Jimmyz Backpackers Reviews

Jimmy was incredibly helpful in recommending places to see and do, and was really personable and friendly! If you want somewhere small and cozy and relatively quiet, with a super helpful owner, Jimmyz is the place to go!

Have nothing to complain as I did enjoy my stay here. It's my first time to visit Japan and definitely had a great start to stay @ Jimmyz Backpackers. The place is easy to find and to go to the sights. Jimmy made his effors to resolve my doubts

Very friendly and helpful owner and he gives good suggestions on what to see and where to eat. I felt very comfortable and well taken care of!

I really enjoyed staying at Jimmyz! The beds were really clean and you meet many people in the common room. The staff gave me good tipps of places to go. The hostel is pretty close to the main outgoing area Susukino. So you can easily walk back.

Great intimate hostel. Jimmy is really helpful.

I loved my stay there. no negative comments to state

We had a good stay at Jimmyz Backpackers. Jimmy's instructions make it really easy to find and Jimmy himself is a top bloke. He really helped us out with directions, attractions etc and made our stay all the better.

Jimmyz is the best hostel I have stayed at. It's warm and friendly atmosphere, and Jimmy is very friendly and works hard to make his guests happy.

Whatever shortcomings the hostel has Jimmy more than makes up for it. He's fluent in English, friendly, warm and helpful. As soon as I checked in he gave me a map and circled all the places I should see and where I should eat and drink. It was fun to talk with him in the evenings over good jazz music. If you are going to the airport, consder taking the airport shuttle bus - it's a five minute walk from the hostel to the stop, cheap (only 1000 yen), hassle-free and takes about an hour.

Really helpful staff. On arrival I was given a map of Sapporo and marked on it was not only the main tourist spots but also some good restaurants within walking distance from the hostel.

I had an enjoyable stay at Jimmyz; the owner, Jimmy, is extremely helpful and providing valuable information on places to eat, transport, etc. and also in general about Japan. The hostel is small and quaint and has a character of its own. A great place to stay and meet other people.

Jimmy it was such a pleasure meeting you. You have made me have high expectations for every future hostel I stay in. Your hospitality and your friendliness and willingness to help was unbelievable! Thankyou Josh from Australia

We chose Jimmyz because of the reviews about how helpful and nice Jimmy himself was and we were not disappointed. Although we rocked up late, he was happy to sit down and plan our early morning journey to the airport with us, providing train timetables and advice. The hostel was in a quiet spot but it was an easy walk to the centre of Sapporo for dinner. It was also relatively small, basically a regular 2 bedroom house with the rooms as dorms which was fine for us. Also, it was nice and warm.

Great place to stay in Sapporo, very small but comfortable and very central to everything. Jimmy was a great guy and super helpful.

I really liked this place. The owner Jimmy was lovely and gave us some great advise on places to eat. We went to two of the places he suggested and were very impressed. The hostel was super clean and very cute. Good location and great value

Jimmy was one of the best hostels I have been to. It was charming, and Jimmy is a wonderful guy. The one thing I'll miss most is the down blankets on the beds: it made sleeping very warm.

Jimmy is an awesome hostel manager! He gives you more information than you need to enjoy Sapporo and other regions. Very friendly and there is a common lounge to converse with Jimmy and other guests. It was a great experience.

Had a great stay at jimmyz backpackers, great staff and kitchen, definately refer to friends!

Very nice staff and place to stay. Nice decoration! I was happy to stay there.

My stay at Jimmyz was quite amazing. The owner goes above and beyond to make sure that you have a comfortable stay. He showed us where the locals go and was a host of information about Sapporo. His English is fantastic and likes to learn about all cultures and people. Will definitely go again!
