This was an amazing hostel. The staff was very friendly. And prime location for gay bars. Able to walk to 4-6 days bars, walking distance.

- Great location. Nearby Shinjuku; which has many shopping center, restaurant and easy to go to other attraction. - Breakfast is great ! - Our room is for 5 people, but we had only 4 people so the room isn't too small for us.

The hostel is close to all the main night life places (great bars, golden gai, clubs and slot more) Amazing stuff, comfortable beds, and after 22 you can bring your own alcohol to the bar down stairs. Was so much fun, would definitely be coming again

It is about a 15 minute walk from the Shinjuku JR station. Though if you follow the sign properly, you can walk underground and exit the station. Nice staff and relatively clean. Great for single travelers and with friends. The bed felt bit claustrophobic. Lots of public space in the lobby and on our floor.

The hostel was very clean and easy to find. The location is also close to the station and a lot of attractions. The japanese style room felt very cozy with the tatami mats floors. There is also a cafe/bar which has a lot of good food and drinks.

Great hostel but the rooms were to hot to sleep comfortably in. The capsule had no ventilation and you couldn’t turn the temperature down past 23 degrees. Also I know it’s not the hostels fault but there was terrible snorer.
Nice friendly staff that were super helpful. And a good breakfast considering the price.

Being in a capsule room, you are unable to eat or drink anything in your room. It is also very difficult to access your luggage as the area for luggage is minimal. Would recommend paying extra for a semi private or private room if you have a large amount of luggage. Also dryers are very inefficient.
The breakfast was really good and they had a tv, so we were able to watch the Rugby World Cup final.

The only problem I can think of was the dryer. Took 2-3 rounds to actually dry my clothes completely, and I didn't put many clothes in. However, it's not a big deal. Can just easily hang-dry the clothes.
Great price at a great location. Staff are very helpful and friendly.

Only one thing, I didn't expect that the bed had not been properly covered before I came to the room. As the result, I had to cover the bed by myself. Regardless of the price, I think such thing should be included as service. Please consider to cover the bed before guest check-in.
Everything shown on the homepage is exactly same with the existing condition. I was thinking that the room would be small, but in fact, it's quite big for hostel level. Bathroom and toilet were sparkle! Elevator is well-maintained. Overall, I was satisfied staying at Imano Hostel.

I hate hostel that let the customers so their bed themselves. But it is fine for this one since it is not mandatory and the blanket is so soft without lining.
Great location! Not many Shinjuku hostels comparing to other areas especially with this price. Super clean, very comfortable bed, premium toiletery, almost perfect.
