スタッフの方たちは良い対応の方ばかりです
ベットマットがヘコんでいて、腰痛になりそう。連泊で2段目のベットだったので、途中から替わっても良いから下段の方が快適だったと思う。

Big rooms. They allowed us to bring our bikes inside our room and leave our luggage for a fee while we toured other places in Kansai.
Toilet- I really hope they consider adding a Japanese toilet with multiple functions (bidet etc.) in the future, but otherwise, everything is great!

La posizione della struttura è assolutamente perfetta... A due passi da Gion e Pontocho, parecchi punti di interesse comodamente raggiungibili a piedi e per gli altri c'è una stazione dei bus esattamente di fronte e una della metro a una decina di minuti a piedi. La sala comune con la cucina è un po' piccola ma molto accogliente, anche il bar al piano terra carino e moderno (non l'ho però utilizzato quindi non so dare un giudizio sulla qualità di cibi e bevande). La pulizia impeccabile, soprattutto dei bagni
lo spazio nella camera era veramente pochissimo e male organizzato. Gli armadietti piccoli, ma soprattutto nessun altro spazio personale per appoggiare borse/zaini... valigie e scarpe vanno infilate praticamente sotto il letto per riuscire a camminare

The staff were friendly and accomodating. They provided information about local restaurant’s which I should try. The location was great and right near everything.
The dormitory room I was in had bad ventilation and smelt bad at night. There was a window there but it couldn’t be opened so sleeping in the room at night was hard due to the heat from all the people in there.
3.5 / 5.0
It is well-located.
Bathroom is spacious and good, with ammenities, hot water, clean.
Kutcher is nice and people can cook.
People that work at the hostel are nice.
Some people that stay at the hostel do not have manners.
Dont give Basic compliments, a simple friendly smile, dont talk. It is very weird. Individualism and incapacity to relate to others.
May be the hostel should promote events for better communication, like pubcrawls, momment with drinks for free, some games for guests and brings back what is the main idea and "soul" of a hostel.
- Brunch that should go till 2 PM, was always finished and I could not try.

I loved this hostel! The location is great, near some metro stations and bus stops, and not too far from some attractions. The bed was comfortable, really nice bathrooms and showers. The kitchen area is really nice, with kitchen stuff, microwave, kettle, a fridge, books and seating space with sockets where you can also work or study! The bar downstairs means that you always see people when you come in. The staff are very kind and helpful. I met some really nice travellers too.
The fact that the staff works both for the hostel and for the bar, meant that sometimes the reception (in front of the bar) was empty and I didn't know who I should ask for help from the people at the bar as they seemed busy working. It wasn't a big issue but a bit uncomfortable everytime.
The code system at the doors of the rooms looks very old and the numbers are placed in a confusing order, it could be modernized/updated.
The sink area on the last floor felt a bit small (two sinks for the whole floor I believe)
Please make the ladder for the top bed a bit longer so that it starts closer to the floor, so that it's safer (I was in a bottom bed but my roommates on the top beds were struggling a bit)
5.0 / 5.0
Very nice facilities, and nice people all around
Unfortunately, when I was there there weren’t many people hanging out in the common room (it is located on the second floor, so it is not a place that you pass by, but need to go there)

Excellent location. The environment is 👍. The staff are very nice.
4.5 / 5.0
Overall vibe was super friendly, people were helpful, caring and really easy going. The spot is cool and hype, good food, nice drinks, excellent coffee. And the room was exceptionally huge, nice bedding by the way.
Nothing except tiny details like : always a bit noisy in a hostel for light sleepers, sound proofing private room doors could be an upgrade, missing toilet brush for perfect confort, but really, I’m saying this to say something to get even closer to perfection.

The location and the design
I liked everything
5.0 / 5.0
This hostel is fantastic. The staff members are incredibly kind and helpful. The beds are large, there are many showers and bathrooms, the common area is beautifully designed (lots of wood, plants, books, day light) and overall the atmosphere is that of a true dynamic hostel where you can meet fellow travelers. Would definitely come again!

Friendly staff
Small common room, wifi was in & out, not very social
4.0 / 5.0
It's a really nice hostel, good location, with friendly staff and comfortable facilities + you can meet nice other guests
I think it's better to have some rules that the staff will ask the guests to follow. My first night was pretty bad beacuse it was super messy in the room, the smell was bad and it was not comfortable. The following day I asked to change a room and it was much better.
If the staff could ask the guests to keep their stuff orginized, maybe to keep the shoes out of the room, and to open the windows - and check that it happens - then I think it will be better in the dorm rooms.

Staff were super lovely, I needed to book a tour but didn't speak Japanese so they helped me organise it. Very very clean!
It would be good to have some social events as there weren't any events run at the hostel. As a solo traveller it would have made mingling a bit easier.

cosy atmosphere, spacious room, and very clean. Close to key sightseeing areas and transport.
located on a main road so street noise could be heard from our bedroom.

By far the best hostel during my three week trip through Japan! The staff is amazing, it’s super clean, beds are comfy and the absolute highlight is the cafe/bar area! Good place to socialize and work. 100% I’ll come back!😊

Really easy to reach the main station on foot, the place is very central. The staff is super kind and helpful. I had a little issue with my phone and they helped me kindly. There is a restaurant/bar on the 1st floor where you can take a coffee in the morning and have a drink in the evening.
All good

very comfortable hostel in a decent location with good facilities and a nice restaurant downstairs. walking distance from the centre of town and close to many cafes and restaurants.
3.5 / 5.0
the café/bar downstairs was great, lovely staff and great showers/bathrooms despite being shared.
great location too!
we booked 5 beds in a 6 bed female dorm but were split up into two rooms. some organisation or better planning from the staff would have been appreciated as we clearly booked as a group and wanted to be in one room together.
