It would be nice to have more than one shower in womens building... but the GREAT staff compensates everything. They are very helpful and informative! Sometimes we had homemade food at good price (350-450 yen). xD I think I haven't laugh in other places as much as I did here (that was specially good because since it was after Golden Week there were few guests -everywhere, not only here- and you can feel kinda lonely). Great stay :D

Located right near the ferry terminal to visit other islands, so perfect for day tripping or over-nighting to the Kerama Islands or others. Slightly less convenient to the rest of town, but Naha is small so I doesn't matter. The staff was exceptionally friendly and inviting. We all went to an izakaya one night and had a blast. The common room is very nice, thought the beds are not the most comfortable. Overall one of the best if not the best hostels in Naha (I stayed in three total).

Awesome owner, and great value. Showers could be a little cleaner though not at all unbearable.

great time at the hostel, plus the friendliness of the owner makes all feel like family. I will go back there again as I have stayed at several other hostels in Okinawa but this is where I felt most comfortable

The BEST hostel I have stayed in. The owner, Imai-san, is very friendly and helpful and goes above and beyond to create a welcoming, fun atmosphere for all of his guests. The location is great for access to the monorail (which connects to the airport) and inter-island ferries, and free bicycle rental brings all the main sights within easy distance. The kitchen was clean and fully stocked, but we never had to use it because Imai-san made dinner almost every night! It really felt like home!

The owner of this hostel is the nicest man ever! So helpful and friendly. The rooms are a little run down but that seems to be the norm in Naha. I would stay here again.
