Good location, beautiful building and friendly staff. Only issue is the noise. You can hear everything, and I mean everything. They warn you about the creaky building as you book, but if you want to stay here I'd recommend asking not to be downstairs. The walls are paper-thin (literally) and being next to the kitchen/bathrooms it was difficult to get... More

Stayed here for 4 3 nights in January 2012. I can only recommend this Japanese style hostel. This ought to be the best backpackers place I stayed during my trip to Japan. Very clean, great location and friendly people. I'd say that they found the right mix between tradition and today's modern lifestyle. Great value for money as well. I... More

I always prefer ryokans to hotels, so I naturally would compare this high rated ryokan with my other ryokan experiences. Good location. affordable rate. breakfast on request at low price. 1 free drink at the bar each night. Stable WIFI. Nice staff. Downsides: no showers allowed after midnight. I stayed 5 nights and was asked to change bed and room... More

This is the 2nd time I have been back at this hostel since 2011. I love this hostel because: 1) staff are young and real friendly. Excellent service. 2) hostel is clean and well maintained. 3) optional breakfast for 300 yen, which consist of 2 rice balls and miso soup. The staff cook your breakfast at around 730 am every...

Thought the real name should be Toco Tokyo Heritage Hostel, Their selling point is the bar and the garden. Bar: First Drink is Free for the guest stay there and they charge from the second round, it provides great place to communicate with all the backpackers. Garden: building was built in 1920, and garden full of greenery, singing birds, beautiful... More

The perfect place for a traditional, intimate Japanese experience. I loved the garden, the architecture and interior design! The female dorm was pretty, clean and comfortable but a little bit cold. The walls to the rooms are paper-thin so don't be too loud inside the house. The only down side is that check in is from 4pm. And it took time... More

The staff are phenomenal and the place is really beautiful. The female guestroom was tucked away so I didn't have the noise issues some people have mentioned. The breakfasts are tasty and very filling for such little cost and the social experience of sharing breakfast was a real highlight. The rental bikes make visiting Asakusa and some other local spots... More

One of my best experience in Tokyo. The staff were all very friendly. The place feels like home with a really nice common area & bar. Home-cooked japanese breakfast is available with a minimal fee. Very near to subway.
