My partner and I stayed here for two nights. It was a great experience. Very friendly host and guests. We had our own bed with a privacy curtain in a four bedroom dorm. The closest big station (kinshicho) is about a 20 minute walk. There is a closer station (sumiyoshi) but we didn't realize it until after our stay. The 7/11 next door has everything you might need (basically a mini grocery store). The wifi was weak on the third floor but stronger in the lobby. This is a great little hostel and it's currently undergoing some renovations in the lounge area, so I'm sure it will only get better.
