What I like about the property is the cleanliness and the service provide given to the guests at Bunka Hostel Tokyo. They have free wifi, provide breakfast, and washroom facilities for you to use. You don’t have to worry about travel far from the hostel. There are sightseeing’s and food very close by. You can stay connected with the latest food trends and make sure don’t forget to visit the Sensoji temple and Kaminarimon. Without these 2 visitations your Tokyo trip won’t be complete. Sky tree is alittle far but still in the Asakusa area.

東京ではここが定宿になりました。 他のカプセルホテルと違って木枠のブースで個室内も通路も広い事が気に入ってます。 1泊位の荷物なら個室内に余裕で置くことができます。宿泊している方々は外国からの観光客がほとんどですが、色んな国な言葉を聴くのも楽しいです。ベッドマットの硬さや木枠の造りが心地良くて毎回寝坊してしまいます。

솔직한 후기

인터넷 후기 보았을때 너무나 좋은곳이라는 평이 많아서 예약하고 3일을 지냈습니다. 다른 호스텔에 비해서 청결도가 매우 떨어집니다. 변기 및 샤워실을 제때 닦는지 모르겠습니다. 제가 이용하려고 할때마다, 변기에는 오물이 샤워부스에는 수많은 털들이.. 그리고 침대 콘센트 뒤로는 청소를 안한지 꽤되었는지 먼지 및 누가 쓴지 모르는 면봉이 있었습니다. 더구나 이곳의 점등시간은 24시간 넘은상태에 진행되어 매너없는 외국인들이 늦게까지 큰소리로 떠들어서 잘수가 없었고 아침에는 8시이후에 불을켜서 행동하기가 조심스러워집니다. 침대 1층을 사용했는데 2층 침대부분이 부분적으로 뚫려있어 상대방이 불을키면 보이고 분끄면 안보이고 하여 아무리 커텐을 치고 있어도 윗분이랑 공간을 공유한 느낌이었습니다. 더구나 수건을 매일 교체해준다고 하는 리뷰를 보았으나 수건은 제공되지않고 100엔 내면 받을 수 있습니다.

I was expecting more for the price

You can have a normal hotel room for the price you pay at Bunka Hostel. Totally not worth it when it comes to price/quality ratio. Very nice location, close to SkyTree and Sensoji temple. Staff just doing the job, nothing special. There was a wedding reception during my stay - I was not informed about it even thou I made my reservation 3 months in advance. No towels. A day before I stayed in a **** hotel in Narita for few thounsands yens less. I will not return to this place.

Great place, just lacks storage

This hostel is a great choice, it’s reasonable priced and very clean. Check in was simple, staff are very helpful. The down side was the size of the locker space. The secure locker small and can only accommodate a few items. And the us know where to put your bag, peoples items are either in their bunk or in the walk way.
