Only stayed for 1 night here, but we had a good time. The staff were really nice, very polite and helpful with our queries. They assisted us on getting a taxi to take us to the airport. The rooms were nice and clean. Their location is close to some convenience stores.

Great budget hostel
All is great except Two things. 1) directions to the hostel by train could be better if it was stated in the website from which Subway exit number (fyi its exit 5 if im Not mistaken) 2) because i travelled during winter, the toilet and shower was located outside of the dorm and its freezing in the middle of the night and I had to put on my winter jacket whenever i need to shower or go to the loo. Hence it was not convenient for me (the coldness literally wakes u up in the middle of the night). I won't stay here if i travel during winter.

Amazing service and, quite frankly, a beautiful property. Everything was pristine, guests were all respectful, and felt reasonably private despite shared rooms. Laundry was very reasonably priced as well. Breakfast is decent, and the common area is very well maintained. To be honest, everything here was perfect. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

I like the location, the free breakfast/beverage and the shower room, but the bed not comfortable and I requested for low bed but they gave me bed at the top when the low bed is available after I went to the room. It’s very inconvenient for me to pack my luggage when I have to catch my early flight, also disturbed other guests, I hope they can read customer requests carefully.

Simple breakfast included which is good enough for me. This is my second time staying there. Recommended.

The private room is larger than regular hotel with nice little couch and space for you to arrange your shopping. Although the free breakfast is not much and nothing to enjoy, the convenience of the city is there for you to get nice breakfast nearby.

Overall a clean and cozy hostel. We stayed in the triple room and it’s spacious. The only downside is breakfast - would be better if they have a bit more varieties. We stayed for 3 nights and have had enough of breads for breakfast...

Nicely decorated, stingy place
A hostel is still a hostel. What's the main difference between a hostel and a capsule hotel? The separation between your luggage and the bedroom. I painstakingly experienced the difference here at Montan. I really wanted to leave a nice review especially since the staff were nice and friendly. But all the kindness could not mask this hostels true mechanism. Mixed Dormitory/Bedroom - First off, if your a light sleeper, tough luck. It's a bunk bed type style: one bed on top, another on the bottom. Once you climb in, there is a black out curtain you can close. However the top and sides seep in a good amount of light, hence the worthlessness of the black out curtain. Nicely painted walls and wooden bed material - thin as paper plus it seeps in light from the top bunk. Insomnia. I heard the top person snoring as if he was righ next to me. AND I was wearing earplugs. Sad. The tiny locker is next to the beds. You can barely put a small backpack in there. People rummaging late/early- more noise. Stingy and dumb points -Tiny locker -Locker in same room as beds -Want a towel? Pay up. Want a tooth brush? Pay up. - Tiny Showers (Shower room is excessively small yet the changing space is unnecessary large = Fail) - Toilet room - Small = Fail (best to use the lobby toilet, much more space to avoid head banging) By all means, I highly recommend staying elsewhere even if it cost a bit more.

Great hostel. Approx 10-15 min walk from Hakata station in quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed the large common area to hang out at end of the day. The room was cold when we entered. They need to leave instructions to use the ac/hearing unit in room in English.

Modern and comfortable stay close to Hakata
The hotel is conveniently located near Hakata Station. The hotel was very modern and staff spoke some English. Everything about the hotel apart from the fact that because I stayed in a dorm room, the bed wasn’t made and I had to make my own bed late at night.
