Thanks a lot host TAKU^^ ##### HYUCKRAK Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Abelardo Apr 9, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This was by far the worst place I’ve ever stayed at. The place was dirty and neglected, nothing like the photos, which must have been taken years ago — it’s clearly not maintained anymore. Everything was dusty and unclean. On top of that, the host was extremely strict and got upset over the slightest noise, making the stay uncomfortable and stressful. I absolutely do not recommend this place to anyone. ##### Abelardo Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Henzel Jul 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Tak was very hospitable! Def would recommend it to people who are looking to save money, as well as potentially meet new people. ##### Henzel Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Max Jan 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hostel is run and maintained by the owner only. The guy is intresting to chat with. He is giving me atypical Japanese charateristics. The cleaness is well maintained, only the facility parts like the staircases are not for everybody, especially eho are with bulky items and have health issues like knee problems because this biilding does noy have lifts. ##### Max Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jese Nov 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our host Tak truly made the stay memorable. He genuinely enjoys running a hostel and is happy to help with finding local gems and organizing outings with other guests. From kareoke to movie nights to the best local ramen shop Tak is your guy. The hostel is also right next to an amazing little bento shop, near both a 711 and family mart, coffee down stairs, and a five minute walk from a great train station. ##### Jese Stayed 10 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### SEJIN Feb 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Guests may feel uncomfortable because it is a space where they live with a host. Most of the guests who rated the accommodation low seem to be true. Accommodation rules must be notified before arrival and a notice must be posted inside the accommodation. If the host explains verbally one by one after another after a guest arrives, they may be misunderstood or inconvenienced. It should not be forgotten that it is also the host's duty to make guests feel at ease. Accommodation facilities and services are about 6 out of 10 points, but I want to give him 8 points in the sense of doing well in the future. ##### SEJIN Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Camila Apr 16, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Tak is very cool, he will explain a lot of things and share experience with you if he has visited your country! The beds and toilets are fine for the price. Beds very confortable. The only thing its not very clean! The toilet and room smells a little bit. But we had a very good stay. ##### Camila Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### henry Sep 4, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The place was usually much hotter than outside, we got threatened to get kicked out for using a rice cooker \[owner had told us we could use everything in the kitchen to cook\], owner kept making up rules as we were staying like not being in the lounge past midnight, youre about 50 mins from anything worth seeing in tokyo ##### henry Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Lauren Mar 29, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Place definitely needs some cleaning and organization. The host is kind, however I would like to highlight that I struggled with communication. A small example: while I was organizing some coins on the counter, the host came up and grabbed my money, then attempting to give me other coins in exchange... this was super random and action done without any verbal communication. I had to stop him and reverse the exchange I never asked for. If you have any issues with hoarding behaviours or a lack of cleanliness, I would skip over this place. Otherwise, decent location, close to a train station and quiet. ##### Lauren Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Narsha Apr 23, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities The host ‘greeted’ me with a threat - that if I don’t follow his rules, he’ll get angry and if I don’t like it I can go immediately and he’ll say I was a no-show. I’ve never stayed somewhere with such an oppressive atmosphere all thanks to the owner. He’s like a petty flatmate who leaves notes everywhere about drops of water on the floor, and huffs and puffs if he spots any…There are much bigger issues with this place, such as a lot of rubbish piling up in the kitchen daily, his stuff piled in the dorm room and all over, as he actually stays there too, stuffy musty dorm room as windows never opened so no air, most of all, the way he speaks to & treats people is very poor. I heard from several guests and had experiences myself. He doesn’t allow people to sit on the furniture after midnight, I was made to eat my dinner in the dark alley outside at night when I was sat just outside of the hostel entrance, because he said it ‘annoys the neighbours’, one day I was looking for ice cubes and he said so rudely ‘don’t touch’, shushing guests…so many instances. Generally rude, unwelcoming & bad vibes, discourteous doesn’t begin to describe him. In a country full of polite, helpful people he stands out for all of the wrong reasons. There’s nothing to do in that area so the extra money you think you’ll save, gets used on transport anyway. It’s cheap for a reason because he feels it entitles him to behave badly. take my advice and stay somewhere you’ll feel