Guest Reviews
- Alexandre (10/5): -
- Abhishek Vyas (8/5): - Good staff behaviour and good support staff
- Mattias (5/5): - Good location. Nice staff Extra for towel.
No locker
- Olaznog20 (5/5): - El personal es muy amable y simpática, se comunica muy bien. El pasillo donde están las camas es muy pequeño. Las piezas no tienen muy buena aislación del sonido, se escucha a la gente conversar en la sala de estar.
Las camas no eran tan acolchadas.
En las imágenes referenciales del Hostel se ve más iluminado.
- Sabrina (5/5): -
- 旭城 (9/5): -
- Josh (5/5): Good location but nighttime noise is definitely an issue. There are better options out there. - I have stayed here several times now and I have always found the staff to be friendly and helpful, and its location is good. (It's a 10-minute walk to Shinjuku Station and only about 3-5 min. to Shinjuku 3-chome Station.) The bed is decent and long enough for even a tall guy (6'4" = 193 cm) like myself to fit. I have always had issue with the noise problem during nighttimes at this hostel. People are going in and out of the room even in the middle of the night (from midnight to even 4 a.m.). The clientele is almost all foreigners, which is fine (I am an American myself), but I have noticed very different etiquette manners between Japanese and foreigners. Each 8-bed or 10-bed room has a electronic keypad door lock, which is a great thing for safety/security, but not only is the keypad noisy (beep, beep, beep with each number pressed), but the door unlocking is noisy and the door closing is noisy as well. So it is really difficult to get good sleep. Add on top of that a somewhat expensive price tag (I pad 8,000 yen) and I think there are better hostel options out there in the Shinjuku/Kabukicho area (that can usually be had for 4,000-5,000 yen a night).
- 怡坤 (9/5): -
- TATSUYA (10/5): -
- HUI EN (5/5): 這次入住213床,晚上會有明顯不曉得是空調或是不明物體的微弱敲打聲,整夜不能入睡,但同房也有幾床的住客都睡到打呼(好羨慕)。再來一晚要價近2000元台幣的背包客旅宿還要花錢租毛巾性價比太低了。 - 需要花錢租借浴巾;床墊非常不透氣,一覺醒來全身都流汗
- Thipwimon (8/5): Convenience - The location is super The bed itself is ok-ish. Ok to sleep but do jot expect much
- Luis (8/5): - Hostel wasn’t bad.
The staff is welcoming, clean, a lot of shower and rooms.
Nothing to say about the hostel If you come to Tokyo, please don’t find an accommodation in Shinjuku.
The area is extremely crowded, noisy, and busy almost all the time. There are many other neighborhoods in Tokyo that are cleaner, calmer, and more enjoyable to stay in while still being well connected by train.
- maria (10/5): - Gran hostal. Muy limpio y cómodo.
Está dividido por pisos : masculino y femenino , también tiene un bar pequeńo y cómodo. el personal es muy atento.
- Dimitris (9/5): Nice stay in Shinjuku - Close to Shinjuku,
nice, helpful staff
and very good breakfast! :)
- Minu (5/5): - The staff, the first floor cafe. The dormitory bedroom is smelly, and the common room also does not really clean.
- diogo (10/5): Endroit parfait si vous souhaitez un hôtel bien placé et pas chère juste pour dormir et repartir en ville - Absolument tout
- Carolina (10/5): -
- Eoin (10/5): Super location, budget friendly - Central. Very friendly staff. Good facilities, shower was really good. Nothing.
- Stefan (5/5): -
- Kenta (7/5): -
- Kasia (7/5): - The hostel is in an ideal location for travellers wanting to be close to Shinjuku and everything the district offers. Plenty of food and drink options nearby. There are clean bathrooms, showers and seating area with fridge, all on the same floor as the dorms. Dorms were calm and quiet. Ensuring there is a locker available for each guest for storing valuables is something I'd expect, especially in a central big city location. The sheet could have been put on the bed before the guest arrives, rather than expecting the guest to do it themselves. Would have appreciated a more substantial kitchen area, equipped with basic crockery and (ceramic) mugs, seating and a decent kettle. Water refill stations would also be helpful so there isn't a need to buy bottled water. Bring your own towel and slippers as these are not offered as complimentary items. Facilities were very basic for the price.
- Logan (8/5): -
- Loïc (9/5): - Auberge propre et confortable. Personnel sympathique. Très bonne emplacement au coeur de Shinjuku et à 2 pas d’un konbini. Les espaces communs à chaque étage, pas une mauvaise idée mais cela créé de nombreuses nuisances sonores dans les dortoirs. Beaucoup de gens irrespectueux. Pas forcément la faute de l’auberge.
