“A gorgeous old building with super friendly staff and a community vibe.”

Beautifully restored traditional building. Friendly and inclusive. A free drink at the bar each night!

“Beautiful guesthouse in a quiet area”

Clean and spacious showers, lovely old house with traditional details, good hairdryers, good airconditioning, surprisingly comfortable bunks

“The dream way to start any trip to Japan.”

Literal perfection. Like step backing in time.

“Social hub that is cozy, homely and down to earth.”

This is a hostel that doubles as a social hub, and that’s a good thing. Everything is communal, which creates a cozy, homely, and down-to-earth atmosphere. For solo travelers, it’s a great place to make meaningful connections, whether in the resting area or the lounge, where you can choose to eat together with other travelers. You can even get a warm, freshly made breakfast for a small fee, and there are washing machines available as well for a small fee. The hosts were very social, welcoming, and helpful. By the way, the place is genuinely beautiful, just like in the photos. In terms of location, it’s situated in an area surrounded by sentōs (Japanese bathhouses), which is perfect for anyone wanting to experience that side of Japanese culture. If that’s not your thing, there are also private shower stalls available inside the hostel (for those who are wondering).

Simply love this place. It was my second time staying there and I'm definitely going to return. It's an old, cozy Japanese town house, centrally located in the middle of Tokyo. There are not many rooms so that it is usually really quiet, clean and the people are really nice.

Everything :)

It was affordable. The neighbourhood was nice. The beds were quite comfortable and big for a bunk bed. I was happy with the beds. The bathroom and the shower were clean everytime I used them.

“My best hostel experience amongst many I've stayed in across many countries.”

The property is beautiful, the location is accessible for transit and food, the staff were lovely, the privacy curtains around each bed were great, the amount of storage provided for each bed in addition to secure locker were great, the electrical outlet access was perfect, the shared areas were clean and well set up.

“Amazing hostel in an old traditional house I'm Tokyo”

Such a lovely hostel in Tokyo, located in a renovated traditional house. The location near Ueno station is top notch, with great recommendations of activities and restaurants shared by the staff, who's absolutely lovely. The place is super clean, the kitchen is well equipped, the bed are comfy, all great ! Be sure to take the delicious breakfast and to have a drink at the bar ! Really a gem in Tokyo !

“Do not skip out on Ueno or this hostel”

Honestly a great hostel with lots to offer outside of its location. Good space in the room even with a mixed dorm, privacy with curtains, perpetrated plugs, lockers and lots of bed space for suitcases was a bonus. Solid bar and a very tasty breakfast that shouldn't be missed. Lovely staff.

Traditional Japanese style, beautiful garden, very nic and friendly staff

I met nice people in this guesthouse. Staff is very friendly.

“Decent stay in an old house”

It has a pretty garden and it’s quite a unique stay.

“Fabulous!”

Traditional style, beautifully maintained

The staff, the facilities, all of it was exceptional.

“A unique experience, a great location, and the friendliest staff”

The building itself is really cool, it’s all wood and built in a traditional Japanese style. The garden was beautiful. The staff were all really lovely and smiley, and spoke good English which was helpful. The location for me was amazing, not right in the center of Tokyo but in a quiet neighbourhood with lots of cafes and bakeries nearby.

Really love this guesthouse, feel very cozy, warm and welcoming

Breakfast fantastic, location great, building wonderful

“Loved the vibe here!! 😍”

Superb accoms!!! The staff really made an effort to engage you in conversations and they even had a bar where you could mingle with other travelers over a drink or two! 🥰 Bed was also really comfortable and toilets were very clean! 💯 Would not hesitate to come back the next time I’m in Tokyo!

“Fantastic facilities and location!”

Great location! A quiet neighborhood, yet easily accessible and close to downtown. The train station is just down the street. Will absolutely stay here again when I return to Tokyo. Rooms were spotless, private, and quiet. Everything exceeded expectations... We really enjoyed our stay.
