Staff is great and they have all the amenities promised. If booking a private room, book the tatami room and futons not the western bedroom, the mattress springs are deadly. Air conditioners are pretty dusty and have some mold, they could use a cleaning. But overall it's a excellent place to stay on a budget. ##### kyle Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katja Jun 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I loved the stay. Everyone was really pleasant. House rules made sense and kept everything in shape to be usable for eveyone. I loved the simpleness and at the same time it was cosy and welcoming. Neighborhood felt safe The busstation was 2 min. waking. All in all great value for the price. We would come again. ##### Katja Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Hidemura Dec 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Except check-in late and checkout early ,others are ok ##### Hidemura Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kadir Apr 9, 2025 Liked: Amenities Nice Japanese experience. Thank you Kyoto ##### Kadir Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Lea Sep 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities I like that I get to experience a nice Kyoto neighborhood. The service could be improved. I felt like the staffs were not friendly every time I said hi. They also turn off the AC in the middle of the might and even if it runs, it’s usually very light so I try to turn on the fan at the same time to avoid sweating. However, it’s hard to sleep due to the fan noises. ##### Lea Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### chizuki Feb 18, 2026 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities 鍵を朝返したのに、返却がないとメールがきました。 返信がないと盗難届を出すとまで記載がありましました。 その後何もなかったように、鍵受け取りましたと返信がありましまた。 勘違いはあると思いますが、私も紛失したかと不安になりましたので、勘違いでした。とひと言言ってほしかったです。 ##### chizuki Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin Nov 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities First time at a hostel, it was very chill. ##### Justin Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### jonathan alonso Sep 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Todo bien ##### jonathan alonso Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrea Apr 30, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Atención despersonalizada y sucio Cuando llegamos había un olor en el piso de abajo muy desagradable, ahí mismo se encuentra la ducha, por lo que no nos dió confianza bañarnos. Nunca encontramos a nadie para reportarlo y como íbamos a estar más días, decidimos cambiar de hotel. A lo que tampoco hubo nadie para revisar que habíamos hecho el check out antes. ##### Andrea Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### としみつ Oct 27, 2024 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities 快適に過ごせたのですが、 共同部屋のとなり客が、朝4時~7時に小声で礼拝?を2日間されて、少し困った。 異文化体験と思えば、面白いかも。 ##### としみつ Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Zhanglei Aug 19, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 狭い。過ごしにくい ##### Zhanglei Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 4, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 一人旅 快適に滞在できた ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 19, 2020 部屋が少し寒く、リビングもストーブのみで部屋全体がなかなか暖まらない ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Danny Jan 6, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pour petits budgets Parfait pour les étudiants et les petits budgets.

The staff were all amazing and extremely helpful and friendly in suggesting things to see and do as well as just socialising and helping with booking transport etc. The hostel is quite old and the dorms especially are very minimalistic and somewhat run down. There was some issue with the air conditioning one of the nights, but it was sorted out for the next night. The bathrooms and showers were clean and there was a nice common area. The kitchen had the needed amenities, and I really liked the fact that they let you use the shower and kitchen even after you check out. It creates a very hospitable, generous, welcoming feeling :) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hannah Sep 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great staff, fun stay Personally, I loved this location. It was quiet, had plenty of convenience stores around, and the living area was so cozy. I can see how people not prepared for something minimalist may not enjoy this hotel, but I thought it was so fun. It almost reminded me of a summer camp, and the staff was super friendly! ##### Hannah Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 19, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 特に困る事もなく安く泊まれたので満足です。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 5, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect stay for the price.

Vi sov i et traditionelt japansk værelse med tatami måtter og futons. Komforten er ikke helt i top, så man skal tage det som en oplevelse. Der er to toiletter og to brusebade, så hvis der er mange gæster, kunne der godt blive kø. Udemærket wifi og aircondition på værelset. Man skal huske sit eget håndklæde. ##### Mathias Lyngby Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2019
