The staff was super friendly. The location is great for Miyajima trips. The overall atmosphere was amazing and the place was really clean as well.

The Hostel is very well located and it's possible to rent bikes! That's great!!! The only thing that really annoyed me was that it's not possible to hang the jackets out of the sleeping room. I was sleeping in a 4 bed dorm and someone came home late with a very smelly jacket. I myself experienced coming out of a restaurant and really being smelly so I think it should be possible to hang the jackets outside of the sleeping room to make the air breathable!!!!! The staff was very kind and helpful.

Very clean, nice little common room, kitchen area, and rooftop terrace. Good location in between train station and main nightlife area. Walkable to peace park etc. Staff were helpful in recommending good places to eat nearby

Nice, clean place. We had a Japanese Style room which is a good experience if you're in Japan for the first time :D The staff was friendly and helpful. You might want to add some hooks or shelves to the room, no place to put your wet towel after a shower... (a general problem ;-) ) Having the lavatory on the corridor not in a bathroom is a little uncomfortable...

Hard to fault this hostel. Ticks all the boxes. Immaculate, comfortable, great facilities, friendly staff, good location, reasonable price and nice atmosphere. All this for what is quite a good price in Japan. The only reason you won't stay here is if its full.

As clean as any hotel you'll find, with friendly and helpful staff. Everything you need is provided. Very nice lounge area to socialise, and conveniently located between the main atttactions and the station.

Generally very good, free tea and coffee making facilities were appreciated, and all staff spoke good English which was a huge help to me.

This was my first time ever using a hostel, so I was a little nervous and worried before arriving. Everything turned out to be a lot better than I expected. I had a comfortable and enjoyable experience there, so now I feel better about using hostels in the future, especially K's House ones. Next time I need to go to a hostel, I'll probably look for a room at K's House first.
