This is a Trusted Review. Why?

I have traveled all over the world for the last 25 years and for the money and cleanlyness this hotel was one of the biggest standouts... We stayed at 6 different backpakers hotels in the 14 days that I toured all over Japan and really fell in love with the cleanlyness and value of this hotel. As a westerner that didnt really like asain food, the great breakfast that was available every morning at this hotel was a brite spot ( for me) on a dismsal culinary aspect of the trip. The bathing facilities were better then some other $200 a nite hotels. It was pretty much like a New college dorm apartment in the states. It was nice and quite since the hotel is tucked away on a side street off a main street that was easy to get to all the tourist sites... cant say enough good things about this hostel.. BOOK EARLY..

I love this place... Its so clean, the place is comfortable and the toilets are clean and dry..

The doors locked by themselves when you leave the room, so you need to carry your card keys anywhere you go..

No curfew, able to enter the main gate through your card key as well.. So i think its a pretty high tech hostel..

Thumbs up for this place!

Possibly the best run hostel I've ever stayed in. Facilities were excellent, staff were very well informed and spoke excellent English.

No complaints whatsoever. Highly recommend this joint.
