Staff was very nice and helpful and the room was very clean. Facility is located in a very convenient place within a walk in distance to big super market and drug store and everything. Also there are many Japanese restaurants including popular Ramen shop Tokiwa. Only thing that we were not happy was that the shower did not have hot water occasionally. But other than that, we stayed more than 2 weeks there and we would like to stay there again!!

The staff is fabulous you have to remember that you’re staying in a dorm. Our room was unbearably hot while others one door up were more comfortable. The mattresses are encased in plastic, the sheets and blankets are Ill-fitting and rough. The floors are concrete, the showers are tiny, the towels are rough and quite small. If you go expecting to be staying in a dorm and knowing what that entails, it’s fine. If you’re expecting to be comfortable and cares for like in a hotel, pay the higher rate and stay on the first floor in the hotel rooms. The price was great if you’re on a budget and, again, the staff is fabulous. Did I sleep well? No.:
