1. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. 2. The location is perfect, close to Tangga Market, Kokura Castle, and many more attractions. 3. I know Japanese water is safe and clean to drink, but they have a water filter, so that was a plus too. 4. On top of that, the bed was thick and comfy. I also loved the height of the bed too.

The wifi was a bit slow

The bunk bed are not placed next to each other, offering more privacy and space. Even with your curtain not drawn, you still get some privacy as there is no bed facing you on the opposite at the same level. There's a huge locker for your luggage next to the bed. Shower is well heated and kept clean. Powerful hair dryer. You can use the washing for free but you'll need to pay for detergent ( or bring your own ). Bring your own towel as it's not free. Location is not too bad, 10 to 15 min walk from Kokura station. It wasn't too crowded during my stay so it was pretty quiet. There's shared lounge with kitchen that you can use to cook your meal. You may store your luggage before or after checkout. Please note that it's not a 24 hour reception. Staff were helpful and speak good English.

The metal sink in the bathroom area can be quite noisy

it’s near to the end of the covered street and has a pretty well equipped kitchen for those who choose to self cater. luggage storage was possible after check out. the double deck beds were really high up to allow the lower decks more headroom space. Though I was placed on the upper deck, I still had a pretty good rest and still had my own space in a corner at the base of the ladder up.

it was a longer walk and some ten minutes from the train station but nothing I disliked really.

Excellent location, bed quite comfy, globally clean, nice English speaking staff

Very noisy. The dormitory is huge (16 beds) and there are always people going in and out and not trying to shut the door quietly even when it’s 4am. If you are given an upper bed - which was my case - it’s super high so quite dangerous to reach and more than 3 quarters of the bed is open so you have no privacy at all and you suffer from the general light

I like that there is a common space to cook and the location is quite convenient from all the places (kokura castle, river walk, convenient store as well as the train station).

I got the top of the bunk bed. I would say it was a bit dangerous for a small person like me to climb it because it was kind of tall and a slight mistake will risk my safety while climbing.

Very nice place, well located and cute staff. The common area are really well done, it's possible to cook and there is also a restaurant for drinks and food.

It was a bit noisy, as they were kids next door, but I hostel life means earplugs anyway

The bed was comfortable and there is a quite spacious locker in the room (I could easily fit my backpack). The staff was very nice. The shared bathroom is spacious and clean. Very convenient location, just 10 min away from Kokura station and there are a lot of convenience stores and restaurants nearby.

My room was a little far away from the bathroom/shower room

i accidentally booked for the wrong Date and asked them if it could Storno it and book it new. The positiv answer came quite quickly in the same day. Good customer orientated.

Its a very basic Hostel. Enough for a few nights, quite close to the Station.

It has a bar in the place. You sometimes have events where locals come to talk in English. Pretty good if you are solo traveller and like to talk to people.

The place looks pretty beaten up. More like a warehouse.

Nice kitchen, well placed, great staff.

I just wish they had more hooks in their shower booths. My only negative point
