The place was fantastic. The beds were real, and real comfortable. Staff go out of their way to help. Lovely lounge and kitchen area. Location is fine. A real gem of a find in Japan and the price is fabulous. 10 out of 10 for me.The place was fantastic. The beds were real, and real comfortable. Staff go out of their way to help.

If you want good location, this place can't be beat. Get a bicycle and you can ride everywhere in Kyoto - we enjoyed it so much we forgot to actually check out the sites. Staff super friendly and helpful. I remember reading other reviews complaining about the bread provided - it's complimentary, you don't have to eat it if you don't want to. I actually scoffed mine down with water first thing in the morning just to get me going. Would happily stay again.If you want good location, this place can't be beat.

this is the hostel with the most privacy I have ever been to. they put curtains between the bunk beds so we can sleep better. the place is brand new, clean and the staff is helpful and great to talk to. this is the hostel with the most privacy I have ever been to. they put curtains between the bunk beds so we can sleep better. the place is brand new, clean and the staff is helpful and great to talk to. ...Close Read Owner Comments

Hands down one of the best hostels I ever been to. Remarkable location, dedicated staff. I have been plesantly surprised with the veils of the beds, which gave a certain privacy. I only all hostels had this feature!Hands down one of the best hostels I ever been to. Remarkable location, dedicated staff.

Very pleasant hostel in a great city. Highly recommended. Staff were very helpful with storing luggage and arranging another hostel as was booked for the following day, so I returned four days later to continue my exploration of Kyoto.Very pleasant hostel in a great city.
