The hostel is a nice, fairly cheap place to stay, with a more than perfect view of the harbor. The staff speaks good English, and the whole atmosphere is "young", there is even a cafe on the second floor. A nice place for its price.

Quality and Value

Uzu House is a great place! Comfortable and very clean! Beautiful view, very friendly staff and near the Kaikyokan Aquarium (which was awesome) and the sushi market (also awesome). Uzu House isn't a perfect place, but it was really great. Ask the friendly people working at Uzu for recommendations on nearby local restaurants. I miss being there! Would definitely stay there again.
