I recently stayed at Anne for 4 nights and I have no complaints. The rooms are clean and they have air conditioning. Staff is friendly and helpful and most importantly they speak excellent English, so they were able to answer all the questions I had. (Thanks to them I was able to find an excellent little sushi place ) ) The location is good, right next to asakusabashi subway station.

The staff spoke good English & were prompt in their replies to our e-mails. Was especially thankful of the prompt reply I received to my e-mail request for a late check-in when our train was delayed on the same day. There was also lots of useful & updated information provided at the lobby. However, security could be improved as all floors were easily accessible & the doors were not self-locking. Many people forgot to lock the room doors. There should also be more plugs in the room for charging.

Descent proximity to the subway stop and overall good location in Tokyo. The staff is excellent, and the morning breakfast brings everyone together in a cozy living room making it easy to meet other travelers. Several people on my stay were repeat customers. Lots of sinks, but faucets are strangely short and hot water would be nice (there is plenty of hot water in the showers, but not the sinks). Bedrooms would benefit from hooks on the walls or small table to set things.

Very nice hostel! I had a great stay at Anne while in Tokyo. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff and the bed was the most comfortable so far in asian hostels.

Not the best hostel compared to alot I've stayed at around Japan. It is not the cleanest, it's quite cramped, and there is one power socket in each room which means only one person with the bed next to it can use it. The showers are super cramped even for Japan. The computers for public use are also the worst ive used in the 7 hostels i stayed at. Common room isnt too bad though, and the staff was nice and easy to talk with.

I agree with the feet smell in the lounge and some of the halls. Aside from that the lounge was very lively with people. The dorms are massive and the beds aren't very comfortable at all. I can feel every spring digging into my back. Never had a problem with the showers except that it was a bit cramped (even for a tiny person like me). Free breakfast of eggs and toast was good. Staff spoke fluent english and was helpful with directions and events in the area.

I stayed at Anne Hostel with two other friends and we had a really good time. The staff was great, really helpful and friendly. The location was awesome! there's a 7/11 with international ATM close by, and Asakusabashi JR station is about 5 min away, you can even walk to Akihabara. The breakfast was life-saving! The only thing I missed was a storage room for the bags (though nothing happened to ours when we left them by the stairs) If we return to Japan we will definitely return to Anne Hostel!

It was a great hostel, for a person traveling alone and a first time visitor to Tokyo, the staff were very helpful, and the atmosphere and other guests really made my stay excellent. The beds were OK, very decent size, but the mattresses could have been a bit more comfortable. Given the closeness to Akihabara, a console in the common area would also be a great addition.

Considering that this is not the cheapest hostel in the area it left a lot to be desired. The day we arrived the power was out and the hostel was dungeon like. There was no hot water whatsoever. No apologies were made, though it did eventually come back on. The breakfast, of toast, boiled eggs and tea/coffee, left much to be desired. The dorm room smelled of dirty feet and general uncleanliness. The hallways stunk of smoke. The beds were not made. I would not stay again nor recommend.

We stayed in this hostel on our last night in Tokyo before going back to London - it is very convenient for the train (Keisei line) from Asakusabashi to Narita airport, the cheapest train to the airport. It is in a quiet location not far from the station. We had a 4 person bunk room - we were travelling with our 2 daughters. The other people in the hostel were mostly backpackers. The lady in reception was very helpful. The hostel provides breakfast.

Really nice staff. Okay location, close to a subway. Dorms were a little crammed and the dormitory area smelt a little. Overall a good stay but a few improvements needed

Staff is quite helpful. Lobby is relatively small, which turned out to be the biggest plus of this hostel - very good for socialising with other travellers. For the same money in Hiroshima we could get a much better room, and in Anne there is no washing machine in the facilities, but that is probably to be expected from Tokyo... In the end, a cheap hostel with a good atmosphere but dont expect too much.
