Superb location, with three subway lines 5' walk from the hostel (including the one connecting both airports) and another handful 10-15' away. Quite a few eateries nearby, including local and international food. A few supermarkets very near too. The hostel itself features a gourmet coffee shop and a cocktail bar, and both get their fair share of customers from morning till late in the evening, but the place never gets too noisy. Staff is plentiful and friendly, dorm rooms are quiet, and beds spacious and comfy. Never had to wait to use the bathroom or shower rooms.

Can't think of anything.

Truly excellent hostel in a great location in Tokyo. Only a few minutes walk to 3 different metro stations which can get you anywhere you want in Tokyo. We are a couple in our early 30s and were hesitant about booking a hostel but the private room was excellent, very comfy bed and the bathrooms and showers were always spotless and extremely well-serviced. The hostel is really well designed and all the amenities and fittings and features of the room were of a really high quality and excellent for this price point. We would definitely come here again and would recommend it to others. The staff were all super lovely and helpful, the shared kitchen and laundry has everything you need and the cafe and bar downstairs are great little spots for some down time. Very good vibes and very good coffee.

Tokyo is my favourite city in the world, and Halloween is my favourite holiday and that is precisely what makes me go to Tokyo every year for this wonderful event. This year, I stayed in CITAN: - the location is pretty convenient, there's many places to eat and convenient stores all around. As well as a few train stations which was great for getting around. - it's a close walking distance to Akiba and Asakusa! - many many friendly people! I met so many wonderful people and partied twice in the common area! it's definitely a social place. - staff were very nice! They showed me where to go to ship my luggage to my next destination and tried to help me find somewhere to do my nails and looked for my scarf when I lost it. - there's plugs in the shower rooms for me to do my hair and they provide shampoo, conditioner and shower gel! - there's a great bar downstairs, and a cafe near the reception which has great coffee! Overall great experience!

- Toilets and showers were gender separated, so you'd have to get lucky to have the correct showers in your floor otherwise you have to travel one floor up/down. - Bar was definitely a bit expensive and closes very early at 11pm. - There is no Whatsapp group chat to look at which events are happening..etc (I wish they did something special for halloween since a lot of the people that I met were literally in Tokyo just for that as well) - No hangers (I should've asked, but I had to throw most of my clothes over the side of my bed and they kept falling). Still a great experience anyway!

The location is pretty good, you could easily get to two subway stations of two lines and reach most of the places you like. The employees here are really nice, they have good service and are always willing to help. I also like how they combine breakfast, dinner, and bar to their lounge. It is easy to enjoy music, chats, and drinks without spending time to find other places. The shower is pretty clean as well. I don't cook but people who love cooking should be aware that the kitchen is pretty small, I guess it usually only allows one group to make their meal.

Most of the time Wifi works, but sometimes I loses connection. Probably is my cell phone's problem.

Four train/subway lines 5' walk from the hostel, hence SUPER convenient to reach sights etc in in all areas of Tokyo, as well as direct connection to both airports. Quite a few choices of both local and international cuisine from breakfast to dinner and beyond, as well as supermarkets and CVS alike. The hostel itself is tucked in a quiet street, and is very welcoming and comfy. It caters to passbyers too, hence the coffee shop and underground cocktail bar get very lively, especially the latter on Fri/Sat as a DJ comes to play live music. Mon through Thu there is also a different food truck everyday parked just outside the main entrance. The kitchen and common area for guests are small but well organized, and seldom get too busy. I had nice breakfasts there every day. The rooms are Spartan but convenient, with large beds and comfy mattresses as well as lockers. Shower rooms are nice and plentiful with special amenities from the neighborhood.

Never tried it. Cost of food & even the Coffee was $8. That’s too expensive

Prices in the bar. Having to pay for towels.

Big & clean room, great cafe / bar and wonderful staff. Really good value, as long as you don't mind not having an ensuite bathroom - we had a sink in our room which was perfect for us.

The hostel is super clean, and I loved the shower gels and shampoo (which you could buy there as well)! The duvet and pillows were very comfortable and thick so great if you're used to the western style of bedding and struggle to sleep otherwise! I only stayed one night here after my flight so I can't say much about the social aspect of the hostel, but there was loud music at the bar when i got there... however soundproofing was really good so you couldn't hear it in the bedrooms :)

The location was good, easy to get to from the airport via direct metro, but if you land in the evening make sure you have enough time to get to the hostel by 11... they did wait 10 minutes after that for me though! It's super safe, cause Japan is generally very safe, but not that much going on in the area.

Great hostel in a central location close to public transport options. Cafe and bar gave it everything you needed and a really cool vibe. Rooms and facilities were clean and comfortable, and at an extremely high standard compared to what we expected for a hotel.

A few more showers in comparison to guest/ rooms. There were only 2 sets of women's showers and most days you had a decent wait to get in

In my two and a half weeks in Japan, I stayed at the Citan Hostel three times. For me, it felt like "coming home". It really shows that the staff works very hard and well together to keep the place clean and the guests happy. A special thank you to the staff that helped me find vegetarian restaurants, helped me book baseball tickets, sold me the best filter coffee I tasted in Japan, did not consider me an alcoholic when I ordered an extra shot of gin, and almost broke their back when lifting my bag!

I would have loved for the bar to open before six, around aperitivo time/borreltijd. I think then it could also function as a "resting" place before going sightseeing again at night. Airco in de bar was really cold, but the drinks really good.
