JGH Tokyo in Tokyo, Japan

It is a very small place. One room actually converted a closet into a bunk bed with 3 beds. I was not happy that I lost my deposit on the lock since he would not come to the desk at 7:00 am, even though he has a note saying that he is up at 5:00am. Overall, If you want a cheap place to stay and do not care about anything else then it is good for Tokyo. Robert, from USA ~ 23rd Aug 2009

You pretty much get what you pay for but by no means is that a bad thing! My friend and I were put into this tiny space but it was still quite comfortable and the staff were really friendly. It's in a place about 20 minutes from Ueno which is good as that means you won't have people keeping you up at all hours of the night but bad as the trains stop running early and while there is some stuff to do in nishikawaguchi - it's not quite Tokyo which is what most people would be in the area for.

the place is really small! the 5 nights i spent there were too much. it's ok for one or two nights. go for something bigger if you plan to spend any time at all at your hostel. security is poor imo. the staff was nice and helpful though. i'd go again... the price can't be beat :) Arno, from Switzerland ~ 17th Aug 2009

Amazing hostel! Unfortunately very difficult to find, just go to police office at the station, they have a good map. Apart from that though great! Very little space, but enough to sleep and have somewhere to put your bag. And cheap. Hosts are lovely, other guests are nice, good atmosphere, cheap delicious food nearby, very calm area. I would definitely stay there again!!! Vanessa, from Germany ~ 10th Aug 2009

It was really worth the money. Eric, from Sweden ~ 2nd Aug 2009

The hostel is very tiny, but well organised. The owner makes it clear that this is the chepeast that you can get in Tokyo. It has all that you need fixed together on a very small surface. The location is pretty far from the center, with a railway station just 5min walking. you can come back very late at night, which ic an advantage for those who want go out and disadvantage for those who want to sleep.

For those who cry about space to sleep. You get what you pay for. It`s a tiny place, but people who stay there and owners make the stay so great that it`s hard to move on to other places. The group of strangers started to be friends, together sightseeing, going karaoke.. I want to once again say THANK YOU to the owners. Ewa, from Poland ~ 28th Jul 2009
