Price is great for its location, staff was accommodating, location is prime especially if you aim to visit canal city often.

Restroom on a different floor, unexpected flight of stairs, some noise at night, unlockable dorm door

host is really kind

Location was good

Nothing special

The location is great, walking distance with the stations and shopping area.

No bugs. Quiet but located beside a busy walking and shopping street. Nearby restaurants both good and cheap. Shopping in the area is super. Located a three minute walk from Hakata Canal City, one of the best malls in Japan. Same distance to the subway stop Kushida Jingu Mae and to various bus routes. If location, location, location is your key to a nice stay, this fits your bill. If comfort is important, you can find better. The dorm rooms are big enough that you aren't stumbling over each other's luggage. The air conditioning works well in the bedrooms. The beds are big enough to sleep well in. Free wifi is strong. An international clientele - In my room, there were people from the US, Korea, Indonesia, and Taiwan. A 24 hour ramen shop with ramen for 290 yen and a veggie shop about 50 meters away make it easy to eat on a budget.

This is a place to sleep at night only. Spartan accomodations. No real lounge area or place to eat in the guest house, and no place to congregate and trade stories with other travelers. Don't plan to cook here. The carpeted floors in the stairwell are filthy. The toilets and showers are all located on one floor and it is not the main sleeping floor, so if you wake up at night you have to walk down the stairs to use the facilities.

Good location Good price

Bathroom was not cleaned for months? There was mold on the walls and stains from toothpaste. Really disgusting… Room was too small for 3 people

The location is very good, the transportation is very convenient, it is in the center of Zhongzhou District, there is a shopping street downstairs, there are many restaurants, it is very convenient to eat

Credit cards are not accepted, only cash is accepted. You can only check in if you pay in cash first, otherwise you will not be allowed to check in. The price increases greatly during weekends and holidays, exceeding the price of other hotels. I asked why the price was so expensive that day, and the boss was a little impatient, saying that if you are not satisfied, you can cancel it and book somewhere else

The location was fantastic, 1 stop away from Hakata station and about a 2 minute walk from the subway. 7/11 1 minute walk and right outside the walking shopping street. Very close to everything.

The walls, floor, and windows are so thin that you can hear everything. You can hear people talking in the next room, people talking on the street. The other people staying at the guest house were loud all hours of the night and coming back drunk and sleeping on the floors of the lounge space.

The room was clean and the location wa good.

There is nobody on reception and the 1st and second floors smell a bit like drains.

The best part about this hostel was the bed. I slept really comfortably each night. The hostel is also located in a nice location easy to access via the airport and near the Canal City mall. If you are interested in going out at night, you may need to walk a bit, but overall strong location.

This hostel skimps on a lot of privacy measures. Most importantly, the shower feels very uncomfortable because the curtain does not properly cover you in the shower meaning that someone could easily walk in on you. The beds are also very flimsy and don't have a proper curtain to give you privacy. It is also quite noisy because of street noise. Be advised that you will need to pay cash to check-in. The facilities are overall quite lacking. Compared to other hostels I've stayed at in Japan this was more expensive than I'd expect for the quality provided.
