The bathroom stinks really bad! It looks kind of clean but the smell is just unacceptable. When i checked in they there was a mug with mold in my capsule! If you are planing on saving some money and eating at the hostel don't count on it. There is no kettle nor microwave to make your food warm.

남자 혼자 여행하고, 부쩍 비싸진 도쿄 호텔값을 생각하면 만족스럽다.

(土)の滞在

チェックインの時しか関わりはありませんでしたがスタッフさんがとても感じよかったです。金庫がベット付近にあると良かったかなって思いました。入口でタバコを吸ってる外国人の方がいたので嫌でした。