- Ella (9/5): -
- Ben (10/5): Excellent - Great place to stay, clean and comfortable accommodation.

- Gurjot (9/5): -
- Hacikerimli (10/5): -
- Šmíd (8/5): -
- Jordan (9/5): Excellent little stay for people who want to explore the CITY not just the hotel - Convenience and Location Temperature. Extreme in the variations. Hot inside the bunk. Cold outside the bunk.
- JiRong (5/5): 入住很快,靠近門的床,每個人按密碼鎖都會蠻大聲的 - 離車站10分鐘路程 招牌不夠明顯
- OCEANE (8/5): -
- Shubhashish (8/5): -
- thi tra giang (10/5): Good - Cheap, near station , can send luggage and go some, have a seat for rest(coffee time) , comfortable, clean , …

- ING-HO (8/5): -
- surve (8/5): -
- Ruben Dario (10/5): -
- Elisha Stefania (4/5): Bueno como estadía de emergencia - El personal es bastante amable Las camas no eran cómodas, poco aislamiento de ruido y todas las amenidades tenían costo extra, por ese mismo costo me he quedado en otros lugares con más amenidades, habitaciones y mejor ubicación
- Guest (5/5): -
- Georgia (7/5): Stay was good, didn’t have a great sleep due to fellow hostel guests that have no common sense and pack their bags at 7a - The hostel is in a great location, good facilities and clean. Staff are very friendly. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything happening in the bathroom or common room. The blackout curtains are good but that means there is no air flow into the bunks. The rooms are very bland and not very comfortable.
- Daiki (6/5): -
- MOLLA ASHFAQUR (7/5): -
- 智樹 (6/5): - 1階がおしゃれ トイレが清潔でなかった
- Balázs (10/5): -
- Daniel (9/5): A very great place to stay if you want to stay near Shinjuku, though the price is going to be higher than other spots. - Very good location next to kabukicho and golden gai, easy to go around Tokyo from the nearby metro as well. The Cafe area is pleasant and great for connecting with other travelers, and has staff 24/7 for any issues. The beds were somewhat stiff and the rooms were very cramped. The rooms at the ends of the floor have more space but the ones in the middle are incredibly cramped. Fairly pricey as well.
- Pierre (7/5): -
- Jeppe Lebeck (8/5): -
- HIKARU (7/5): -
- Sharon (4/5): - location rooms are very small, no lockers in the room. stuff from people everywhere in the room. the laundry and dryer are horrible. they charge you for a towel
- Miho (9/5): -
- Adriana (9/5): Buen precio y ubicación en un barrio de micha vida nocturna. - Buena relación precio-calidad. Utilizando el túnel peatonal que une los diferentes accesos desde la estación de Shinjuku llegar es muy sencillo (sugiero tomar la salida E1 o E2). Quienes atienden en recepción son MUY amables, y te tienen el equipaje antes o despues sin inconvenientes. El lugar es muy conveniente para moverte en un barrio muy movido de Tokio. Las habitaciones podrían ser más luminosas, pero está muy bien igual, por el precio que cobran.
- nazlıcan (10/5): -
- Zach (10/5): Greatest hostel in Tokyo! - Best hostel in Tokyo , very clean and social Nothing it was fantastic
- Pavol (7/5): Standard backpackers hostel - Standard backpackers hostel with everything you need.
Staff were nice.
They provide breakfast. Very overpriced for what you get if I compare it to other dorms. But I get it, that saturday prices are way higher in the whole city.
They don’t provide free towels which is really weird considering the price.
- Kamal (10/5): - Best All
- Brian (8/5): -
- Lerone (7/5): -
- Melanie_xx (8/5): - Goede locatie en netjes hostel Weinig ruimte op de kamer voor je spullen en geen lockers voor je volledige tas.
- Marianiki (9/5): -
- SHIHO (10/5): cozy - 清潔で居心地がよかったです。
大学に朝早くいかなくてはならず、前泊に使わせていただきました。
- からやん (8/5): - 2段ベットがどうかなと思いましたが問題なかったです シャワー室に着替えを置くスペースがなかった
- Maksym (9/5): -
- Francisco (8/5): Good enough for a short stay. - Capsule space is actually really nice.
Location. Shared areas are not too special.
Almost no extras (you do your own bed, pay any toiletries or extras that are taken for granted in other places, etc)
- Ashna (10/5): Great location, supportive staff, and super easy to find - Location - perfect, close to metro stations and a couple of nice spots, super easy to find/reach
Bed - was super comfy and clean
The staff was incredibly helpful and kind, and the cafe space is chill and nice too.
