I found Min to be an excellent host. He was welcoming and more than happy to give recommendations about what to see and do around the area.

I thought Min's sharehouse was more homey than an ordinary hostel because it's not too big and Min runs everything by himself. I stayed in a Japanese-style shared room which was quite comfortable (if you don't mind sleeping on a futon).

The house is conveniently located about 300 metres from the A1 exit of Higashi-Shinjuku station. It is walking distance to Shinjuku station and night life hotspots (great if you stay out after the last train).
