The location and the lobby was amazing. The bright lobby with music and friendly staff made the whole experience warm.

For the low price (aprox. 4.000) to a 1 night single room, the quality was very impressive. Besides I think that a bathrobe (two face towels and two big towels was inside in the room) should be offered, I don't have any other major complain, was really impressed with quality and size of the room. The bed was very good, washlet toilet included, the water pressure of the shower was great... even the carpet was very clean. The building itself isn't old or If is the maintenance is very good. The quality that I saw, low price and location very close to Kintetsu Nara station with the local arcade is very hard think that could exist a better place for that price.

Can’t imagine a better location in Nara! Right on pedestrian street less then 2 blocks from train station and covered shopping area. Right near entrance to main park too. Very friendly and helpful staff. Really a Great Hostel! We stayed in a private double. Used the convenient on site laundry too.

It is very close to the station, and not far from the Nara park. Lots of restaurant in the area. The room was small, but it’s enough if you only come for sleeping. The staff is nice and English speaker. The room and the bathroom was clean. Possibility to bring your food from a convenient store in the hotel lounge. Good price for the quality and service. Breakfast is mainly pastries and not expensive.

    “For the low price (aprox. 4.000) to a 1 night single room, the quality was very impressive. Besides I think that a bathrobe (two face towels and two big towels was inside in the room) should be offered, I don't have any other major complain, was really impressed with quality and size of the room. The bed was very good, washlet toilet included, the water pressure of the shower was great... even the carpet was very clean. The building itself isn't old or If is the maintenance is very good. The quality that I saw, low price and location very close to Kintetsu Nara station with the local arcade is very hard think that could exist a better place for that price.”

    “It is very close to the station, and not far from the Nara park. Lots of restaurant in the area. The room was small, but it’s enough if you only come for sleeping. The staff is nice and English speaker. The room and the bathroom was clean. Possibility to bring your food from a convenient store in the hotel lounge. Good price for the quality and service. Breakfast is mainly pastries and not expensive. ”
