ทำเล ใกล้ Metro
ความสะอาดของผ้าคลุมที่นอน 2 ผินที่วางบนที่นอน มีแต่ฝุ่นค่ะ พอคลี่ออกเห็นฝุ่นลอยผ่านแสงของโคมไฟบนเพดานชัดเจนมากๆ ทั้ง 2 ผืน (นอนชั้นบนของเตียง)
ห้องอับชื้นมาก เมื่อเปิดประตูเข้าไปครั้งแรกและแอร์ในคืนแรกนั้นไม่มีความเย็นเลย ถึงต้องถอดเสื้อนอนออกเลยค่ะ เชคอินชั้น 18 ต้องยกกระเป๋าเดินทางใบใหญ่ 25 นิ้วขึ้นชั้น 19 เองด้วย กรุ้ปเราเป็นผู้หญิงทั้งหมด ลำบากมากเลยค่ะ

有大浴場,窗外景色好,地點在地鐵旁,有提供捲髮棒,可寄放行李。
covid-19 疫情比想像中嚴重,晚上有室友一直咳嗽。
有人常在走廊大聲說話,大門的隔音不好,不夠安靜。

Loved everything about this hostel. It’s probably the best hostel I’ve been at so far on my travels.
Super clean (they cleaned EVERYTHING every morning haha), fresh, good beds and rooms, good toilet and shower areas, PERFECT location to explore Tokyo
I think the only downside is the fact that the whole building closes at 11pm and its doors (not the actual hostel doors) so you can’t leave the building after that

The location, the staff, the calm vibe, the bath, security and privacy were all incredible.
The bathroom cleanliness could be improved by a deep clean as necessary. Overall cleanliness was incredible though.

Location has access to Iidabashi station. Room and bedspace is sufficient for the number of guests per room.
Curfew was a bit of a challenge but it’s understandable because it is a Youth hostel and it’s building policy.
4.0
Great location - in the bustling area of Iidabashi and within walking distance of the imperial palace and Yasakuni Shrine. The views from the 18th floor are also great. Facilities were plentiful, clean and modern. Overall the place was very spacious and a great place to start a Tokyo visit.
The 11pm-6am curfew was a little restrictive and has to be considered if staying primarily for nightlife. I also found it wasn't an overly social hostel in terms of meeting other solo travellers but that may just have been the nights I was there.

Friendly, facility is convenient.
Nothing.

The staff was really friendly and helpful. They allowed me to let my luggage in the hostel for free for a half a day. The location I great, is almost inside an important station,bwith lot of connections. The price is good.
The noisy people in the hostel, if you are sensitive to sleep you will not rest in that place. There is noise all the time. Inside the rooms and outside the rooms. And the beds are not comfortable, but is ok.

4.0
Good location, supply of kettle and kitchen (for everyone)
There is a curfew at 11pm even on New Year which I found a bit sad, but I guess it cannot be helped security wise
4.5
>> 1-2 minutes walk to “Iidabashi Station”
>> Halal food available at 5-7 minutes walk
>> Market just in front of the building
>> Scenic views all around the building
>> Wonderful views from 18th and 19th floor
>> No clothes hanging hooks in shower room
>> Curfew time 11pm to 6am
>> Need more cleanliness
>> Cabinets should be equipped with rubber borders to be noiseless while using cabinet

The location was terrific right next to a main train station, the staff was also excellent. They are also willing to serve anyone. They also serve decent meals at a very affordable price. So for a hostel 10/10.
The curfew but sadly that is not within their control I believe.

We came to stay here after the Tokyo Christmas Market & illuminations. It was convenient, as we were going to Tsukiji Outer Market the next morning. We loved our stay!
The only thing that was a bit uncomfortable was the beds, everything else was great!

The city view
- Interior: Could need some renovation. Mostly the public bath
- the sheets for the bed: were too simple, didn’t like that the blue blankets on the top were loose, it seemed the warmer blankets in blue were not washed after use, they were not supposed to get in direct contact but when you sleep and move that just happens…
3.5
the view of Tokyo and its proximity to the stations
didn’t get any wifi in my room. also you can’t leave the property between 11pm and 6am, because they stop the lifts, not ideal if you have to be somewhere early.
3.5
the location was perfect, the staff very friendly
I don't like the rules of this property, it closes at 11pm and opens at 6am so you have to follow these rules otherwise you will sleep on the street, the bed is not comfortable, the air conditioner is not working bad wifi.
2.0
Excellent view of the city
No breakfast options. Strict rules about when you can use the showers. Also my room was near the front desk and it was so noisy. My sleep was disturbed every night so book a room away from front counter
