Big common room to hangout in and very friendly people. Bathrooms were nice and multiple showers. Plum wine was fantastic. Pancakes were fantastic. Place is fantastic. 10/10

Casey, United States of America

Very good price, common area downstairs is a great place to chill if it isn’t too crowded. I’m not sure it’s great for solo travelers, but i stayed with friends and it was perfect. Showers were pretty clean although they didn’t have any conditioner.

Meriroldan, Japan

It's very good location, and you can get nice food around.

J-tsai, China

I like the cleanliness of the guesthouse. I also commend the politeness of the staff. The staff can speak in English very well which makes our conversation great.

Jovit, Philippines

Very accessible to all spots. A minute walk from Gojozaka bus station. Gion, Kiyomizudera, and other sites are 5-10 mins away by walking. Clean, convenient, friendly staff. You can buy a bus pass from the reception.

Eyawanders, Philippines

Cheap but the accomodation was pretty nice with japanese ambience.

Namuunjargal, Japan

The hostel is located very conveintly to the side of Southern Higashiyama, the most important sightseeing district. Kiyomizu-dera, Nene-no-michi lane, Gion.... all about 10-15 minutes walking. The hostel is modern and kept spotless clean. At the ground floor there is an excellent common area with a huge couch and cafe. There is enough bathrooms not to have to queue. Wifi is fast. The staff is friendly, welcoming and helpful. This is an absolute bomb of a value.

Daniel, Czech Republic

Staff were amazing - we arrived after-hours with nobody at the front desk but they left us a note so that we were able to go to our room. They also have lockers for personal materials. There's also a Family Mart (I think) closeby for you (and me), late-snackers.

Jrsyang, United States of America

Great place and location. Wifi is spotty in the room, but good in the common area.

Brandon, South Korea

Good place to stay when you travelling by yourself, good location staff very helpful.
