Guest Reviews
- Cecilia (8/5): - Room is small, but tidy and clean. Shop and subway station nearby. Friendly staff.
- 潤一 (8/5): - 素泊りなら最高。近所美味しい店いっぱいだから。 煩わしくないのがいいところ。
- Km (6/5): - We stayed in the Japanese Annex room for 3 nights. The room was clean no doubt but it was rather musky so we had to open the windows to air it. The fact that it was next to the outdoor laundry area, even with closed windows, you could hear people chatting while doing their laundry. Amenities were basic as this is afterall a hostel. The saving grace is the superb location which is close to the train station, restaurants and shopping district.
- Jamie (10/5): - Was a fantastic experience in a typical Japanese house sleeping o
- Elena (10/5): - On a quiet street, a laundromat is very close and it is cheap. Close to the Ikebukuro metro station. The room itself is a bit too small for 3 people (3 mattresses) but it's OK.
- Boon Hwee (10/5): - Clean, easy to access, friendly staff
- tsz ching kristin (10/5): - staff was super friendly
- Ming-Lung (6/5): - 這次住了9天，以3人房來講空間太小，應該是2人房的空間。浴廁空間極小，可能不是每日清潔，有幾日浴缸水沒清掉。榻榻米感覺沒有每天清潔，水杯可能需要自備，刷牙喝水都用同一個紙杯，甚至沒有每日更新😳！如果這些事情不在意，這裏的地點與環境確實很棒。
- akane (6/5): 安いお宿 - 安くて助かりました。 接客も良いです。 お客は海外の方が多いです。 シャワー室マットが無く…他の人が使った後は 足元が水たまりでした。 部屋は暖房があり暖かいですが通路が寒いですね。
- HYANGLIM (8/5): - 역에서 가깝고 가격이 저렴합니다. 세탁이 가능해 장기여행에 도움이 많이 되었습니다. 스텝들이 친절합니다.
- Nina (10/5): - Staff was kind, hostel and room was very clean. Area was quiet and very close to several convenience stores, food, and Ikebukuro station.
- Tak Shu Edward (8/5): - Friendly hotel. Location excellent, easily to find. I like the luggage lift the most.
- Vivian (10/5): - The futons were comfortable. Aircon and quiet sliding doors were helpful. Liked having a microwave oven and kettle and washing detergent. However, there was only one sink in the house. Front office staff and cleaners were polite, friendly and accommodating. Appreciated the free washing machine usage and the relatively cheap clothes dryer fee. However, there was only two dryers to three washing machines - which was a little inconvenient when having to wait for others to finish and remove their laundry. The crockery and cutlery provided was a bit random and incomplete which was inconvenient. Since we stayed in the upstairs annexe in room 22, it was a bit more troublesome especially when carrying heavy luggage or doing the laundry, as we constantly had to go up and down the stairs
- Young Jin (10/5): - 나만 알고싶은 숙소
- Hiromichi (4/5): - カプセルホテルの方が安くて宿泊も良かった。
- Huei Jen (8/5): - I would give it 4.2 out of 5.
- HUIWEN (10/5): - 距離池袋西口約走10幾分鐘，招牌沒有很明顯，第一次需要仔細找，附近餐廳多
- Tomoko (10/5): - シンプル、清潔感あり！
- Yingchun-Carl (10/5): - Staff were friendly to provide free lugging storage and changed the room for us.
- Derek (10/5): - Very close to ikebukuro station, easy access to everything we wanted to do, facility was nice, machine to fill water bottles in kitchen (!!!) and AC worked almost too well. Other guests may be loud. But we are also loud... There was construction happening on a nearby building which woke us up one morning - didn't change our schedule and it'll probably be finished after 2025, but worth keeping in mind if sleeping in.
- Hisashi (6/5): - テレビ、ふとん、エアコンと最低限の設備しかありませんが安いのでありがたいです
- Christian (10/5): - Clean and comfortable stay. 10 mins walk to Ikebukuro station. Tobu and Seibu malls nearby.
- CHUN FUNG (6/5): too noisy in the morning - The walls are too thin. I got woken up several times in the morning.
- Ching Man (10/5): - All the hotel staff are friendly and helpful. Their service is the best. This is a well-operated hostel with amazing value.
- Ching Man (10/5): - Excellent location, service and value!
- Joanna (10/5): - Immaculately clean hotel with traditional tatami rooms. Very helpful multilingual staff. Extremely convenient location, 2 minutes walk from entrance to Ikebukuro station.
- Alisa (10/5): - We stayed in the annex as a family of 4. It was perfect for us. Simple and a great price. Great location. Exit C1 was the closest exit (stairs) and C6 (escalator) was the next closest. The grocery store “Life” had the best bentos and baked goods in the area. Also, cheaper fruit than in the department stores. It was 5 min away.
