Summary of traveller reviews

Untapped Hostel in Sapporo offers spacious beds and a great location near amenities. Some guests found the mattresses firm and noted a lack of social atmosphere. The property is not recommended for those with mobility issues due to the absence of an elevator.

Hostel was very clean and comfortable. The second floor common space was also a very nice space to relax in. Not the most sociable hostel but I had a very pleasant stay here.

Tomar is a great place to sleep, the beds and bathrooms are perfect, very nice and clean. However there wasn’t much social spaces, there is one, it has signs to be quiet, and they have taken all bar two couches out of it, so no real sitting spaces. The kitchen is functional, but there is not enough plates and cutlery, as well as no dishwasher/ sanitizer, and the water doesn’t get hot enough to fully clean the dishes. The location is good, with a supermarkets, Lawson, walkable, bus stop out front