welcome and comfortable! ##### Narsha Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Danny Oct 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Honest opinion... In my opinión, this is not a hostel. This is the owners apartment with a bunch of strict rules that makes staying uncomfortable and awkward. Everyone has to follow the rules or he gets angry (because he is behind you 24/7). A hostel is not Just a place to sleep, its also a cool social space where people want to relax while they can meet other backpackers, but that was not how this was. Most of the travellers are adults and they dont want a strict mom behind them telling us not to spill a drop of water in the kitchen or bathroom. My suggestion: bro just chill out, get a volunteer to clean sometimes and focus more in Hospitality and make everyone have a good environment and enjoy their stay. You make people feel ALOT of anxiety. I would recommend paying more somewhere else to be able to breathe. It was unnecessary stress on our trip we would have rather avoided. ##### Danny Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Hudson May 21, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities The place was lovely if you’re looking for a quiet place to stay. The owner was amazing, our favourite person we met in Japan. Truly a kind and welcoming person who was fun to talk to and spend time with. Highly recommend if your on a budget. ##### Hudson Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### よしひろ May 15, 2025 ##### よしひろ Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jan Alexie May 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great host, clean, and we'll organized. ##### Jan Alexie Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jannis Tjard Apr 5, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Jannis Tjard Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hyatt Regency Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Tokyo.h18119.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hilton-Tokyo.h22597.Hotel-Information) > > [APA Hotel Shinjuku Gyoemmae](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Shinjuku-Gyoen-Mae.h8353858.Hotel-Information) > > [Century Southern Tower Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Century-Southern-Tower-Hotel.h200088.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Metropolitan Edmont Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Metropolitan-Edmont-Tokyo.h73232.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Tokyo Haneda Airport Terminal 3](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Tokyo-Haneda.h8080801.Hotel-Information) > > [Shinjuku Washington Hotel Main](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Shinjuku-Washington-Hotel-Main.h48635.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hyatt Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Park-Hyatt-Tokyo.h969939.Hotel-Information) > > [Onsen Ryokan Yuen Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-ONSEN-RYOKAN-YUEN-SHINJUKU.h34146464.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Tokyo - Shiodome](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Fontaine-Grand-Tokyo-Shiodome.h3004050.Hotel-Information) > > [Shibuya Excel Hotel Tokyu](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Shibuya-Excel-Hotel-Tokyu.h486569.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Metropolitan Tokyo Ikebukuro](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Metropolitan-Tokyo-Ikebukuro.h13386.Hotel-Information) > > [Shinagawa Prince Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Shinagawa-Prince-Hotel.h18997.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Sunroute-Plaza-Shinjuku.h1699407.Hotel-Information) > > [Shinjuku Granbell Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Shinjuku-Granbell-Hotel.h7737490.Hotel-Information) > > [APA Hotel Shinjuku Kabukicho Tower](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Shinjuku-Kabukicho-Tower.h11598047.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL AMANEK Shinjuku-Kabukicho](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Amanek-Shinjuku-Kabukicho.h90095159.Hotel-Information) > > [APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Eki Tower](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Resort-Ryogoku-Eki-Tower.h36831902.Hotel-Information) > > [HOSHINOYA Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-HOSHINOYA-Tokyo.h16250945.Hotel-Information) > > [JR KYUSHU HOTEL Blossom Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-JR-Kyushu-Hotel-Blossom-Shinjuku.h11899886.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Gracery Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Gracery-Shinjuku.h9104481.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Grand-Nikko-Tokyo-Daiba.h200300.Hotel-Information) > > [Sotetsu Fresa Inn Higashi Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Sotetsu-Fresa-Inn-Higashi-Shinjuku.h2184775.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Tokyo-Bay-Shiomi-Prince-Hotel.h44877300.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokyu Stay Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Tokyu-Stay-Shinjuku.h9681860.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsui Garden Hotel Ginza Premier](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Ginza-Premier.h25819.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL GROOVE SHINJUKU, A PARKROYAL Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Groove-Shinjuku.h90097719.Hotel-Information) > > [THE KNOT TOKYO Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-THE-KNOT-TOKYO-Shinjuku.h1179444.Hotel-Information) > > [Tobu Hotel Levant Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Tobu-Hotel-Levant-Tokyo.h481277.Hotel-Information)
