JGH is by far the cheapest accommodation in all Japan, so you should expect the most basic accommodation. My boyfriend and I stayed in a twin private room for 13 euros per night per person, which is a bargain, but the room was tiny, about 2.5m long and 1,5m wide, really narrow. We left the hostel at 7 or 8am and return at 9pm so we only slept there and it was fine, but if you plan to spend more time relaxed in the hostel you may want to pay a little extra. JGH is well connected to Tokyo centre Leire, from Spain ~ 14th Mar 2010

Cheaper than most, a lot of amenities that presumbly many others would not offer, staff is good. Rooms are tight, bed may be too stiff for some but I don't mind it... Great shower and did I mention that they have a heated toilet seat...Ohhhh Yeah! I'm actually STILL staying here at the moment, over my initial scheduled stay. So, yes... I'd stay here again but the main complaint for some would presumably be that it's not actually in Tokyo but Nishi-Kawaguchi. Joey, from USA ~ 4th Mar 2010

The price is so attractive, it is acceptable that the room is really really small. The location is not in downtown, but still very convenient to go there by JR. The security, cleanliness and staff is good because you are in Japan. Don't have any expectation, and you will surprise for what you have paid for. Hon Ho, from Hong Kong ~ 4th Nov 2009

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