- かずみ (8/5): - 宿泊当日とても丁寧な電話をくださり、チェックインが遅めになったのですが、安心してチェックインできました。 また、案内も丁寧にしていただきました。 宿泊スペースはこじんまりしておりましたが、部屋は清潔感があり、シャワールームや脱衣所や洗面所に髪の毛が落ちてなかったのはとても気持ちよかったです。 トイレも芳香剤や消臭スプレーを置くなどして清潔に配慮している感じがとても良い印象でした。
- Haruo (10/5): - 施設は、洗面台、トイレ、冷蔵庫、シャワー共有です。シヤワールームは所々カビはありましたが、特に気にせず。シャワーの勢いあり、湯温も熱いのでたので気持ちよかった。 部屋には、ドライヤーと歯ブラシと紙コップ用意してあります。 西口から歩いて10分くらいで立地もよく、池袋で遊んでホテル帰るにはちょうどよい。 ホテル入口は夜24時で閉まるけど、セキュリティ番号教えてもらえるので、心配なし。 ホテル使用のスリッパも除菌BOXに入ってるので衛生的です。 ただ部屋のエアコンがカビ臭したので そこは部屋の窓開けて対応。そこは残念。
- Jae Hong (10/5): - 위치와 서비스 좋습니다.
- Jeanette (10/5): - Lovely hostel, we booked the family room, decent size for family of 4 with big luggages. What I really like wash sink, shower & bathroom is separated which makes getting ready in the morning fuss free! Situated in good location, less than 3 mins walk to underground subway station! Lots of good restaurants around the area & shopping! A very good stay!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 雅房式，浴室冰箱共用。服務人員親切。離車站很近。隔音稍微差但不影響休息。
- Igor (8/5): - Room is simple but convenient. Very close to Ikebukuro station
- pei-ju (10/5): - 房間設施符合家庭旅遊使用，會再回訪
- Mikiko (6/5): - ほとんどが清潔でしたが、シャワーの温度調節が難しかったのと、腐葉土マットがびしょびしょだったので気持ち悪かったです。それ以外は満足です。
- Itsuko (6/5): - Location is good. Everything is ok.
- ADRIANA ANDREA VARGAS (10/5): - Todo muy bien
- yasuko (6/5): - 飛行機が夜便の成田着だったためチェックインが24：00ギリギリになってしまい、泊まれないのでは？と心配していたが「できるだけ24：00までに来てください」とやさしい言葉かけに安心できました 本当にギリギリでしたが笑顔で出迎えてくれました ありがとうございました
- Verified traveler (10/5): 후기 - 깔끔하고 위치가 좋음
- Verified traveler (10/5): GOAT - GOAT
- CYONGHUEI (10/5): 非常乾淨 - 乾淨舒適. 離車站十分鐘還行.唯一缺點樓梯較窄.沒有電梯.搬行李比較麻煩
- Chau Li (8/5): - Quite a neat place. Nice communal dining area.
- Kwan Kit (10/5): - 便宜，環境不錯，性價比高，以這價錢有自己一間房間，空間還不小，整體很滿意。
- Soon hong (8/5): - 욕실 샤워가 수압이 세고 피로를 풀어주는데 가장 대만족이었고 화장실은 작지만 필요한 것은 다 갖춤 직원분들 친절하셔서 필요한 도움을 받았습니다.
- Nai Siew (10/5): - This place feels like home. We need to take off our shoes at the entrance. Sanitized slippers are provided. Guest can share the pantry, fridge and dining table. Drinking water dispenser also available which is a big plus for me. I do find the bathroom to be too small. I'm not fond of the tatami floor but that's just me. At my age its difficult to constantly squat down and get up. I would highly recommend this place to anyone below 50 :-)
- Hansaem (10/5): - スタッフさんが親切でした
- Bernard (10/5): - We stayed for 6 nights and we are very pleased and satisfied on everything. Will book this accommodation again on our next visits. The staffs are amazing and the location is fantastic.
- Lloyd (10/5): - It was clean and have a lot dining options. it's also close to Ikebukuro station.
- Yvonne (10/5): - Clean and host was very accommodating with my requests for ground floor room
- Verified traveler (10/5): 2泊3日旅行 - 部屋は一人で泊まるにはちょうどいい広さ。それに洗濯機や乾燥機も自由に使用できるのがありがたい（洗濯機は無料、乾燥機は一回100円）。1階に休憩所があり、そこでコンビニで購入した弁当など食べられる。環境は概ね満足。また泊まりたいです。
- Sarah-Émilie (8/5): - A good address if you're looking to stay in Tokyo on a budget. The whole establishment has a vintage Shōwa era vibe to it, and that is part of it's charm. Very clean, good wifi.
- Jaap (8/5): - It was nice though it was getting used to that the light took a few seconds to turn on
- Josiah (10/5): - Staff helped me get a taxi.
- Sam (10/5): good - good
- Suong (10/5): - It is clean even it has shared bathrooms and toilets only. It is small, but still nice with reasonable price. I like that I can open the windows on two sides of the wall to have breeze from the outside. It is a bit smelly at first when you just enter the room. Since it is small room, the previous guest's smell still in there. However, you can open the windows and let the air from the outside in to get rid of it. Service is good too. However, if you are the one that is sensitive with sound around when you sleep, I don't recommend. The room is right on street, where you can hear everything from the neighborhood. I heard violin from the next door on that night. It wasn't noisy though. Overall, it is good for the price, service and cleanliness.
