This was honestly one of the best hostels I have been to. Everyone was super helpful and sweet, the bed was comfy and peaceful. Amenities were provided and the location was pretty good (close to the bus stops). Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic place. Very cleans and brilliant staff. Little bit of a walk from the nearest metro, but don’t let that put you off. Couldn’t recommend it enough!

Nice guesthouse, staff is very friendly, breakfast is good too. The nearest metro station is about 15-20 minutes walk, but there’s bus stops. Lawson 5 minutes away from the guesthouse. Enjoyed my stay there

Very good, most of the staff in the hotel can speak Chinese, especially suitable for foreigners and Chinese tourists. It is close to the 2nd and 3rd arbor of Kiyomizu Temple, but the scenery on the way to the hotel is also good, very Japanese. The road nearby is a little steep, so be prepared to use up some energy.

The room was very clean. I stayed in a bunk bed for four people. Free bread, fruit, juice and yogurt were provided for breakfast. The boss and his wife were also very nice. There were many foreigners staying here. Everyone was very polite and well-mannered. I will consider staying here again next time.
