The employees are pretty nice but they also live in the same hostel rooms as you. This wouldn’t be an issue but you would at least expect the rooms to be tidy because they are also using them.. but no. The women only dorm had clothes and baggage scattered all over the floor and nudged into corners. The rooms also small really bad and unclean. It’s smalls like smelly socks and BO. I thought to myself How could the very employees live like this!! Thankfully I only booked two nights but I wanted to leave the very second I stepped into the room. This was the worst hostel I stayed at in my whole stay in Japan, sorry.

Perfect place to stay
This place provided a lot of information of tourist spots, how to get to them from the hostel, hours of operation and fee. As I literally planned where to visit the night before it was really great to have everything already there when I arrived.

駅から近いし値段も安いので値打ちあると思います。 長期滞在者かな？がベッドルームで遅くまで喋っていたのはちょっと頂けないがこれは宿のせいではありませんね。 外階段から3階に入る扉の鍵が内側からかかっていて、キッチンの冷蔵庫に入れていた朝ごはんのおにぎりを諦めざるを得なかったのは非常に残念。改善して欲しいところです。 近所のタコヤキバーは本当に旨いです。世間がこの店を見つける日もそう遠くないのでは。

エジプト人のマスターが運営されてます。日本語も流暢なのでなんの問題もありません。コンビニも近いし、宿から歩いて10秒ほどのたこ焼きバーが安くて旨くて楽しいのでちょっと呑むにはこちらもお勧めです。
