Very cute rooms, the beds were private and spacious, bedding was very warm and comfortable (slept amazingly). I didn't get back in time for dinner but the udon for breakfast on the first morning was fantastic and I was serenaded by a lovely man playing Ghibli music and the beatles on a ukulele as I ate my cheesy bread on the second morning. Also, the free iced green tea was delicious. There were lots of helpful pamphlets in many languages about what to do and where to go, and the staff were helpful with recommendations and very kind and efficient in general. Lovely feel to the place and recommend!

Absolutely fantastic stay, and I love how this was an age-friendly location where both families and mature/young travellers can convene together. The rooms are spacious enough and if your roommates are courteous, you'll find ways to pack unpack etc without issue. Be strategic and considerate about the bathrooms and you shouldn't have to wait long before you find yourself a shower room. What blew me away was the breakfast though. At this price having free breakfast is already a steal, but the breakfast wasn't shabby at all. The owner is a chef who clearly took pride in what he does and the breakfast I had over the 3 nights was just plain marvelous. This place is also walking distance to Ritsurin garden and there are buses right next door to head back to the station or to the airport. Parking was incredibly cheap at 500 yen a night. What a steal. I'll definitely come back if I visit the city again.

栗林公園のすぐ近くなので、散歩するのに良かったです。スタッフも親切。宿泊費に入っている朝食(うどん)もとってもおいしくて、感謝しています。          私が行った時は、少年サッカーの合宿が行われていたので 真夜中過ぎまで、にぎやかでした。まあ、それはhostelなので、そういうこともあるな、、と思いました。

家庭的で楽しい宿です

高松駅からバスにて10~15分、ドミトリーもリクエストを聞いていただき、スタッフの対応はとても良かったです。 書き込みにもある通り、夕飯は是非お勧めします。飲み放題90分¥1,000もお勧めです。 一点、シャワールームが寒いのが改善して欲しい点です。

女性用ドミトリーで一泊しました。内装や水回りなどはリノベーションされているのかとても新しく、清潔感もあって過ごしやすいです。今回初めてドミトリーの部屋の中にシャワー室・洗面台・トイレがあるという経験をしたのですが、ドミトリー内部にこれらの施設があるのは騒音がしんどいです。部屋の外にも女性専用シャワー室やトイレなどがあるので、同室の人もそっちを使ってくれればいいのですが、そうとも限りません。

ゲストとスタッフと交流があります

徳島のPAQの姉妹店ができたということで、伺いました。 オーナーがシェフで、¥2000円追加で夕飯を頼み、他のゲストの方々とスタッフと数人で一緒に食べました。ワンドリンクついて、ご飯味噌汁、すき焼き、骨付き鶏、惣菜7種類、と味もボリュームも満足です。 ゲスト同士で今この瞬間の旅行の情報交換が出来たのが良かったです。 他に、コンセントのたくさんある大型のデスクがあり、PCを使って仕事も出来ました。

初めてのホステル利用でしたが外国の方や日本人の観光客も含めて色んな話ができて楽しめました。 特筆すべきことがもう1つあって夕飯はオーナーさんが腕に縒りをかけて地元のオリーブハマチの刺し身、オリーブ牛、オリーブを餌にしている鶏肉と 小鉢もあってプラスドリンク付き(アルコールをチョイスしてもオッケー)で宿泊費に2000円追加で大満足でした! 美味しいお料理だけではなくオーナーさんが三味線やギター時にピアノを弾いて盛り上げてくださり皆んなの笑顔も見られて充実した時間を過ごすことができありがとうございました!

ここの宿はホストもシェフも務めるRYOさんをはじめとしたスタッフの優しい対応がいいです。飯も地元の旬を何種類も詰め込んだ、スペシャルな御膳を提供してくれました。ワンドリンクありで2,000円。値段だけ聞くと伝わらないだろうけど、外のお店で食べたら4,000円超えってとかかな。うどん情報も満載でしたね。高松のいい旅の思い出の1つになりました。
