"Overall fantastic with unique yet very relaxing atmosphere, being surrounded by books, it feels like I can spend my afternoon/evening there reading books with some good drinks and light snacks ordered from the bar. The location is good, within walking distance to happening streets as well as the busy shinjuku station. Definitely will recommend it to friends who are visiting Tokyo in future times."

"Stayed 5 nights at IMNAO Tokyo Hostel. Very satisfied with my stay. The place was very clean and especially their toilet was clean as well. Cafe was pretty cool too. Distance from Shinjuku sanchome station to hostel is around 5mins walk, Walking to Shinjuku main station is around 10 to 12 mins walk. There are many restaurants nearby and there are family mart as well, What impressive me most was hostel staff going extra mile in helping to searching information of places of interesting in Tokyo and jot down every single direction( like how to take the train) and they super friendly. THUMBS UP to the staff of IMANO. Highly recommend stay in Tokyo."

"I have visited many different hostels during my stays in Tokyo, Nui is one of the best in terms of quiality of intstalations and services, the common area is ideal for planning your trip, studying, reading or working whatever is your personal case. Also for the ones who like to prepare their own meals they have a fully functional kitchen and prepare delicious and affordable food at their restaurant / bar. The staff are attentive and helpful and they really keep the instalations clean. Location is not the best but is quiet, with river views and close to main tourist attractions. Thanks Nui. I will be back, "

"My husband and I stayed in a mixed dorm at Sakura Hostel Asakusa for 5 nights during our recent stay in Tokyo. Although I agree with others that the directions to the hostel are a bit flimsy (they break down once you reach Senso-ji in step 7/8), those in combination with the map made it so that we were able to relatively easily find the hostel. One great thing about this hostel is that it's close to each of the two subway providers that operate in Tokyo, which helps keep transportation costs down as you don't need to pay two separate fares because you can pick whichever provider is best for you. The main lobby area of Sakura features several computers as well as free wi-fi (restricted to this area),a tv, washers & dryers for your clothing and a kitchen that was well stocked with utensils for cooking. Although this area was used by a lot of travelers, it was always clean and never felt too crowded. Only downside that we experienced is that at times the internet was UNBEARABLY slow on our laptop, which was frustrating because we could see some people streaming video but we couldn't even check our email! As for the dorms, we found the room rather cramped - the ceilings were extremely low and the walls were dark, so it made the room feels a bit like a jail cell. The beds also lacked a bit of padding and could be quite hard, though not so bad that we were unable to sleep! Atmosphere was definitely lacking in our room, although we did appreciate that each bed had its own personal reading light and that there were cubbies/lockers in the room for storing valuables (but bring your own lock!). Nothing wrong with the rooms, just not as nice as the rest of the hostel. Bathrooms were very clean, and showers offered good privacy. Just wish they provided more ledges for putting your stuff - the on basket was very high and not very convenient. Overall, a pleasant stay for great value in Tokyo. We liked the area and would stay at this hostel again. "

"Almond was a great stay! Location was great. Loved the vibe, very cool, contemporary, artsy/hipster area just outside the main Shibuya city. 2 mins from 2 different subway stops which connected us to all of Tokyo. I was SO impressed with check in - super efficient process, a run through of everything we needed to know on an info sheet which we could keep with us during our stay. Beautiful cafe space downstairs where reception and staff are. The hostel entrance is actually separate from the cafe, around the corner, so you do have to go outside to enter the lounge/cafe hang out space, but we didn't find this an inconvenience at all. Our dorm was 24 beds, but it didn't feel too full at all. Space is so efficiently used, clean, minimal and beautiful. Space for your suitcases to lock in etc. One thing we missed was a kitchen space - there is no fridge, sink, pantries, dishes so this did mean buying a bit more food out or having to ask the cafe for cutlery etc. Amazing stay over all!"

"1. When I get into my room around 10 minutes, staff knocked the door for checking the scratches on the toilet which may be caused by last customers, they should check this before checkin or after checkout, what an unprofessional and impolite act. 2. When I was using my computer in public area at the first floor, there are some tourists drinking and playing card, and even play rugby on the street and dance at the lobby, I could understand this is normal having some noise at public area, but these people act like they are in the loud night club. What most disappointed me is the staff stand there and didn’t come out to control all these things. I think this circumstance may also let this hotel become low quality/ bad experience / unprofessional service to stay in Tokyo. I have visited Tokyo for many times, I highly not recommend this hotel. I would rather find other hotels near Tokyo station."

"The location is close to a nearby Metro Station so navigating your way around busy Tokyo is easier. All the staff here were amazingly friendly, kind and helpful. The facilities were always clean (and there is a bath at this hostel which was great to soak in if you were sore from a big day of trekking around the city). There's a cafe/bar on the bottom floor of the hostel which had a relaxed vibe to it and the free breakfast was an added bonus. The beds were comfortable with ample storage for your belongings. This was by far one of my favourite places to stay during my trip through Japan, I would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Tokyo."
