think everyone is very polite so You don’t even feel like 10 people are sharing the room. Even coffee and tea is for free. The only thing I would change is to sync check-out time (11am) with staff arrival (around 10am). Better plan to leave before 10.
• Lin Oi Josephine (10/5): Best options for budget trip to Mt. Fuji area - Very clear instructions by emails after booking. Effective communication by English via email or face to face. Very helpful staff. Excellent cleanliness in common area. Walking distance to both train stations and has bus stop in front of the hostel. Has hot water, coffee & tea supplies & clear instructions on cooking ramen by microwave oven. Could be better if there is a pantry for simple cooking with an individual sink. Will return to this hostel when revisiting Mt. Fuji area again
• Rachel (7/5): Good - For the price the location is amazing. There's even a window just outside the dorms where you can see a view of Mt Fuji. The bathrooms were kept clean and the staff were all lovely and seemed helpful if you had any issues. It was only a few minutes walk from the station that takes you to all the Mount Fuji sights and a 20 minute walk from the Arakurayama Sengen Park viewpoint. The building is tiny which means that the dorm room was very cramped for how many beds were fit into it. This meant there was also no room to really move things in and out of your suitcase or backpack. The common area was ok to eat but if you're staying much longer there's no room to socialize or relax beyond your bed. The sheets were also not very clean at all and could do with updating as they were very worn. It's a good place to stay one night on a budget but not great otherwise.
• Suet (7/5): location is closed to famous tourist street shot point - Nice staff, great to have the upper deck of bed with enough height, having Mt Fuji view from the windows!
• Nick (8/5): Very good -
• Kaylee (9/5): Superb -
