Stay was convenient. Although i did try to contact staff by email and phone i had no luck. But i also didnt book directly with the hostel so its not their fault either. Luckily there was somoene willing to help get in contact with staff. Bedding was comfortable enough, room was provided with air conditioning. But all in all its totally fine for a short stay. Right next to family mart and easy self check in ~ bonus!!

いつもお世話になってる宿です。 パジャマ、ティッシュペーパーは時前に用意が必要です。 休んで寝るだけならとても意心地が良いです ただ団体がいる時に宿泊すると少々うるさいかなという感じです。 ホテル側が悪い訳では無いので仕方ないですが、そこを改善して貰えたらもっといいなと思いました。 それ以外は快適です。立地もよし、フロントでの手続きが面倒って方にはオススメです。 掃除も頼まない限り入らないのでそこもポイントです。 サービス面は人によりますが、私は満足です。 ありがとうございます。

駅からの距離:10分くらい離れるので静か チェックイン:無人チェックインなのに、フルネーム入りの封筒が置いてある。安全性に不安。 部屋:扉が微妙に開いており、入るとスリッパが脱ぎ捨ててある、、、部屋が清掃されているのかどうか不安すぎる!(管理人の方に対応いただきました) 室内:2段ベッド、ミニキッチン、ドライヤー、冷蔵庫、ユニットバス。それ以外何もない。 ユニットバスの排水口から、水の流れる音が深夜まで聞こえ、耳栓をして寝ました。 ベッド:簡素な2段ベッドだったが寝心地はそこそこ良かった。

簡易ベッドが硬すぎる、朝起きたら腰が痛い。 疲れてたから寝れたが、2時間おきに目が覚めた。 ティッシュくらいは置いておいて欲しかった。 空調の使い方が分からなかった。簡易マニュアルを掲示して欲しかった。
流石に硬すぎる。折りたたみの継ぎ目が盛り上がってて痛い。
敷きマットも薄すぎる。
寝せる気ありますか?

非接触型チェックイン

チェックイン時は非接触型で良かった。 最初同じグループの経営と思われる違うホステルに行き間違えに気がつきすぐに本来のホステルへ行き無事にチェックインしました! 部屋ですが部屋に台所や冷蔵庫などついている物の調理器具やポット、電子レンジがなく2階に共同の部屋がありそちらに置いてあった。 部屋に書いておくといいかもです。 チェックインの時には2階の共同部屋まで覗かないので。 暖房の付け方もよくわからなかった。 あとは2泊しましたがタオルなどは揃っており 快適でした。 また利用させていただきます。
