Very underwhelming. The pillows were very hard and the faucet in the bathroom hardly worked. The showers had a very nice spray to them but you have to press a thing every thirty seconds or the shower turns off (they don't assume we're capable of turning off a shower??). Depends what you're looking for. The location is either amazing (if you want to be close to Asakusa) or horrible (if you want to be close to near bars/restaurants, considering the subway stops at midnight).

The rooms were tiny, but clean. The walls are very thin, though it's alright if you just stay at the room to sleep. It is a good place to meet other travellers, but not so much if you're looking for a relaxing place to stay. It can be quite busy, especially around the common area. The toilet and showers could be cleaner, but you can survive it if you hold your breath. All in all it was alright to stay there for a few nights. Very safe location, that's something it definitely has going for it.

lavatory n bathing facilities were clean. Snag is many hostelites were wearing footwear despite no shoes allowed sign . Pantry area was rather dirty. Sofa set infront of TV certainly filthy looking. Staff was helpful. A new coat of paint for the interior wud be refreshing.

I didn't realize how small it would be and since I had a years worth of luggage from my study abroad year, I felt guilty using up all the storage space.
There were a lot of guys that stayed there and barely any girls.
It would be convenient if we could us an elevator.
The door to the check in room was always shut. I wasn't sure if we were allowed to ring the doorbell, but there were times I needed to use the internet and couldn't.

A much better stay than your sister hostel the Annex. I felt the staff was just as friendly but they seemed more professional and enforced the rules. The smile was smaller; however, I did not have any problems with loud noise after 11:30. There is a bar that is underneath the hostel and it can get loud, but the bar closes at 11. Thanks again for the great service.

I have stayed at this hostel before and really enjoy it. It`s basic but has everything you need. The staff are friendly and helpful and will help you navigate Tokyo as much as they can.
