Probably the best hostel experience I’ve had so far! Tak is so friendly and an amazing host. Right when we arrived at the hostel around 9pm (he literally doesn’t care when you check in or check out he’s so flexible and always around) he walked us to a delicious ramen spot down the street. The area is so quiet and a nice break from the more urban parts of Japan, and we felt very safe walking around. There is also a GORGEOUS temple about a 15 minute walk from the hostel (Shibamata Taishakuten). The beds are so comfortable and he has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the price is fantastic! Highly highly recommend staying here, even if it’s just to meet Tak(:
