The place was nice. It has a small social area next to a small kitchen. Can say what that’s like as I never used it but it looked fine. The staff were nice and you get a small discount for the pizza shop you walk through to get to the hostel. I would however recommend to those in japan less than a month to get something other than pizza

A éviter a tout prix

Nous avons effectué un sejour de 4 nuits en chambre privative. L entrée s effectue par la pizzeria, l' acceuil se fait au premier. On nous rembourse les petits dejeuners qui ne sont plus servis, c est honnête. Notre chambre est au 5éme sur le palier. Le palier est aussi renommé salle a manger, équipé de quatre tables de jardin et de 8 chaises de jardin. Les lits superposés sont des lits d enfants avec barriere, une chaise totalement bancale et une petite table d appoint completent le mobilier. La chambre est poussiéreuse, pour ne pas dire sale, une demi-fenêtre l'eclaire jour et nuit. La cuisine est au 6éme : une plaque, deux casserolles et peu de vaisselle que nous avons préféré ne pas utiliser, un petit frigo l équipent. Les douches au 6Úme sont propres. Nous avons passé un trés mauvais séjour, je deconseille totalement cet hÎtel. L'hotel aurait changé de direction il y a peu et l ex-proprio aurait tout emporté avec lui... l aspirateur aussi !!! A Tokyo, pour un prix similaire les autres auberges offrent un service nettement que l on ne peut comparer. A éviter a tout prix.

You get what you pay for with this hostel. It would have been nice if there was storage for your bags by your bed, saves having to awkwardly move other peoples bags when you want to grab something. Surprisingly I was very impressed with the bathroom facilities, very clean and nice extras like the powder rooms.

シャワヌ、バスルヌム、パりダヌルヌム、トむレなどは新しい蚭備で枅朔でよかった。ベッドリネンも枅朔で、ベッドの頭郚にコンセントがあるのもずおもいい。ただ、建物内郚は叀く、公共郚の内装は荒んだ感じで、経隓したこずのない堎末感想像するならアゞアのスラムの嚌通か、お化け屋敷がある。スヌペリアツむンの郚屋に眮かれた肘掛け怅子は垃が擊り切れ、座面からバネが飛び出しそうに歪んでいる。掋服は壁掛けのみ。空調機は廊䞋ず共甚で、その郚分だけ倩井から30センチほど壁が開いおおり、人が入っお来れそうだった。郚屋の隅に倧きな綿がこりが転がっおいた。スヌペリアツむン二段ベッドの郚屋に8,000円で泊たったが、倖囜の倧孊寮やホステル、星なしのペンションなど泊たっおきた経隓の䞭でも驚きの䜎品質。60〜70€あればペヌロッパ倧郜垂でも䞉ッ星ホテルを探せる。せめお東京でも、枅掃ず家具のメンテナンスはしおほしい。ちなみに入谷駅にはコンビニも早朝営業の店も無く、かなり䞍䟿だず思われた。
