Blue Hour Kanazawa,When I arrived I forgot that there was no elevator and I was disappointed! But we arrived at the hotel and the receptionist's welcome was very professional and warm with a smile! She showed me around and explained everything to me! Great sempa! Out of the 4 hostels I have, this is the best! I'm happy I'm going to stay 3 nights! I like this city a lot, I definitely get positive vibes when walking around the city!The showers and toilets are very clean! The kitchen area is cute with a large microwave fridge! Coffee, normal and green tea are free as much as you want!I made a machine out of my laundry rooms! 300¥3x100 for 35 minutes! Laundry powder is free! The dryer costs ¥100 for 20 minutes, which is not enough if you have 3kg of laundry! You need 3x100 ¥!Highly recommended!

I stayed for 2 nights in a female-only dormitory. The bed area is not the only area reserved for women; in addition, there is also a counter facing the window (plus 7 chairs), 1 toilet, 1 shower, 1 laundry, and 1 area for the refrigerator. It is quiet and comfortable as it is occupied by up to 7 women. The regular treatments include shea butter and reminded me of northern Ghana. When I stayed there, there was no interaction between guests, and it was simply used as a fashionable lodging facility. It's a perfect place to stay as it's close to the station, a convenience store and a reasonably priced local restaurant (Chohachi). Honestly speaking, I would have given it a perfect score of 100 if there was a small elevated space for floor stretching and yoga.

I used it for sightseeing on the weekend. Easy to access and comfortable, I want to use it again next time! I've never used this type of shared space before, but it was clean and the other users seemed to have good manners. (Although we didn't see each other much) I had a very comfortable time.The bed is soft and the walls in the private room are clean. Compared to business hotels, all you need are pajamas and a toothbrush. (Both are available at low prices) There is no curfew.

I use them for business several times a week. It is conveniently located close to Kanazawa Station, with convenience stores and restaurants nearby. Although it is a dormitory, it is not a pipe bunk bed, but a capsule type dormitory that is completely partitioned. Free coffee (instant, hand drip) and tea (tea cups) are available, which is helpful. They will also lend you bath towels. Personally, I can spend a very high level of comfort in Kanazawa. If I had to say, it's on the third floor, but I think it's just that there are only stairs. I would like to use you again when I have a business trip to Kanazawa.
