Tak is a friendly and helpful host! He dedicated time to show us his favorite local spots in Takasago, and made himself available if we ever needed any help. He took us out to drink and eat at a local bar and to Karaoke with him and the other guests. The location is very local, cozy, and slightly away from the busy city life. It is less than a 5 minute walk from the train station and 25 min train ride to the City (Ueno). You are required to get on the Keisei-line to and from the city.
This was my first hostel experience, I traveled with my husband and felt very welcomed, clean and slept great! I recommend this hostel to solo travelers and couples because you can meet new people and get taste of a local neighborhood in Tokyo.
