10/10 Exceptional

Coolest and cheapest place to stay in Nara, Japan
Shower facilities were clean with great water pressure. Towels and toiletries were provided, as well as a free drink. Our beds we're already made for us too which was amazing after a long couple of weeks of backpacking. Keeping our suitcases the next day while we explored was brilliant. All of the staff were kind, the beds were soooo comfy and noise was kept to a minimum.

Location super handy close to JR Nara station. Staff very friendly, free welcome drink at 7pm to get to know other people. Facilities very clean, laundry easy to use, dorm room feels very private with curtain, locker and power supply. Rooftop garden for smokers or to enjoying the warm evenings.

店員さんありがとう
共同ドミトリーでお泊りさせていただきました。ベットが木に囲まれているせいか室温20でも蒸し暑いのが難点。 それ以外は文句無しです！ 駅激近、あのお値段でシャンプー、リンス付き、無料バスタオルでシャワーに入れるのが本当にありがたい。お世話になりました。

欧米の人の出逢いがたくさんあり最高だった。１日で８人くらいの新しい友達ができて、お互いにインスタグラムを交換した。 みんなヨーロッパの人なので、なかなか会えないけど、インｽﾀをみてると情報がわかるから、まだ身近にいる感じがする。 ただし、受付の人は住所をどこかの施設に売ってるようで、売ってる住所を通りがかりの人にも見れる状態にして置いている。
