The place will be in worse condition than in the photos. I don't get the hype about the 5 star reviews. This place is just plain OK. The bed space is what you can expect from a hostel. There was a lot of dust all around the place. Furniture was in poor condition, especially the chairs at the tables, which were uncomfortable and the backs were missing. There was breakfast provided you ate before the other guests finished everything. The host is alright, although it seems like he treated me like a child. The man got on my case for dripping a bit of water on the ground near the bathroom sink (which I could hardly fit my hands in; it's that small) At the end, it's just 3 drops of water. I just felt the vibe that he was annoyed by the guests. However, he will give you local recommendations. Also I don't know if he does this for everyone, but he will insist on a picture of you before you leave, which isn't really a problem. In all honestly the hostel I stayed at overnight the day before, Grandouce was much more comfortable than this one. Lastly, the location is quite far from the popular destinations in Tokyo so be prepared for long metro rides. Choose wisely.
