I stayed here for 2 weeks. It was an amazing experience, I made new friends here. The bed was a little small, the locker made noise whenever I opened and closed it. So, sleeping near the bed means you’ll end up getting your sleep disturbed as people have to open and close the lockers. The cafe had scrumptious food. Upstairs lounge area is comfortable to hang, work or have a chit chat with fellow travelers. Loved the neighborhood. You can see the sumida river from the window.
Really solid for a classic hostel. The 8 person mixed gender dorm room is clean, each bed is surrounded by privacy curtains which really help with the noise/light. The AC works great! The staff is all so friendly and kind. It’s on a quiet side street and it was really nice to come back to a less busy part of town each night for some calmness.
I ordered the rigatoni because they were the only dish on the menu that caught my attention and, most importantly, they did not have the spicy symbol. Since I have stomach issues, I chose them thinking it was a safe option. Unfortunately, the pasta turned out to be spicy. When I pointed this out to the waiter, he denied that it was spicy instead of checking or being helpful. I’m giving two stars because the pasta was well cooked and the ingredients were of good quality. However, the bartender’s attitude was not appropriate toward a customer who was simply pointing out a mistake on the menu, especially regarding something as important as spiciness.
(It’s me again, if you recognise the pictures😂 I hope Sora also had a laugh when he heard about the review that I made about him on booking) Everything about this hostel was perfect! The location is great, the room is spacious, and the bed is both comfortable and clean. The bathroom is always well maintained, and the shower facilities are excellent, strong water pressure, and the shampoo and body wash smell amazing. The overall vibe of the hostel and the surrounding area is fantastic. The staff were incredibly friendly and easygoing, and lots of them are looking very fashionable. Special mention to the tall guy with golden hair who helped me extend my stay, he was super cool and even tried (and struggled ) to pronounce my mandarin name haha, which made me smile. The common area has a very relaxed, chill atmosphere, with free coffee and tea available for everyone. I truly loved my stay here and would absolutely come back.
I stayed at Nui for one week and it is an amzing hostel. Very clean, and tidy, beds were comfortable and the showers were also very nice. Staff was helpful and accommodating. They have a nice rooftop area and a great common room. For solo traveling it is not the most social hostel as it is up to you to meet people and plan your nights out. That being said I had no trouble meeting some great people and finding things to do around the city. If you are planning to go out for a late night it is best to do as a group of 3 or 4 as the taxis back from the main tourist areas will be quite expensive alone. All in all I would 100% recommend this hostel.
