Comfortable hostel, friendly but very smart staff. The reviews were good but the floors in the common areas and bathrooms were very dirty. We also found a cockroach in the room. Young and friendly staff who speak English well.

The location was perfect and the staff was really nice and helpful. The only problem I had with it was I was hot in the beds and 2 of my roommates had a fight in the middle of the night.

[Overall hostel with the best cost performance]A hostel with the highest level of security with double and triple locks. It is characterized byWhen you check in, please receive a piece of paper with the room number on which the passcode is written, and when you return it, please put it in the collection box. And check out? Although the explanation was a bit lacking and the explanation of the facilities inside the building was a bit sloppy, it was an iron-clad fortress.① Passcode to enter the 1st floor late at night②EV has a different passcode for each floor③ Passcode to enter the roomEven if I explain it simply, a passcode is required to enter the room.■Floor descriptionThe entire building is not a lodging facility, but up to the third floor is a lodging facility. The first floor has a reception, free space, and kitchen.The kitchen can be used for cooking and there is a refrigerator, so it is easy to use even for medium to long term.■RoomThere are about 4 rooms on each floor.When you enter the room, you will find a total of 12 rooms (6 x 2) with beds in the same style as capsule hotels.locker in front of meAlso, since the room is divided into left and right rooms, there is a door that can be locked, so if you are staying in a group or after the check-in time, if no one has entered the room after that time, is it okay to lock the room? The above-mentioned security is so impregnable that I thought.■Toilet, shower room, washer & dryerThere are about 5 toilets and charooms.There are 2 sinks and 2 washers and dryers.Shampoo, body soap, and face soap are shared. It takes about a minute for hot water to come out in the shower, so don't be fooled into thinking the boiler is broken.The washing machine costs 200 yen, and the dryer costs 100 yen for 30 minutes.■Smoking areaThere is a balcony where you can smoke. You can hear the karaoke at the snack bar diagonally across the street until early in the morning.■SecurityIf you add up the locking of the door inside the room from ① to ③ at the beginning of the list, you get 4 points, which is an ironclad feat.■Customer baseMany foreigners also stay here.■OverviewI think the location is good as it is in the center of the bar district. As mentioned above, there are a lot of foreign guests, some of whom lie down on the terrace seats, but don't worry, there's nothing special going on.It's good because you can stay there for a cheap price. Station is a 5 minute walk.There is a convenience store within 3 minutes walk.

When you check in, you will be given a piece of paper with various pin numbers written on it.Of particular note is the security policy, which requires a PIN number for each entrance door, elevator, and dormitory door.I haven't stayed at many guesthouses of this class that have such strong security.When it comes to elevators, there is often a type of security that requires you to hold your card key, but here you enter a PIN number.For security reasons, I won't write about the input method here, but it was quite innovative and made me wonder, "Wow, there's a method like this!"It's good that the security is strict, but it also makes it more complicated as you have to enter the security code every time. Double-edged sword.The rooms were not large rooms, but divided into smaller rooms, each with beds for 3 or 4 people.This time I was assigned to the upper bunk bed.Overall it was clean, comfortable and good. The bed was also very comfortable.However, the ladder on the upper bed was quite difficult to climb (dangerous!), and I had to set the sheets myself, which was a little difficult.
