Dry insect carcasses and feces were found scattered on the sheets. The toilet was also not very clean. Too bad because everything else was good

The staff were kind and responded very well. Baths and toilets are shared, but I'm very satisfied with the low price I was able to stay here. Rental bicycles are also available. I think the location is good as it is close to Lake Shinji.

Date stayed: 2022/04/29No free parking, but there is a paid parking lot directly across the street and also further down the street from the hostel.The owner/manager of the place was friendly and helpful. Doesn't speak much English, but thats not a personal issue for me as I speak enough Japanese to communicate well.Hostel itself was nice. I did not use the bathing facilities as I was only there for one night and before returning to the hostel after my day out I had stopped at an onsen to bathe.It was clean and comfortable. Perfect for a stop on my road trip. I wish I could have enjoyed the common area. I think there were other travelers using it and it would've been nice to mingle.I recommend the yakitori shop nearby called Miss Agatha. The owner has a very unique and large selection of yakitori. You won't be disappointed!

I stayed here for one night with a friend's reservation.No amenities, which surprised me.It has a nice atmosphere, but I think the capsule is fine if you just want to sleep.It may be difficult for people who are concerned about the floor plan as there is no way to prevent the coronavirus.I spend quite a bit of time each year, but if this is the case, a budget of 3,000 yen or less is appropriate.

Great hostel. There is a kitchen and a common living area as well as an outdoor courtyard where you can smoke. The ladies dorm has 6 beds and uses traditional Japanese bedding. When I checked in the owner told me how many other guests there be in the room that night, it was good to know. The hostel is a flat walk from the train station and well located for the entertainment area. Would stay again.

It's hard to tell when entering from the outside, and considering the location and type of business, I guess this is what it's like.There was nothing nearby so it was a hassle to go buy drinks etc.

Hey, there's such a cool shanty inn in a place like this! ? I was surprised, already.It has been renovated with a lot of effort (and probably a lot of money), is clean, and has a very good taste overall. The person who checked in was also a good-looking guy who seemed like he could do his job.I think it will become a really fun space if more travelers come here.Bicycle rental available. It was fun running around town.The beauty of the sunset over Lake Shinji is unforgettable.
