I found the staff and overall place to be a nice stay. I am someone who loves going out so I found it a nice place to comeback to everynight! Breakfast and kitchen access was a nice bonus. Would stay again!

Excellent location near Sensoji and multiple train lines. A very cozy and useful communal space. I could charge my electronics and work in peace but also be surrounded by other travelers.
Best part of breakfast was the tasty soups every morning!

It was a good one night stay. Front desk was very helpful and friendly. The room has some kind of white noise sounds like furnace or laundry room. It is very close to senso ji. Very cost effective.

Do not stay here. This place is a roach nest, i arrived and upon entering my room, i was greeted with bunkmates who wanted to leave their smelly, sweaty clothing everywhere which over powered the room with an awful smell. The beds were not clean, there is no AC (I visited in July), and there were signs in the bathroom explain the proper way and place to vomit. Within 2 hours of arriving, i checked out and booked a business hotel down the road and im so glad i did. That place is called Agora Place Asakusa and its so much better than this hostel. Ive stayed in better hostels in Manhattan. I will say that the staff was very nice here.

Clean, pretty comfy. Staff were cheerful.
The metal join where you put you lock on the lockers is very fiddly and hard to fit locks. Was noisy when going in and out and others sleeping.
