The restrooms and sinks needs to be clean daily, spray solution without scrubbing is not going to work.

A very nice hostel. Not that close to Tokyo but it´s a fast 10-minute ride by metro to most of the attractions. The only down side is that you have to pay to take a shower (100 yen/5 minutes). Breakfast free (basic) was really good and also the yakissoba!

Not as good as our place in Tokyo. The area is ripe with people begging. Not the best part of Tokyo, it gets the job done as a place to sleep.

A lot of thought and love was put into decorating this really nice hostel. The staff and the people, who come to stay make the hostel worth remembering, since you will always find new friends and the staff will do everything possible to make your stay as comfortable as it could be. On top of that we were allowed to leave our bags at the hostel as long as we wanted to on the day we checked out.

The hotel's location is close enough from Minami Senju station and easy to find based on directions given Aizuya Inn. The hotel staff is quite friendly. Only the lights dim and the hotel is not equipped with elevators to go upstairs. But in general the condition of the hotel and the service is quite good, with reasonable hotel rates.

Best value for money option you can get in Tokyo. Staff is awesome and helpful and the location is still central enough to discover Tokyo easily. I can highly recommend to stay here and would ever come back

We had a great experience with this hostel especially because it was our first stay in Japan and we were looking for a place with private rooms not far from JR lines for an affordable price. It may not be in the center of the town but the trains from the station leave frequently. There are many convenience stores in the area as well as a regular supermarket. I'd reccomend this place as a great value for one's money.

Low price, reasonably close to the heart of the city, excellent staff who are always willing to help, are very good at english and know a lot about the city. This was the second time I chose this hotel while in Tokyo and I will do so again. My only problem is that I'm not used to sitting or sleeping on the floor, but this is a japanese style of hotel so it's part of the flavor and the problem is minor. Also you can usually get another futon if you ask the staff.

Nice cosy place, with all the facilities that one could possibly hope for. Extremely friendly staff who are willing to go out of their way to help. Excellent service in all aspects. A little off in terms of location but can easily access most areas with a few train changes. Highly recommended, will stay here again!

I was positively surprised by the Aizuya Inn, the people are great, the facilities are clean and the staff is always willing to help you. The only negative remark i have is that the location is not the best, you are close to a metro station but the neighborhood could be better.

The staff was super nice! They really made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived. Maho and Nori especially did a great job. For me, having staff that at least try to speak English is really important, and I truly appreciated that. I loved the atmosphere! Pictures and fun stuff to do everywhere around you, even in the bathroom! I wish the rooms and the mirror were a little bigger, but the blankets were nice and fresh and warm enough! Thanks again for a great stay!

I enjoyed my stay, but I can't give perfect marks. The place looks nice inside, smelled good. Nice staff, but not as over-the-top nice as staff at nearly every other Japan hostel I've stayed at. Leaving room key at the desk gets annoying because they are often gone! A bit far from the station but both subway and JR access. Not as clean as advertised! My aircon unit was GROSS and there was dirt in the bottom of the window. Took about 5 wet wipes on the aircon before they weren't coming off black.
