    The first dormitory bed I was allocated was virtually impossible to get into.

    Overall, the hotel was good. However, there is an issue with some beds.

    Great price and location, with a few small nitpicks

    These are all small nitpicks, but the lower pod-style dorm beds are extremely cramped. Try to get a top bunk if you can, there's much more height to them so you won't feel as claustrophobic. There is also no elevator, and the dorms are on the 3rd and 4th floor, so expect some physical effort when checking in and out. The lockers do not have a lock or even a way to lock them if you bring your own. And finally, the towels provided are rather small microfibre towels that they charge ¥200 to rent.

    Excellent location, with easy access to all the bus and tram lines you'll need to visit the main attractions of the city. Common areas are very comfortable and spacious with multiple areas to relax or eat. Loved being able to get some air on the rooftop terrace too.

    I wish there had been another shower or bathroom, it was a little crowded with the amount of people in the dorms. I also felt bad about using a hair dryer in the morning, as the bathroom area is connected to the sleeping area.

    The location was great, very close to Dejima and the arcade area. Tons of good options for local food and not too far away from public transportation. People were friendly, and the beds were clean.

    I didn’t like that the staff insisted on copying my residence card as a foreign resident of Japan. I’ve been told this isn’t allowed (as they don’t make copies of Japanese ids) but they insisted it was the law in Nagasaki specifically even though it isn’t in other areas of Japan.

    Good location, convenient working space and cafe

    Being allocated a dorm in a separate building is not described in hostel description Other than that it's an excellent hostel

    Spacious shared common rooms and kitchen. Note that the Booking description does not state that some dorm beds are in a separate building

    The doors are quite noisy and are pretty thin, so if other guests are making noise in the common room or keep going in and out of the dorm, there can be quite some noise and light when you're trying to sleep.

    The common room was super cosy, great place to meet people. The beds were comfortable and had a curtain and a locker big enough for a laptop. The kitchen and everything you needed to be able to cook a meal (except the ingredients of course, but including do herbs and sauces), breakfast was pretty good, though I did miss some protein with it. Location is great!

    I had a private room and I would have liked a bit more space to hang something. I couldn't have my jacket, towel and hanger with my clothes at the same time. A bedside table would have been nice, but honestly, less important. that's it, it was great so I don't have complaints.

    The bed was one of the most comfortable ones I had slept it, including my bed at home. They have lots of common areas, including areas where you can study. The location is great. Right next to the shopping street. The traml to the station is a short walk away so bear it in mind if you have luggage, but you walk down the shopping street so there's no difficult terrain or anything.

    Need to clean under the bed mattress. The provided cupboard is not lockable a small lock cabinet needs to be mended as it was very difficult to lock due to misalignment. Bunk bed ladder design could be easier to use. Dry only cycle on combo laundry machine acts odd. As it ran for hours without without stopping after.set time and didn't fully dry cloths.

    Facilties Clean and new with well designed dorm rooms. Bunk beds have good privacy, do not creak, and provide a good amount of noise blocking. There is a nice common area and balcony. Free laundry machine. Can stow luggage before check in and after check out. Great location next to the main shopping street.

    I stayed at the annex for the first time. Don't forget to pack your ear plugs! The door is close to the sleeping place so if you try to sleep in you will get woken up by people exiting and entering.

    I've stayed here very often, it's cheap and the location is excellent. The breakfast is simple but good.

    I don’t know who designed the beds, but the entrance to the bed is so small and a weird shape so for tall or big people it’s literally really uncomfortable to get into and out of bed. Also know that the laundry machine takes almost 4 hours, but is free! :) the kitchen is not great equipped so I did not cook there.

    It’s an amazing hostel in a great location. Nagasaki was one of my favourite spots of my Japan travel. The breakfast is great and the rooms are big and spacious.

    Can be a little noisy. The first night I could hear a child in one of the private rooms as the rooms are not divided properly, it is only a thin piece of wood that doesn't reach all the way to the ceiling.

    Modern capsule rooms in a great location. I liked having a water dispenser in the room. The cafe also does nice food and drinks.

    There is no door between the bedroom and the sink. You can hear the noise of water pouring out and the dryer even midnight. It depends on the roommate and I might have been just unlucky whereas you will have to forgive them somehow.

    The shared spaces are excellent! They are very clean and big, and the floors are separated from the property, chatting and working. They are very comfortable and available for everyone.

    There isn't much that I didn't like about the place, maybe the price of the breakfast, but that's because I prefer cheap meals. If you're okay with a quality breakfast, take it, it should satisfy your needs.

    The breakfast was great, always good to start your day of walking on foot with a healthy breakfast in your belly. The location was convenient, just a few minutes from public transportation. The port was close enough to get there by foot, like a 15-minute walk. The rooms were quiet enough so I could get sleep as much as I wanted.

    The dormitory can get a bit hot. There's one bunk bed (the lower right one) where the airco doesn't reach. (It does have a small fan though.) Otherwise no issues at all with the sleeping area. One thing to note about the toilet on the first floor (the cafe one) is that the remote for the washlet (the bidet) doesn't work as is. You have to detach the control panel and point it to the toilet in order for it to work. I raised this with the staff the last time I was there and recommended them to make a clear sign explaining this but I saw they didn't take action on that feedback.

    Reasonable price, super location, great breakfast, nicely clean, awesome staff. This was the fourth time I stayed here I think and I highly recommend it. I've stayed in plenty of other hotels in Nagasaki (H2, Dormy Inn, JR and a few others) and this is the best value hands down.
