| Comments: It was a small cosy hostel, with a nice atmosphere. The staff was very friendly (they were nice enough to make a phone call on our behalf) and the rooms were excellent! Thanks for the private lights and the mirror in the shared bedroom! We will certainly recommend this hostel to our friends. |

| Comments: I think a careful installation of railway style luggage racks in each room would stop complaints about limited space by making the rooms more workable. Better to have limited space and keep the big beds though. |

| Comments: Loved the Khaosan network - we went to the Khaosan Smile bar and met heaps of people from that hostel as well, that was great fun, probably the best part about our stay in Tokyo! Excellent facilities at Khaosan Original and we loved the free internet! So generous compared to every other hostel we stayed at :-) |

| Comments: the private rooms are tiny but it doesent matter at all there is a wonderfull rooftop with a magnificent view which is nice to relax on. this hostel is much more quiet and private rather then a partying hostel all the time. the staff speak perfect english and are amazingly friendly. the hostel is a short maybe 15 minute walk to ueno station whcih is perfect location. i would definatley stay here again without fail amazing hostel so friendly clean close. |

| Comments: The staff here are lovely, so helpful when we had problems with our flight to Bangkok when the airport was closed. Really homely with a kitchen to cook your own food which is a bonus when it\'s so expensive in Tokyo. The rooms are quite small but manageable. It\'s great value for money and it is litterally 1 minute from the subway. Great place to stay |

| Comments: This hostel was by far the worst we\'ve stayed in EVER including our trip through China. The staff were unfriendly and only bothered to look up from the TV or coffee if we stood in front of them and talked to them. The only time, the staff were happy to see us was when they took our money. There was free internet, however the internet room was unheated and freezing. The shower room was pathetic and you had to press the shower button once every 2-3 seconds to keep the water flowing, the walls were paper thin and we could hear EVERYTHING going on in the toilet next door. The toilet was VERY small and your knees touched the walls when you sat on it, the beds were uncomfortable and felt flimsy; to cap it off someone stole my umbrella. |

| Comments: Not a bad place to stay, though be warned that the private rooms are very small! Location is a bit out of the way if you plan to hang out Shibuya/Roppongi. But otherwise, a nice hostel with very helpful and patient staff! |
