Hotel Analysis
Based on 1 sites · 396 reviews
A budget backpackers hostel located on the outskirts of Tokyo, 10km from the city center, offering a quiet stay according to reviews.
Guests frequently mention the staff's kindness. They respond quickly to calls, handle check-in changes flexibly, and provide help. The shared kitchen is convenient, AC works well, and the garden is great for drying laundry. Budget travelers say it's perfect for just sleeping at a reasonable price.
However, several complaints about cleanliness. Cockroach spray smell, old bathroom, unclean sink are issues. It's a 15-minute walk from Aoto Station, inconvenient with luggage or at night. Only one shower means waiting, and no privacy curtain on bunk beds is a downside.
Suitable for solo travelers or backpackers prioritizing budget and staff friendliness over privacy.
