I left an item there and he offered to ship it to my next hostel for free. He cares about his guests and will even help you with a map of where to go. The hostel beds were comfortable and rooms/ toilets were decently clean. It is also conveniently next to the train station. ##### Ellie Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bertrand Oct 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I loved this place!

Has a chic coffee shop and clothing shop downstairs, host was extremely nice and made sure that people were comfortable, right next to Keisei Takasago station for easy commute. I had a great time talking and hanging out with host and fellow hostelmates, will be coming back! ##### John Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aguilar Jimenez Jan 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing place, Tak is a very good. Just please be respectful and mindful! The place has really homey feel to which is great and since the lobby is just the living you get to talk with the other guest a lot. If you travel alone this is the spot ##### Aguilar Jimenez Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### samuel Feb 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great convenient area although a little secluded from all the big tourist attractions but with it's own attractions. ##### samuel Stayed 17 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### IBrahim Dec 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Happy thank you for the service.will be back ##### IBrahim Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cristina Mar 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Host is so kind, speaks various languages and keeps the place tidy and comfortable :) He even helped with my luggage. Thank you so much! ##### Cristina Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 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 ### 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dhruba Dec 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A lovely hostel in an old eastern part of Tokyo, where the charm of the old city blends nicely with the hustle and bustle of the modern city just a few stops away. Tak's (owner) place is situated about a 7 minute walk from Keisei Takasago station, which will be your central point to all the other major stations. Once you get to Nippori station, then you're good to go mostly everywhere. Now the hostel itself is an old style Japanese home that has been turned into one, with nice beds and the usual hostel amenities (i.e. shared washroom, shower, kitchen etc.). Tak's got style, and you see it shine through the place. The man himself is a genuinely fun person, and he'll more than likely show you around the area if he's free, while giving you solid tips. He took my buddy and I, along with 2 others to try out the local izakaya and food shops. If you're looking for a unique sleeping place with a great owner to drop your bags off while you travel around Tokyo, then Yawp is right for you! P.s. to Tak - once I become a famous author, feel free to sell the signed runners I left if you havent donated them already lol ##### Dhruba Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Toby Nov 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very helpful host, comfortable beds and a great atmosphere. I felt safe leaving my stuff behind, but there are lockers as well for small valuables. Well worth it for a solo traveller like me :) ##### Toby Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Collin Oct 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great for backpacking ##### Collin Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Christopher Jul 27, 2025 It's okay for the money you're paying. ##### Christopher Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Burak Sep 26, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The pictures on the website are completely different from reality. The person at reception is really rude. They won't let you sit in the common area after midnight and have ridiculous rules like you have to lock the door every time you go out. A truly awful experience. ##### Burak Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rick Aug 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### よかったです。Wonderful! This was the best experience I've ever had . I was nervous about going to Tokyo but Tak made me feel right at home . I enjoyed our conversations, laughs , and good times. The bed was amazingly comfortable that I slept soundly. Thank you Tak for everything. I'm looking forward staying again . 😃 ##### Rick Stayed 16 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lex Mar 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice stay, will definitely come back. ##### Lex ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lindsay Apr 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A great stay, everyone there was super friendly, especially the man who runs the hostel. ##### Lindsay Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Walter Sep 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was pleasant staying here.

He even cooked dinner for us one night! Although the accommodation is out of the city centre, it is very close to a train station so getting around was still fairly easy. Thanks for the stay Tak :) ##### Jerome Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [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 Ekimae 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)
