2/10 Poor

UNSAFE, overpriced & will not come again
THERE IS NO ELEVATOR‼️ They were like I had to wait the next day for a man to take my luggage to the second floor. I asked for a room on the first floor because I don’t want to leave my luggage in an open space. The hostel is 24/7 open so anyone can come and go. Not doors for the hostel. Only room doors. Very very very unsafe. Very dirty bathroom. If you’re coming from the subway it is a bit hard to find because you have to take the exit in the subway so if you take the wrong exit, you have to go back in the subway take a different exit to reach the hostel. For the same price, if not a bit cheaper, I could get a better hotel near Narita airport with a private washroom and shower! THIS PLACW IS OVERPRICED FOR WHAT IT PROVIDES‼️ I could hear someone snoring. Will not come again. The staff were nice though. Kind of tried to accommodate me. I asked if it was women only, I got a nod… a couple minutes later I saw a man… they either lied or it was because of the language barrier.

Very nice place, friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, well located next to Nakai Station and in a pleasant area with a bakery nearby and canal leading to some greenery in form of a park. Had to pay extra for them to keep my luggage a few hours after check-out

Situated in a quiet neighborhood, it’s a nice place to come back to after a long day. They provide most things you need and the owner is extremely nice!

Basic room review. My basic room is exactly this. The aesthetics are not pleasing, but it provides a small space to rest and unpack your bag. Shared toilet and shower. It is quiet, very clean, and the check-in and staff experience was faultless. Coin laundry and dryer available onsite.

2/10 Poor

!!!《It’s the worst》!!! まず部屋の状態がとても酷かったです。毎日ハエが部屋に10匹ほど廊下から換気扇を通って入ってきていました。 その上、掃除には約束した日には来ず、別日にノックもなしに入ってこられ、寝ているところを起こされました。 また、チェックアウト前日の夜9時頃になぜか男性スタッフがノックをしてきて、出たくなかったのでドア越しに話を進めると、チェックアウトの予告を言いに来たとのことでした。 そして最終日、予約サイトまた部屋にもチェックアウトは11時と記載してあるにも関わらず、10時頃 掃除の方の都合で早く出ていってほしいと掃除のスタッフに言われました。準備を続けていると女性スタッフがやってきて、時間が突然変わったから退室してほしいと言われました。 全て事実を記載しています。こんなにひどいホテルに泊まる経験は、今までもこれからも一生ありません。

I stayed in a private room, which was very nice. Location was convenient right at the station, the staff was friendly. I will definitely recommend it to others. The only thing that was a bit uncomfortable is that I stayed on the second floor and carrying luggage upstairs was hard. I believe they have private rooms on the first floor too, so you may want to request one in advance if you arrive with heavy luggage. I also was lucky to book it during promotional time, the price was unbelievable.
