Sadly several factors were less than ideal. For starters, having to pay for a towel is a bit ridiculous. Second, the curfew of midnight is ludicrous as there could easily be a code instead of forcing guests to be back like they are children. Third, the lack of outlets near the bed was disappointing to say the least. Fourth, the AC is set to not go below 22 Celsius, meaning the room was still hot at night. Definitely would not come back here

The location of the hostel is just 5 mins walk from the subway. And it's 15mins ride from Sapporo JR train station. The room is clean and warm enough during winter. The best part is there have a hot bath at the basement. After you spend whole day travelling around it's so good to soak yourself in a hot bath. They also have super clean shared toilets, a small kitchen and dining area. The price is consider cheap.

If you consider that this is a youth hostel, Service and facilities are excellent. However, please note that at the time I was there it was Not crowded at All, so that the Lack of shower and bathroom in the rooms themselves did Not matter that much.Another important thing: the hostel closes at 12pm sharp, and there is no way of getting in until the next morning.

The best YHA in Japan without a doubt! It's very clean and spacious. There's hot spring bath and laundry in the basement. I've stayed here a few times and I'll definitely stay again if I ever visit Sapporo again.
