The placement of the hostel is the best. Everyone is respectful and quiet. Also as a woman it made me feel very safe because there is a QR code required to go in the elevator and in the sleeping area.

一人旅に慣れていて寝るだけならとても良いホテル

3階が女性専用フロアでシャワートイレも同階です。知らされるQRコードが鍵の代わり。無料朝食のパンとシリアルはあるがコーヒーは有料。トイレの下水の臭いがきつく、ベッドの場所によってはかなり快適さに差が出ると思います。立地はとても良いので一人旅の時はまた使いたいと思います。
