The place it’s filthy. I won’t recommend this place to anyone. I could not give them -0. The smell in this place is horrendous.

Bed bugs, bunch of homeless people in there
Verified traveler
It was so tiny and cute!!! It was a really fun experience staying there!!!
Verified traveler
The hostel was so beautifully designed and clean! Also the perfect location for enjoying this cool area of Tokyo!!!
Verified traveler
It’s very convenient to take a train. You just walk in 3 minuets. This hostel is clean. But the sound-proofing seems too bad. I can hear the sound from downstairs even though at midnight, I can’t sleep well.
Verified traveler
Good neighbourhood and convenient location
The location is perfect, just 3mins walk from JR station. The neighbourhood is young and cool with tons of vintage clothing shops and bars and good restaurant. I booked a double bed room and it's kind of small but the common area is very cozy and comfy.
Verified traveler
Student staffer Morohashi took care of my check-in and check-out.. he is friendly, super helpful, speaks good English and actually was the only staff member I saw! I would definitely stay here again.

チェックイン時に手間取りました。
事前情報で知っておきたかったです。
ホテルの室内は清潔で、過ごしやすかったです。
立地も良く、宿泊費も利用側に優しい金額でした。
終電を気にしないで下北沢を楽しみたい時には、また利用できればと思います。

今の所、スタッフの方と全く顔を合わせていないので少し不安です。チェックアウト時に客室をどの程度片付けたら良いのかわからない…

Avoid at all costs
About a month before arrival, I attempted to contact the hostel to inform them that we would be arriving late at night. I called the listed phone number multiple times over several days, but no one answered. Eventually, someone picked up – a man claiming to be the cleaner – who proceeded to yell at me for calling what he claimed was an “emergency number.” He told me to use an email address that I was supposedly sent. When I explained that I had never received such an email, he refused to provide it.
Hotels.com tried their best to assist and added a note to the booking stating we’d be arriving around midnight. Despite this, when we showed up on the day of arrival, the hostel was completely deserted. No staff were present, and the room we had booked was locked. We tried contacting another number and a Gmail address posted on a sign outside the building – but got no response.
In the end, we were forced to crash on an available mattress in a dorm room just to have a roof over our heads for the night. We left first thing the next morning and checked into a proper hotel instead.
Hotels.com went above and beyond to help us and, after multiple failed attempts to reach the hostel themselves, they refunded us in full.
The hostel itself is not just utterly unprofessional – it’s small, dirty, and, in my opinion, a serious fire hazard. Tiny cramped rooms, luggage blocking hallways, and barely any visible emergency exits.
Hotels.com gets 10 out of 10. The hostel? Zero

顧客をほったらかしで全く不便。管理者に連絡がつかなかと入口の外に外国人観光客か途方にくれていて可哀想だった。施設内では電話が鳴り続けていた。管理者がon siteにいなければ転送すべき。全てのトイレ電気が切れており暗室状態でみんな困っていたが管理者に連絡が取れない。宿泊費を返金して欲しい。
