This was the 3rd time I was staying at IMANO Shinjuku and always found myself comfortable and made me very familiar with the surrounding area, and the hostel itself felt like coming home every time I stayed here in Tokyo. Thanks to the hospitality of the staff and also the overall ambiance I've experienced.

The staffs were very friendly anytime of the day. The only thing I’m not a fan of were renting out towels for 200 yen and making your own bed on your first day (I was at the top bunk). But no biggy. People were nice here. You’d see the staff really deep cleaning the bathrooms and showers too. You can also always go the cafe for drinks and they also have food. If you’re in a budget, Lawson and 7/11 are very close - maybe less than 5 minute walk. Easy walk to the station too.

We had a family room. Space was good, except toilet and bathroom were shared. No towels provided so bring your own or pay 200yen for one. Need to make your own m bed as the hostel will provide the sheets and mattresses. Mattress was thin and not the most comfortablw. Plus side, very new SHINJUKU!!

Imano is a cozy, well run hostel that is impeccably clean. The beds are comfortable. The women only floor is secured with a lovely common area and a fridge. Imano was the first hostel i ever visited 3 years ago and i will gladly visit again. With the money you save staying here you can head to the super sento (3 mins walk) and relax after the day walking Tokyo. Closest station exit is Shinjuku sanchome E1 which also has an elevator (close to golden gai).

Stayed here for one night and it exceeded my expectations. When you walk in, the front desk staff is very friendly and the cafe vibe is so fun. I stayed on the female 3rd floor and it was so clean and a great vibe. There’s plenty of bathroom and showers so that was never a problem. They sell basic amenities for an extremely low price. Towel, pjs, tooth brush and toothpaste all for less than $6 USD and free slippers. The bunks have good mattresses and the AC is very good. There’s a fridge in every dorm area but there’s a more equipped kitchen on the 5th floor. Great location for late night eats and close to all the fun and shopping. Thank you for everything Imano Hostel! (:

This is definitely hostel-style lodging, but it is perfectly adequate for the price you're paying. The beds were quite comfortable! I happened to be with respectful roommates so it was very quiet. It was clean and in a very convenient location. We arrived early and they were willing to store our luggage until check-in.

Convience store very close by, yummy breakfast to buy, good atmosphere in the reception area/cafe. Small laundry facility with directions to a bigger one if you need to wash more.

Very good for this type of accommodation. More social than many other hostels, but open bunks and lack of lockers come with the usual issues of having a very loud snorer in your room or someone who spreads their mess of stuff around the limited floor space. The place could use a good refresh of the facilities like a coat of paint, but overall I rate the place highly. Due to the staff. They were excellent, very knowledgeable in providing pleasant top notch service and support for anything. Would stay here again if my preferred type of accommodation (full height cabin style pods) was not available again elsewhere.
