Very helpful host, comfortable beds and a great atmosphere. I felt safe leaving my stuff behind, but there are lockers as well for small valuables. Well worth it for a solo traveller like me :)

I didn’t stay, but it’s great for what it is. I just couldn’t stay because I’m very claustrophobic and I underestimated how claustrophobic I was. The host is really nice. It’s a wonderful place if that’s a fit for you if you’re claustrophobic don’t go there but if you’re not, it’s fine. It’s very good for what it is but I didn’t stay.

The host ‘greeted’ me with a threat - that if I don’t follow his rules, he’ll get angry and if I don’t like it I can go immediately and he’ll say I was a no-show. I’ve never stayed somewhere with such an oppressive atmosphere all thanks to the owner. He’s like a petty flatmate who leaves notes everywhere about drops of water on the floor, and huffs and puffs if he spots any…There are much bigger issues with this place, such as a lot of rubbish piling up in the kitchen daily, his stuff piled in the dorm room and all over, as he actually stays there too, stuffy musty dorm room as windows never opened so no air, most of all, the way he speaks to & treats people is very poor. I heard from several guests and had experiences myself. He doesn’t allow people to sit on the furniture after midnight, I was made to eat my dinner in the dark alley outside at night when I was sat just outside of the hostel entrance, because he said it ‘annoys the neighbours’, one day I was looking for ice cubes and he said so rudely ‘don’t touch’, shushing guests…so many instances. Generally rude, unwelcoming & bad vibes, discourteous doesn’t begin to describe him. In a country full of polite, helpful people he stands out for all of the wrong reasons. There’s nothing to do in that area so the extra money you think you’ll save, gets used on transport anyway. It’s cheap for a reason because he feels it entitles him to behave badly. take my advice and stay somewhere you’ll feel welcome and comfortable!

A lovely hostel in an old eastern part of Tokyo, where the charm of the old city blends nicely with the hustle and bustle of the modern city just a few stops away. Tak's (owner) place is situated about a 7 minute walk from Keisei Takasago station, which will be your central point to all the other major stations. Once you get to Nippori station, then you're good to go mostly everywhere. Now the hostel itself is an old style Japanese home that has been turned into one, with nice beds and the usual hostel amenities (i.e. shared washroom, shower, kitchen etc.). Tak's got style, and you see it shine through the place. The man himself is a genuinely fun person, and he'll more than likely show you around the area if he's free, while giving you solid tips. He took my buddy and I, along with 2 others to try out the local izakaya and food shops. If you're looking for a unique sleeping place with a great owner to drop your bags off while you travel around Tokyo, then Yawp is right for you! P.s. to Tak - once I become a famous author, feel free to sell the signed runners I left if you havent donated them already lol
