    Amazing hostel!
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    A quick walk from the station, very safe and quiet area. The beds were much bigger than any hostel I’ve been in before (tall enough to stand up in!) and each had its own safe box and storage space. The facilities (kitchen, toilets, lounge areas) were clean and comfortable, and there were small towels that you could use for free or bigger ones for rent. As a bonus, there are CATS !! who are very friendly. The owners are nice people as well.

    Bright smiley staff and two adorable little cats made the place feel super welcoming from the get go. I really liked the interior design and clear signage to get around the building too. Surprisingly quiet for how central it is, and only 5 min walk from 7-eleven. Also appreciated the free tram tickets!

    The hotel does not provide the free toothbrush and bath towel, and you need to buy with the corns. Although the price is not expensive, it is not convenient sometimes. I strong the hotel provide these thing in the future.

    The service is very well. The hotel is very clear. I feel very comfortable.

    The instruction to come to hostel is so long and in detail explained that you almost because of that can’t find it . Really easy use google and find the entrance. It is a bit funny entrance .

    The hostel is well located , next to station ( walkable ) really clean and you get a nice friendly welcome and small present ( free metro card 2 ways ) all is really organized . Definitely come back .

    No complaints 😁

    Iruka Hostel is definitely one of the best hostels I’ve ever been to. With the plethora of amenities, the whole environment is friendly and a great space to stay after a tiring day. We stayed in a mixed dormitory and it was spacious, comfortable, and quiet. The showers, bathrooms, and kitchen space were also really nice and pleasant to use.

    - Expensive - Not very social - Considering the cost it's not the best service e.g. you can't use the shared space after checkout (which is quite early), no proper luggage storage, no free tea or coffee

    - Spacious pod and very clean hostel - Close to the station

    The room wasn't sound proof , when groups of people came for checkin at night it was little bit noisy, also if you bring large suitcase it could be hassle since no elevator available, but other than that everyting is great.

    Staffs are friendly and helpful, they gave me free tram ticket for 2 rides and help me to print some papers for free. I like the bunk ceiling is high and not to cramped (i even can stand in my bed bunk ), and alll the facilities are sparkling clean and modern

    Hostel stays at 4th fl., no elevator, but owner fully support for helping. - Improve on cleaning main entrance & stairway with more hostel's sign

    Superb friendly services that hard to find from others. - Good view in front of Toyama land mark. - Share bath room with private section, unlike those old hostel that really share sale room bathing. - Clean & comfirt, hotel alike

    Hostel stays on 4 fl., no elevator, not good for carry big luggages (understand mostly are bag pack), but hotel owner willing to help. - Improve or clean hostel's main entrance area & common stair way for a better impression, (understand it hard to manage), but it coused some scare to climb up without sign along the way.

    Super friendly services that hard to find from others, while mostly using self services or by request. - Provate room has a very clean & comfort similar to hotel - Share bath rooms have separated section for each person, not really share bath like those old hostel. - Good view in front of Toyama land mark.
