One of the best equipped hostels I've ever stayed in. Everything you would ever need is at the hostel, from a bar/restaurant to a DVD room. Helpful staff eager to help you get the most from your stay, and the hostel itself is just a short walk from the lake.

Nice hostel with kind staff, liked the place quite a lot. But could be really cold at nights (was there beginning of Jan).

Couldnt have been better. Very quiet locally on a night but that was just what we were after - makes it easier to get up super early to appreciate the magnificence of Fuji t sunrise. Hostel is very clean with large kitchen area (supermarkets are a bit of a walk away so best to go during daylight hours as the lights drop at night) Staff went out of their way to find the best viewing spots for fuji, bus info etc. Pick up & drop off to station included also! Would loved to have stayed longer!

The staff were terrific, good English spoken by everyone ... always helpful, nothing was too much trouble. NEGATIVES: from 200-0800, the front door is unlocked for anyone to walk in. The matresses are rock hard, I had nothing but back pain as a result.

Great hostel, good location close to Mt Fuji 5 lakes and close to the cable car. 15 minute walk from Kawaguchiko station which was fantastic. Staff very friendly gave discount vouchers to the main attractions. Pretty quiet while I was there though, not much happening social wise but it is possible to meet people. possibly because I went out of climbing season. Very clean and excellent facilities

I circle the globe 3 times per year, so I'm well-positioned to make a statement here: it's the best hostel in the world, period.

Great - cleanest hostel I've ever been to. Great sleep in the dorm - love the blanket.

Hostel staff were friendly and helpfull. Bar next door for meals and drinks was handy. Hostel was able to help me even though I arrived a day early. Sharing a room with three other Australia based people work out well. This was just a look see for a Mt Fuji expedition in season next year. I was also checking out a place recommended to me by a client.

Thank you for leaving the keys for us when we checked in late. We couldnt really orientate ourselves clearly at night. There were very few street lamps around and its quite far from the station. But the place is really big and well equipped!:) A great place to live in, with many restaurants ard that are opened 24hrs.

K's house Mount Fuji is very well placed to enjoy the Fuji Five lakes area and to climb the mountain. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, and the open common area lends itself well to meeting other guests. It's also a nice touch that you can get picked up from Kawaguchiko station- much appreciated!
