Great place to stay.

The hostel is really clean! The staff is super friendly and they let me check in a bit before time since I was not feeling well!! Thanks for that :D The staff was also smiling and kind. They were able to give recommendations about where to eat and what to see.

全体的にきれいだった。 布団がふかふかで最高! 外国の方向けのせいか?ベッド以外は土足なのが面倒だった。荷物置き場はあるけど、二段ベッドの下を1つ空けただけなので地面で荷物広げるのに抵抗ある人は難しい。かがむので腰が痛い。 ハンガーとそれを掛ける場所がないのは困る。 朝ごはんサービスのお茶漬けはありがたかった。おかずを買えばバリエーション広がる。

3人部屋をアップグレードして貰い別館の4人部屋に4泊しましたが、広くて清潔でまた洗濯乾燥機に洗濯洗剤まで付いていて大変重宝しました。 格安のホステルタイプなので設備や清潔度が心配でしたが、むしろ下手なビジネスホテルに泊まるよりずっと良かったです。是非次回も利用したいと思います。

受付にスタッフがたむろし、大声(奇声)でくだらない話をしてうるさくて仕方ない。ここのオーナーはいないのか?ゲストハウスではないのか?スタッフの管理をしっかりしたほうがいい。とても不快だった。二度と利用しない。誰にも勧めない。

Fukuoka on the cheap

Great, relatively inexpensive spot in Fukuoka. They have all of the basic accommodations and are very clean. Not exactly close proximity to the subway but still walkable. The staff was helpful and I never felt accosted by the other guests.
