Very peaceful and clean. The neighborhood was lovely.
I hope there was information on how to get to the hostel from the nearest station. Took us a long time to locate it.

The price was unbeatable for a japanese style private room and the bathrooms were clean.
Kitchen looked very dirty and everything looked very run down.
