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 6ème sont propres. Nous avons passé un trés mauvais séjour, je deconseille totalement cet hôtel. 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.

安いだけでサービスや清潔さを気にしないならいいと思います
チェックインの時のガタイの良い男性スタッフの適当さに呆れました。チェックアウトの時も同じ人でしたか、チェックアウトの際に手続きがいらないことを何も説明されませんでしたので一応チェックアウトの時間にフロントに行きましたが、その男性にめんどくさそうな態度で チェックアウトの手続きはいりません、とかなり無愛想に言われて最初から最後まで感じの悪いスタッフにあたりとても不愉快でした。流れ作業のような説明とめんどくさそうな態度は何なのでしょうか、とても不愉快でした、 また上段でしたが換気扇の埃がたまっていてとても汚かったです。安さにつられましたが安いだけでスタッフの対応も清潔さも何もありません

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.