They let you keep your luggage for the stay while you're traveling out which is great No lockers for luggage in the dorms which is helpful if you have sensitive items like laptops to keep
- SHIRSHAK (6/5): Overall it's fine. - It's affordable and located near to Shinjuku Station. Locker for luggage can be provided.
- ibrahim (7/5): orta seviye - konumu yatak güzel değil
- Yi Chen (6/5): 整體是很標準的青年旅舍,沒有多餘的東西,但該有都有;房間是要輸入密碼,每次進出都要輸密碼覺得有些不便,且有稍微有點吵人 - 有公用空間整理行李 去住的期間沒有熱水!!!
- Muireann (7/5): Fine place to stay for a few nights in Tokyo but a bit overpriced for the standard of dorm room we had. - Clean rooms, toilets and showers. About a 15/20min walk from Shinjuku station. The rooms/doors/room key system were all quite loud which meant it was hard for anyone to come in or out of the dorm quietly.
- YASUHIRO (5/5): また利用したい - 便がいい セキリティボックスの鍵がなく使えなかった
- Fiederer (8/5): Great hostel and cafe in Tokyo, I recommend -
- Isaac (8/5): -
- 家賢 (8/5): 這是第二次入住,整體上佳 - 離JR新宿站不遠,15分鐘內可到達
環境周遭算清靜,不會有太多噪音 睡在上鋪,頭頂很擔心撞到天花板
床頭燈鬆動,很難調整到喜歡的位置

- Khánh Toàn (6/5): Vị trí tốt, giá rẻ - Vị trí Không có chỗ cất hành lý
- 雅騏 (8/5): -
- sachiko (10/5): 快適に過ごせました〜👍️~ - トリプルの個室静かで、寝心地も良く快適に過ごせた。シャワー🚿の圧が強く気持ち良かった。朝食付きで、美味しく朝のスタートができました。
スタッフの方々も感じが良かったです。
- CHUN HAN (9/5): -
- Hiromi (5/5): 急な寝床の確保には良い - 共有スペース・設備が人数に対して十分な広さ、数が足りていて安心できました。スタッフさんも良かったです。 しょうがないのですが、夜と朝、カーテン閉め切り&消灯のため暗く、身動きが取りづらかったです。特に遅くまで起きてたわけでも、朝すごく早起きしたわけでもないですが、真っ暗なのは不便なので何か対策いただけると嬉しいなと思いました。さすがに朝8時でも真っ暗だと退室時に忘れ物発生しそうです。
あと外国の方が多く、それは全然歓迎なのですが、文化的な違いで部屋の匂いがきつかったです。。。強い香水、体臭、どこかで吸って帰ってこられたのかタバコの匂い。。。すべてが混ざってとても心地悪かったです。強めの空気清浄機があれば大変ありがたかったです。
- Jan Nathaniel (8/5): -
- Gabriele (7/5): -
- Shiv Shankar (8/5): - It is pretty compact Too noisy
- i (10/5): 快適で大変良かった。 - 清潔感があり、セキュリティも安心できるところ。ドミトリーだがマナーが良く、静かに眠れたのも良かった。 朝食が内容の割には少し高いかなと思った。
- Danilo Augusto (8/5): - Bem localizado, limpo e staff simpática. Colchão desconfortável.
- Ruka (10/5): -
- SAMY (7/5): -
- Claudia (8/5): - War Okay. Bin nur für zwei Nächte da gewesen. Es war fast immer sauber, das Personal war anwesend man hat es aber nicht gross gespürt. Alles ist in Laufweite erreichbar. Den Check in musste ich am Tablet durchführen, obwohl Personal anwesend war. Fand ich nicht so angenehm.
- Solomon (5/5): -
- Robert (8/5): Great value, clean, comfortable. - Easy to come and go and short distance from the train station/metro. Not a very social hostel but excellent for a good value accommodation for a solo traveler.
- Jérémy (7/5): -
- Alex (5/5): average - i liked the cool bar zone downstairs, quite tight but made it more collegiate. the stupid entry codes for rooms, totally unnecessary and impossible to read and work
- Maks štempihar (10/5): -
- Nette (7/5): -
- Niall (7/5): Great safe haven after a night of drinking - I turned up late for check-in but this wasn't an issue. I also checked out very early without issue.
I didn't utilise anything other than the toilet and bed but found it perfectly ample for what I was asking of it. I was after somewhere safe to sleep for the night at short notice and wasn't let down. I have no complaints.
- David (5/5): - Location Unreasonable price
Dirty facilities
