Tak is very cool, he will explain a lot of things and share experience with you if he has visited your country! The beds and toilets are fine for the price. Beds very confortable. The only thing its not very clean! The toilet and room smells a little bit. But we had a very good stay.

Place definitely needs some cleaning and organization. The host is kind, however I would like to highlight that I struggled with communication. A small example: while I was organizing some coins on the counter, the host came up and grabbed my money, then attempting to give me other coins in exchange... this was super random and action done without any verbal communication. I had to stop him and reverse the exchange I never asked for. If you have any issues with hoarding behaviours or a lack of cleanliness, I would skip over this place. Otherwise, decent location, close to a train station and quiet.

This hostel has a very sociable atmosphere and I enjoy with many guests every day. But I have never seen this couple talk with other guests. Her boyfriend is friendly enough, but she is difficult and generally didn't even greet me back.One day, she started arranging many coins on my desk, so I assumed she wants to exchange smaller coins for larger coins (many guests ask me such requests). So I took the money out of my own wallet. She uses this example as a basis for saying "I struggled with communication," but I think it's obviously weirder to spread coins on someone's desk for no reason. Of course, I did it out of kindness, and I'm surprising that someone would feel bad by such so trivial thing. As one of the funniest review topics, I will share her story in various interacting places from now on.

Great convenient area although a little secluded from all the big tourist attractions but with it's own attractions.

El dueño súper accesible, la cama es cómoda, la ducha y el toilet estaban limpios. Sin embargo, en el área compartida había objetos arrumbados y algunos sectores llenos de polvo. La cocina es muy chiquita y durante unos días estuvo la basura allí.

Our host Tak truly made the stay memorable. He genuinely enjoys running a hostel and is happy to help with finding local gems and organizing outings with other guests. From kareoke to movie nights to the best local ramen shop Tak is your guy. The hostel is also right next to an amazing little bento shop, near both a 711 and family mart, coffee down stairs, and a five minute walk from a great train station.

Honest opinion...

Posted 12 Oct 2023 on Hotels
In my opinión, this is not a hostel. This is the owners apartment with a bunch of strict rules that makes staying uncomfortable and awkward. Everyone has to follow the rules or he gets angry (because he is behind you 24/7). A hostel is not Just a place to sleep, its also a cool social space where people want to relax while they can meet other backpackers, but that was not how this was. Most of the travellers are adults and they dont want a strict mom behind them telling us not to spill a drop of water in the kitchen or bathroom. My suggestion: bro just chill out, get a volunteer to clean sometimes and focus more in Hospitality and make everyone have a good environment and enjoy their stay. You make people feel ALOT of anxiety. I would recommend paying more somewhere else to be able to breathe. It was unnecessary stress on our trip we would have rather avoided.
